The passenger-lift stock in Hounslow

Chiswick has a large office campus and offices along the Great West Road, with banks of passenger lifts. Brentford has new riverside residential towers. Hounslow town centre and Isleworth have mixed-use blocks and estates. Feltham, Bedfont and Cranford, close to the airport, have hotels, warehouses and logistics sites with goods lifts and passenger lifts side by side.

What the six-monthly examination covers

Passenger lifts are six-monthly and goods-only lifts twelve. Airport hotels run lifts around the clock, so the visit goes car by car. On logistics sites the passenger lift into the office is often the one item nobody thinks about, because the attention is all on the fleet. We put it on the same record.

Areas covered around Hounslow

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

Common Questions

Passenger lift inspections in Hounslow — common questions

Our warehouse has one passenger lift to the offices. Does it need six-monthly inspection?

Yes. Any lift that carries people is six-monthly, even if it is the only one on a site full of goods equipment. It is easy to miss when the attention is on the forklifts, so we put it on the same record and remind you before it is due.

Can you inspect hotel lifts without closing them all?

Yes. We examine one car at a time and agree the timing with the duty manager, so guests always have a working lift.

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.
