loler testing

Product Details

LOLER Testing ensures the safety and reliability of lifting equipment in care environments. Our service focuses on compliance with the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER), which are essential for maintaining the highest standards of care and safety. These regulations require that all hoists used in care settings are thoroughly examined by a competent person at regular intervals, ensuring they are safe for use and fit for purpose.

In a care environment, hoists play a crucial role in assisting elderly or disabled individuals with their mobility needs. LOLER regulations mandate that these hoists undergo a detailed inspection every six months. This inspection checks for any signs of wear and tear, ensuring that the equipment is in good working order and that all safety mechanisms are functioning correctly. By adhering to these regulations, you can offer peace of mind the end user of the hoist, knowing that the equipment is safe and reliable.

Our professional and friendly LOLER partner is committed to providing a service that is both thorough and considerate of the needs of care environments. We understand the importance of maintaining a safe and comfortable setting for those who rely on hoists for their daily activities. By choosing our LOLER Testing, you can be confident that your equipment meets all necessary safety standards, allowing you to focus on providing the best possible care.

If you have more than one hoist requiring a LOLER then as long as we can perform the LOLER on all the hoists in the same visit, that will work out cheaper for you. Please ask if you have more than 4 items requiring LOLER testing at the same time.
