Hoist Service, Maintenance and Inspection

High quality hoist maintenance, service, inspection, load testing & repair. Our Bedfordshire unit has great facilities bespoke for maintaining lifting equipment.
We focus on servicing and load testing most types of electrical chain hoists, including manual chain blocks. We can service and repair your hoists exactly the way they should be, and work to the tight deadlines offered by the entertainments industry

We currently work with leading Staging, lighting and Audio companies, and maintain their hoisting systems in the UK and Europe. We provide the reassurance that their hoist stock will lift the required load safely and consistently.

The Events industry prides itself on putting on great shows, and we try and help things go up and down smoothly.

Inspection, Service and Test

Our inspection routine includes a thorough inspection of the external and internal features of the hoist, followed by a detailed maintenance routine that locates any failing elements.

All inspection and service points are recorded by the Service Engineer, the hoist is then load tested to +25% of its SWL in accordance with Loler and HSE guidelines.

If the equipment is observed to be safe whilst moving and braking under load, a report is submitted and a certificate formulated around the information provided.
