Posted By Jo Scott Smith One of our advice centres has a stair lift for use by clients as our offices are on the first floor. The stair lift is manufactured and serviced by a well known company that specialises in stairlifts. My understanding is that as a passenger carrying lift the stair lift needs to be inspected and examined on a 6 monthly basis to comply with the requirements of Reg 9 of LOLER. However the stairlift company seem unfamiliar with this requirement and are making a big deal about undertaking the work. Although a large part of the company's business will be providing stairlifts to people in their own home, they also provide them to public buildings and nursing homes so I cannot understand why none of their other customers have requested this from them. can anyone shed any light on whats going on or suggest a company that would be able to carry out these inspections for us? Thanks JO
