Planned maintenance of lift stock - it makes sense
Lifts require regular servicing. Preventative maintenance will help to keep your lift in optimum condition, leading to fewer breakdowns, more reliable equipment, and in the medium to long term, lower running costs.

You and/or your company are responsible, under The Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, for maintaining your lift/s in good and safe working order. You also have an obligation to have your lift thoroughly examined regularly by a competent person, who will inspect the lift with a view to safety and should advise you of any defects.
