LOLER lift examinations in Kent.
Arrange the right examination and understand the follow-up. Forge Lifts helps Kent lift owners connect with independent third-party examination providers.
24/7 emergency call-outs · One-off repairs welcome
Your building. Your equipment.
Independent examination. Clear next steps.
Forge can help coordinate an examination through an independent provider, or introduce you so you can arrange it directly. The independent provider carries out the examination and issues its report.
If an existing report calls for repairs or further tests, send the complete report when you contact us. We can discuss the engineering work it identifies while keeping the examiner’s role and responsibilities clear.
What we can help with.
Understanding the follow-up
Share the report rather than a short summary of one item. It helps the engineering team identify the relevant equipment, requested action and recorded timescale.
Repair and testing support
Forge can assess repairs or supplementary tests requested in the report. Any further examination arrangements remain a separate discussion with the examination provider.
From enquiry to next steps.
Our Dartford team supports properties across Kent and Medway. Start with the lift details and the work you need.
Gather the records
Have the previous examination report, lift identification and maintenance details available.
Confirm who is doing what
Agree the examination arrangements with the independent provider and the site contact responsible for access.
Coordinate any follow-up
Keep the examination report and engineering records together so required work and subsequent arrangements can be tracked.
Useful to know
Your questions,
answered.
Does Forge carry out the independent examination itself?
For this service, Forge helps arrange a third-party provider or makes an introduction. The independent provider undertakes the examination and prepares its report.
Does a service visit replace the examination?
No. Planned servicing and thorough examination have different purposes. Arrange each separately for the equipment and circumstances.
Can you help with a report we already have?
Yes. Email the complete report with your site postcode and contact details. For urgent issues, call the team directly.
