Lift Cert Ltd operates its certification and approvals processes such that all decisions made for the award, continuing registration and, where necessary, suspension or withdrawal of certification are based upon independent, impartial and competent audits and reviews. Please refer to our Quality Policy.

The Scheme Rules which govern these activities and detail both the client’s and Lift Cert Ltd’s responsibilities are available on request or via our Services page.

Lifts

Established in 2002, Lift Cert Ltd is a company approved as an Approved Body under the requirements of the Lifts Regulations 2016 by BEIS – the Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy.

In order to ensure that we are fully up to date with developments within the National regulations and relevant standards, we attend the UK association of Approved Bodies – Lifts and the British Standard Committee for Lifts and Escalators (MHE/4). Attendance at these committees ensures that the information we provide to our clients is accurate and up to date.

The technical team at Lift Cert Ltd have a combined experience including apprenticeships totalling almost 100 years in the lift industry. We are therefore conversant with the challenges experienced by lift installers and their customers which means that we can provide a practical response to resolve any issues whilst maintaining compliance with the Lifts Regulations 2016.
