Testing and Repair of Hoists

Preventative maintenance is one step beyond general upkeep.  General upkeep can be performed by a designated person, but preventative maintenance should be done by a qualified crane technician or inspector.

We offer compliant inspections by a qualified service technician. Inspections are available monthly, quarterly, bi-annually, and annually for hoists, overhead cranes, chain slings, round slings, web slings, wire rope slings, and below the hook lifting devices.

A hoist is a mechanical lifting device that can lift someone from a seated position and transfer them to another location such as a bed, seat or bathtub. Some hoists can move horizontally between areas within a room or between rooms.

 A wheeled hoist is free-standing equipment that supports the person being moved in a sling or harness that is suspended from a cantilevered arm. The sling is placed around the person while he or she is seated or lying down. The person is then hoisted up, the hoist is wheeled to the new location and the person is lowered. Ceiling lifts work by using tracks which are installed in the user’s household and are usually electrically powered. The advice of a structural engineer is required if you wish to have a ceiling lift installed.  You must provide a clear path of travel along the route of the track, particularly at door frames for systems that connect two or more rooms. As a key part of care and mobility it is important to keep this in full working order, we can repair any issues you are having or perform a full service to keep it in the highest standard.
