What is lift, escalator and moving walks inspection

Ensuring the reliability, availability and efficiency of lifts, escalators and moving walks is critical for businesses in today’s environment. Lift, escalator and moving walks inspection is a rigorous process to mitigate potential and actual risks and strengthen safety and performance for your installations.

Inspection evaluates mechanical, electrical, and safety components for compliance in accordance with safety standards and regulations. At TÜV SÜD, we deliver comprehensive services as an one-stop-shop, including lift inspection, certification and advanced monitoring.

Why lift, escalator and moving walks inspection is important

Periodical lift, escalator and moving walks inspections are essential to assure reliability, efficiency and compliance to regulations and technical standards. They help prevent accidents and property damage while giving users confidence in the lifts, escalators or moving walks they rely on daily.

In addition to safeguarding users, periodic independent inspections help reduce long-term maintenance costs. They identify wear and tear, minimise unexpected breakdowns and expensive repairs by detecting issues early. Independent predictive reports provide transparency in lift, escalator and moving walks performance, supporting better maintenance decisions and reducing liability risks.

Adherence to standards such as ISO 25745 and EN 81/ISO 8100 is also crucial for avoiding legal complications and ensuring user safety.

For owners and operators, lift, escalator and moving walk independent inspections are key to meeting legal obligations and protecting their reputation. Periodical inspections uphold safety standards, improve availability, and ensure smooth daily operations - critical for maintaining user satisfaction and trust.
