The passenger-lift stock in Haringey

Tottenham Hale has been rebuilt with high-rise residential blocks and build-to-rent towers. Wood Green has mixed-use buildings over its shopping streets. Tottenham, Northumberland Park and Noel Park have large council estates. Muswell Hill, Crouch End and Highgate have mansion blocks and converted houses with small, older lifts.

What the six-monthly examination covers

All six-monthly. In older mansion blocks the lift has often been modernised a piece at a time, so the examination establishes what has changed since the last report. In new towers there are more lifts per building and the job is keeping every one of them on the record.

Areas covered around Haringey

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

Common Questions

Passenger lift inspections in Haringey — common questions

Our mansion block lift had a new controller fitted. Does it need examining before use?

A substantial alteration to a lift needs a thorough examination before it goes back into use. A new controller usually counts, because it changes how the lift's safety circuits behave. If it was not examined after the work, book one now.

Do you work with residents' management companies?

Yes. Many Haringey blocks are run by residents' management companies or right-to-manage companies. We send the report the same day, with photographs, to the director or agent you nominate, and remind you before the next one.

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.
