Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about ewp & crane inspections.

How often do EWPs and cranes need to be inspected?

Routine inspections are typically carried out at each service interval, with a documented annual inspection on top. Heavily used or high-risk plant may need more frequent checks. We can help you build a schedule that meets AS 2550 and your site's requirements.

Which standards do you inspect against?

Elevated work platforms are assessed against the AS 2550 series and cranes against AS 1418. Every inspection is documented so your records stand up to audit.

Do you inspect equipment you didn't supply?

Yes. Our inspections are independent and cover all makes and models — whether you own, hire, or are about to purchase the equipment.

Can you carry out pre-purchase inspections?

We do. A pre-purchase inspection identifies structural, hydraulic and safety issues before you buy, so there are no surprises after the sale.
