Safety Inspections in Dudley Frequently Asked Questions
How often do safety inspections need to be carried out?
It depends on the type of equipment. Lifting accessories require inspection every 6 months. Other lifting equipment typically requires annual thorough examination.

We manage your inspection schedule so you never miss a deadline.
