Escalator Servicing FAQs
How often should an escalator be serviced?
Frequency depends on equipment, duty, hours, environment, manufacturer guidance and risk.
Can servicing happen outside trading hours?
Yes, where access, security, safe isolation and site arrangements allow.
Do escalators also require independent examination?
Applicable examination arrangements depend on use and legal duties; maintenance does not replace any required independent assessment.
What should staff do if an escalator behaves unusually?
Use the approved stop procedure where necessary, prevent access and seek specialist support.
Can you coordinate servicing across multiple sites?
Yes. Planned schedules and consistent defect reporting can be managed across portfolios.
