BS EN81-20:2014 created a need to update the checklist

The majority of lifts in the UK will fall under one of the following categories;

A. Lifts installed prior to the Lift Regulations (BS 2655 & BS 5655)

B. Lifts installed pre Lift Regulations with components already upgraded in accordance with EN 81-80:2003

C. Lifts installed to the Lift Regulations (BS EN 81-1 & BS EN 81-2, BS EN 81-21)



Depending when the equipment was installed some items may have different priority levels

A. Installed prior to the Lift Regulations (BS 2655 & BS 5655)

B. Components already upgraded in accordance with EN 81 80:2003

C. Lifts installed to the Lift Regulations (BS EN 81-1 & BS EN 81-2, BS EN 81-21)

Priority Level 1

Priority Level 2



Priority levels for lift installed to EN 81-1/2 and EN 81-80:2003

There are some items where the safety level has slightly increased with EN81-20:2014

- inspection control in the pit,

- refuge spaces,

- door strength,

- unintended car movement protection, etc.


In cases of significant differences in safety level between EN 81‐20 & EN 81‐1/2 or EN 81‐80:2003 different priority levels are specified
