Professional Forklift Inspections
What are forklift inspections?
Regulations refer to this aspect as ‘Thorough Examinations’ in which forklift inspections are mandatory for any business owning and operating forklifts. These annual inspections ensure the safety and proper functioning of each forklift to maintain safe operation and functionally.
How often are forklift inspections required?
As per LOLER 1998 and PUWER 1998 regulations, forklifts require a ‘thorough examination’ annually – possibly every six months depending on the equipment type. We can provide guidance on inspection frequency based on your specific needs, but as standard each forklift will require an inspection every year to ensure full legal compliance.
Why should I choose AV Statutory Inspections?
Here at AV statutory Inspections, we are dedicated to ensuring compliance with LOLER and PUWER regulations, employing experienced inspectors who meet the competency requirements outlined in the legal regulations. This ensures you can rest assured that your forklifts are always working correctly in accordance with UK regulations.
What is included in a forklift examination?
Our thorough examinations cover a wide range of tests and inspections (similar to a car MOT). These include checks on operational equipment, safety devices, fluid levels, structural integrity, tire conditions, and more. Feel free to contact us for a detailed list of inspection criteria if you’re interested and we will be happy to explain everything in more detail.
