Ask ten owners how often their lift is serviced and you will get ten different answers. Lift service in Bangalore is not optional: it is what keeps a lift safe, quiet and reliable. This guide explains how often a lift should be serviced, what a proper service visit includes and what you should see on paper after each visit.
How often should a lift be serviced
Most lifts are serviced monthly under an AMC, although the right frequency depends on the lift type, age, number of floors and how heavily it is used. A busy apartment or commercial lift may need more attention than a lightly used home lift. The key point is that the frequency must be written in your contract, not left to goodwill. See the lift AMC guide.
What a lift service visit includes
- Checking doors, sensors and interlocks.
- Lubrication and adjustment of moving parts.
- Testing safety devices, alarm, intercom and emergency light.
- Checking levelling and ride quality.
- Inspecting ropes, guide shoes and brakes.
- Cleaning the pit and machine room as agreed.
- Recording findings in a service report.
