The passenger-lift stock in Hammersmith and Fulham

Hammersmith town centre has office buildings around the Broadway with banks of passenger lifts. White City has new university, media and residential buildings. Fulham and Sands End have riverside apartment developments and converted period houses, and Shepherd's Bush and the north of the borough have council estates with medium and high-rise blocks. There are also hospital sites with bed and passenger lifts.

What the six-monthly examination covers

Six months for every one of them. In offices around Hammersmith Broadway the visit is usually timed early or late so a bank of lifts never loses more than one car. In riverside developments with several cores, we keep one record of every lift so none of them drifts out of date while the others are examined on time.

Areas covered around Hammersmith and Fulham

Passenger lifts carry people, so the statutory interval is six months — not twelve.

Common Questions

Passenger lift inspections in Hammersmith and Fulham — common questions

Our development has lifts in several cores. Do they all have the same due date?

Not necessarily. Each lift's interval runs from its own last examination, so lifts installed or examined at different times can fall due in different months. We keep one record of all of them and remind you before each is due, or line them up onto the same visit if that suits you better.

Do you need the lift company on site for the examination?

Not usually for a standard passenger lift. Some tests are easier with the maintainer there, and some buildings require it. Either way the examination is independent, and we sell no repairs, so nothing on the report is a sales pitch.

Further reading

How Often Does a Passenger Lift Need Inspecting?
Every six months. The confusion is almost never about the number — it is about whether the maintenance visits already cover it. They do not. A service contract and a thorough examination are different things done by different people for different reasons, and having one does not satisfy the duty for the other.
Will the Examiner Leave My Lift Out of Service?
It is the question duty-holders ask least often and worry about most, and it is the real reason many let their maintenance contractor examine its own work. A thorough examination takes the lift out of normal service deliberately — that is what testing the safety gear means. Getting it back is specific to the installation in front of you rather than to the name on the doors.
Can My Lift Company Carry Out the LOLER Inspection?
It is one of the most common questions duty-holders ask, and the honest answer is not a flat no. LOLER does not name a prohibited person. What it requires is a competent person, and HSE expects that person to be sufficiently independent and impartial to make objective decisions — which is where a maintenance provider examining its own work runs into difficulty. This is about the structure of the arrangement, not about anyone's honesty.
