Lifts (LOLER) Compliance and Safety for Social Housing Providers
At Morgan Lambert, we understand that lift safety is a top priority in social housing. Our dedicated services ensure that your lifts are fully compliant with the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER) and are safe for all residents.
Client Based Lift Safety Audits
Our in-depth audits provide a thorough evaluation of your existing processes and procedures. In addition to providing LOLER safety regulatory advice, we meticulously review your lift operations to identify potential hazards and ensure they meet all LOLER requirements, keeping your residents safe and your organisation compliant.
Policy and Procedure Reviews
We work with you to develop and refine lift safety policies and procedures that align with the latest regulations and best practices. Our expertise helps create a safe environment for residents while minimising the risk of accidents and legal liabilities.
Service Provider Documentation Review
We conduct detailed desktop reviews of documentation provided by your lift service partners. This service ensures that maintenance records, inspections, and reports are accurate, comprehensive, and compliant, providing transparency and peace of mind.
On-Site Compliance Inspections
Our on-site inspections verify that all lift-related works have been completed to the highest standards. We ensure that maintenance and repairs are conducted in accordance with LOLER, guaranteeing the safety and reliability of your lifts.
We perform a detailed survey of your existing lift equipment and provide a full report outlining the current condition and expected lifespan for planning purposes. The report will detail necessary works, reasons for undertaking them, along with timescales and budget costs.
We can compile a detailed, robust specification to cover the scope required to modernise a lift to meet compliance and safety standards within your available budget.
We handle the tendering process, selecting competent, reliable contractors with a sound track record. We compare returns for completeness and compliance, ensuring like-for-like attributes are identified and variations are fully costed for accurate appraisal.
We offer full project management services, covering everything from pre-start meetings to final inspections and acceptance. This includes regular site progress visits, program reviews, and financial applications. Our goal is to deliver the project on time, on budget, and fully compliant with the specification.
We can conduct a detailed survey of your existing “lifts intended for fire service use” to assess their capacity and compliance. We ensure correct identification and categorisation under the Building Safety Act and meet Emergency Services requirements.
