Safe, smooth movement for busy spaces.
Escalators provide continuous passenger transport between floors in shopping centres, transport hubs, hotels, and public buildings. Under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER), escalators must undergo regular thorough examinations by a competent person to ensure safe, reliable operation and legal compliance.

• Frequency: At least every 6 months if carrying passengers.

• Inspector: Must be a competent person — independent, qualified, and experienced.

• Records: Maintain LOLER reports and promptly address any defects found.

• Legal duty: Owners and operators must ensure examinations are arranged as required.

Failure to comply can lead to legal penalties and increased safety risks.

Our thorough examination includes:

• Steps and handrails condition and alignment

• Safety switches and sensors

• Braking and speed control systems

• Emergency stop functions

• Drive chains and gears

• Structural integrity of supporting framework
