Lift Inspections

We offer independent lift inspections for clients who want to ensure their equipment is safe, well-maintained, and performing as it should. Whether it’s a stairlift in a private home or a commercial lift across a large site, we provide expert, unbiased assessments tailored to your needs.

These inspections are ideal for checking that maintenance is being carried out properly, verifying the condition of a lift after repairs, or simply gaining peace of mind with a second opinion.

What’s Included:

  • A thorough check of key safety systems and components.

  • A review of recent maintenance and repair work.

  • Functional testing of the lift in normal and emergency conditions.

  • Honest, expert feedback on the lift’s condition and upkeep.

Why Choose Forge Lifts?

We bring experience, independence, and attention to detail. Our inspections are not just box-ticking exercises — we look at the bigger picture and flag issues before they turn into costly faults. If something’s been missed, we’ll catch it. If something’s being done well, we’ll let you know.

  • Homeowners wanting peace of mind about their stairlift or domestic platform lift
