Do goods/persons Lifts used in construction of multi-storeyed buildings have to have the same stringent interlocking systems for both the cabin door and the doors at the various landing floors - or does it suffice that an operator in the cabin controls the use of the lift??
Grateful urgent response. Anticipated thanks

All lifts come under the same LOLER Regs and therefore must comply in the same way.

Hi Gawtum.

Not sure what legal requirements apply in Mauritius.

In the UK, require interlocks on both cage door(s) and at each landing gate.

But these interlocks do not need to be to as high standards as would be required in a permanent lift within a structure, if this was the essence of your question.

Gawtum,

In answer to you question yes, the lift must have a landing gate interlock as well as a car gate interlock.

I have e-mailed you directly

Kind Regards
