TEAM SAFETY CONSULTANTS LLC
What We Inspect
Lifting Equipment Types
We provide comprehensive inspection and certification services across a wide range of equipment and systems.

Elevator
Passenger and goods elevators require mandatory annual inspection and certification under UAE municipality regulations. TSC's qualified inspectors conduct comprehensive examinations covering the hoisting machinery, control systems, safety gear, guide rails, buffers, door interlocks, overload protection, and emergency communication systems — ensuring safe and reliable operation for all occupants and full legal compliance.

Escalator
Escalators and moving walkways are subject to regular inspection to prevent mechanical failures and ensure public safety. TSC examines step chains, drive machinery, handrail systems, safety switches, comb plates, emergency stop devices, and structural integrity in accordance with UAE municipality requirements and EN 115 standards, issuing certificates upon successful completion.

Forklift
TSC provides thorough third-party inspection of counterbalance forklifts, reach trucks, pallet stackers, and all powered industrial trucks. Our inspections cover the mast assembly, forks, hydraulic systems, braking, steering, load capacity markings, safety devices, and operator controls — ensuring full compliance with UAE safety regulations and annual certification requirements for factories, warehouses, and logistics sites.

Mobile Elevating Work Platform (MEWP)
Scissor lifts, boom lifts, cherry pickers, and all mobile elevating work platforms must be inspected and certified annually under UAE law. TSC examines the platform structure, extending mechanisms, hydraulic systems, emergency lowering devices, tilt sensors, outriggers, and all safety interlocks — confirming each unit is safe for personnel working at height on construction and industrial sites.

Mobile/ Crawler Crane
Mobile and crawler cranes are among the most safety-critical assets on any construction site. TSC's inspectors carry out comprehensive examinations of the superstructure, boom and jib assemblies, slewing mechanisms, outriggers, load moment indicators, anti-two block devices, wire ropes, and all safety systems — certifying each crane in accordance with BS 7121 and UAE regulatory requirements.

Overhead Crane
Overhead travelling cranes, gantry cranes, jib cranes, and monorail hoists require periodic inspection to maintain safe and efficient operations. TSC examines the bridge structure, end carriages, hoist units, wire ropes, hooks, electrical systems, limit switches, rail alignment, and all braking mechanisms — providing certified inspection reports and compliance documentation to UAE and international standards.

Tower Crane
Tower cranes are subject to strict inspection requirements due to their critical role in construction and the significant risks associated with failure. TSC's engineers conduct detailed examinations of the mast sections, slewing rings, jib and counter-jib assemblies, hoist and luffing mechanisms, load moment limiters, anti-collision systems, anemometers, and all structural bolted connections to ensure safe operation throughout the project.

Vehicle Lift
Inspection and certification of two-post, four-post, scissor, and column vehicle lifts used in garages and automotive workshops. TSC verifies the structural integrity of arms and platforms, hydraulic and mechanical locking devices, overload protection, safety release mechanisms, and electrical systems — ensuring vehicle lifts are safe for daily use and compliant with UAE safety standards.

Window Cradle
Window cleaning cradles, suspended access platforms, and building maintenance units (BMUs) require thorough inspection to protect workers operating at height on building facades. TSC examines the suspension system, primary and secondary wire ropes, motorised hoisting units, overload protection, tilt limiters, and emergency descent systems — confirming full compliance with UAE working-at-height regulations.

Construction Site Hoist
Personnel and material hoists on construction sites must be inspected and certified before use and at regular intervals throughout the project. TSC examines the mast structure, cage, landing gate interlocks, overrun devices, braking systems, drive machinery, and electrical controls — ensuring safe vertical transportation of workers and materials in accordance with UAE site safety regulations.

Chain Block
Manual chain blocks and lever hoists are widely used for maintenance and rigging tasks across all industries. TSC's inspectors examine the load chain for wear, stretch, and deformation, check hooks for cracks and throat opening, test the brake and pawl mechanism, and verify the housing condition — certifying equipment against manufacturer requirements and BS EN 13157 standards.

Electric Chain Hoist
Electric chain hoists are used extensively in manufacturing, warehousing, and industrial maintenance environments. TSC's thorough examination covers the load chain condition, hooks, brake system, limit switches, electrical controls, motor housing, and suspension components — with load testing carried out to verify safe operation at rated capacity, in accordance with UAE regulations and LEEA standards.

Electric Winch
Electric winches used for pulling, lifting, and positioning loads must be regularly inspected to confirm they are safe and fit for purpose. TSC examines the wire rope or synthetic rope condition, drum, gearbox, motor, braking system, limit switches, and structural mounting — verifying that the winch can safely perform its rated function in full compliance with UAE safety requirements.

Electric Wire Rope Hoist
Electric wire rope hoists provide high-capacity lifting in heavy industrial environments. TSC's inspection covers wire rope condition including broken wires, corrosion, and kinking, the drum and sheaves, hook block assembly, brake and motor systems, limit switches, and overload protection devices — ensuring safe operation at the rated safe working load as required by UAE and international standards.

Hiab Crane - Truck Mounted Crane - Lorry Loader
Truck-mounted cranes and lorry loaders require inspection and certification to ensure safe loading, unloading, and lifting operations. TSC examines the slewing mechanism, boom sections and extensions, hydraulic systems, outriggers, load charts, overload protection, remote control systems, and chassis mounting — certifying equipment in accordance with BS EN 12999 and UAE regulatory requirements.
Thorough Examination
What We Inspect On Every Piece of Equipment
Our inspections go beyond visual checks. We follow manufacturer guidelines and international standards to ensure total safety.
Structural Integrity
Examination of main structure, boom, jib, mast, and load-bearing components for cracks, deformation, or corrosion.
Safety Devices & Limiters

UAE Regulations
Legal Requirements
Lifting equipment inspection is not optional in the UAE. Here's what you need to know.
Mandatory Annual Inspection
All lifting equipment used in factories, construction sites, hotels, and workplaces must be tested and certified by a third-party accredited body once every 12 months as per UAE federal law.
EIAC/ENAS Accreditation
Inspections must be performed by a body accredited by the Emirates International Accreditation Centre (EIAC) or the Emirates National Accreditation System (ENAS) to be legally valid.
Detailed Records Required
Employers must maintain detailed records of all inspections, certifications, and maintenance activities. These records must be available for review by UAE authorities at any time.
