Mechanical Lift Maintenance & Repair Services

Mechanical lifts are essential for safely moving heavy vehicles, materials, and equipment in workshops, factories, and multi-level facilities. At Dealanddone, we provide expert maintenance, repair, and safety inspection services for all types of mechanically driven lifting equipment, including screw-driven, cable-operated, and chain-driven lifts. Our certified technicians ensure that your lifting columns, load-bearing nuts, safety catches, and drive systems are in peak condition, providing reliable performance and uncompromising safety for your daily operations.

Service Features

  • Thorough inspection of drive screws and load nuts
  • Chain, cable, and pulley lubrication and adjustment
  • Safety mechanism testing and precise calibration
  • Preventative maintenance and rapid breakdown repair

Minimizing Wear and Maximizing Safety

Unlike hydraulic systems, mechanical lifts rely heavily on the constant physical engagement of moving metal parts, such as heavy-duty chains, gears, or threaded steel columns. Without proper lubrication, alignment, and regular wear measurement, these components can degrade rapidly, leading to jerky movements, excess noise, or catastrophic failure. Our proactive servicing approach focuses on these critical wear points, replacing stretched chains, and meticulously monitoring load nut tolerances to guarantee your lifts operate smoothly, quietly, and safely year after year.

The load nut and safety nut assembly are the most critical safety components. We regularly measure the clearance between these nuts to monitor thread wear. If the load nut wears down beyond the manufacturer's safe tolerance limit, the lift becomes unsafe to operate and requires immediate parts replacement.

Lifting chains, cables, and their associated pulleys should be visually inspected weekly by your operators for fraying, stretching, or a lack of lubrication. A comprehensive professional inspection and tension adjustment by our team is highly recommended at least once every six months.

A grinding, groaning, or squealing noise often indicates a severe lack of lubrication, a failing bearing, or dangerous metal-on-metal wear within the drive mechanism. You should stop using the lift immediately, lower it safely if possible, and contact us for an emergency diagnostic repair.
