In the United Kingdom, the Lifting Operations & Lifting Equipment Regulations (LOLER) unequivocally classify all shackles and eye bolts used for lifting purposes as lifting accessories. Consequently, they necessitate a thorough examination by a competent person at least every six months. Beyond legislative requirements, the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA) strongly advocates for this rigorous inspection policy to be adopted by all parties responsible for the safe condition of lifting equipment, including gin wheels. Regular maintenance and inspection of your gin wheel are paramount for ensuring ongoing safety and compliance on your construction site.

If you have any uncertainties regarding your LOLER obligations or require a thorough examination for your gin wheel or other lifting equipment, please do not hesitate to contact Ultimate Lifting Solutions. Our team of highly trained engineers is available to conduct comprehensive inspection and servicing, either directly on your site or at our in-house facility, ensuring your gin wheel remains safe and compliant.
