LIFTS Regulations

The Lifts Regulations and the Inspection of Lifts Regulations are legal requirements that 

govern the safety, maintenance, and inspection of passenger lifts. The Lifts Regulations 

set out the standards for design, installation, and safety of new lifts (installed after July

maintenance to ensure that lifts remain safe for use. Together, these regulations ensure 

that lifts in workplaces, condominiums, and domestic residences are properly 

maintained and compliant with safety standards. Read More
