Passenger & Goods Lift LOLER Inspection
Independent LOLER inspections for passenger lifts, goods lifts and platform lifts across Scotland, with competent-person reports.
What duty holders need to know.
Passenger, goods and platform lifts rely on suspension, drive, doors, interlocks, controls and safety devices that must work as a system. A maintenance visit does not replace an independent thorough examination of continued safe use.
Building owners, employers and facilities managers should maintain a current examination schedule and give the competent person access to machinery spaces, landings and relevant records.
Check the relevant HSE guidance ↗What we examine on passenger and goods lifts.
The final scope depends on design, use and condition. These are the components and records commonly considered.
- Suspension and drive arrangements
- Car, platform and supporting structure
- Landing and car doors
- Interlocks and safety circuits
- Controls, alarms and emergency communication
- Overspeed and final-limit devices
- Levelling and stopping accuracy
- Identification, rated load and passenger limits
Problems the examination may identify.
