Quick Answer

Escalator Inspection Software runs a structured escalator inspection covering steps and comb plates, handrail speed and condition, brakes and safety devices, drive and step chain, and skirt, lighting, and signage, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point.

Available on Mobile

Run Escalator Inspection on the Inspectly360 Mobile App

Inspect on iOS and Android with no internet required. Capture photos, let AI flag defects, and generate audit-ready reports in the field.

What Is Escalator Inspection Software, and How Do Teams Use It Across Multi-Site Portfolios?

Escalator Inspection Software keeps one record per escalator and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each escalator finding is tracked to verified closure. Vertical transport and facilities teams see escalator completion and overdue actions across the facilities management portfolio. Every escalator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom. It covers Load Test, Brake Test, Deficiency Reporting, Statutory Examination, and more.

Before and After Inspectly360

What changes once escalator inspection software runs on one mobile-first platform.

Before Inspectly360

  • Checks skipped during peak hours; no escalation when window is missed.
  • Clearance measured reactively after entrapment incident.
  • E-stop assumed functional; not tested on documented schedule.
  • Handrail lag noticed by staff; not logged until passenger complaint.
  • Brand cannot see which malls missed weekly checks this week.

After Inspectly360

  • Scheduled checks with missed-window escalation to duty manager and re-check requirement.
  • Required clearance measurement on weekly template with photo and pass/fail threshold.
  • Required E-stop test per unit with timestamp and engineer sign-off each cycle.
  • Handrail speed check on PPM with flag when deviation exceeds EN 115 tolerance.
  • Live completion and open defects across all escalators by venue.

How Does a Escalator Inspection Cycle Run from Field Capture to Leadership Reporting?

Escalator Inspection Software runs as a short loop: configure the escalator template, capture in the field, route findings to verified closure, then report performance to vertical transport and facilities teams.

  1. 1

    Configure the Escalator Inspection Template

    Your escalator controls become a mobile template with required photos and readings on steps and comb plates, handrail speed and condition, brakes and safety devices, drive and step chain, and skirt, lighting, and signage, aligned to BS EN 115, so every site inspects to the same standard from day one.

  2. 2

    Capture the Escalator Check in the Field

    Inspectors complete the escalator inspection on iOS or Android, offline where signal is poor, recording safety device test note, comb and step photo, and brake check record against each point before a named sign-off can close the round.

  3. 3

    Route Escalator Findings to Verified Closure

    A failed item such as worn comb or damaged step becomes an owned task with a severity and a deadline, and stays open until photo proof of the fix is reviewed, so escalator defects do not resurface unnoticed.

  4. 4

    Report Escalator Performance

    Every escalator inspection feeds live dashboards and branded exports, so vertical transport and facilities teams see completion, overdue actions, and risk per site without assembling a report by hand.

What Does an Escalator Inspection Cover?

An escalator inspection covers steps and comb plates, handrail speed and condition, brakes and safety devices, drive and step chain, and skirt, lighting, and signage. Vertical transport and facilities teams capture a photo and a reading on each escalator point. They work offline where signal is poor, then sign the escalator round off. So every escalator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

What Gets Checked

  • Steps and comb plates
  • Handrail speed and condition
  • Brakes and safety devices
  • Drive and step chain
  • Skirt, lighting, and signage

Common Defects It Surfaces

  • Worn comb or damaged step
  • Handrail speed mismatch
  • Brake or safety device fault
  • Step chain wear
  • Excessive skirt gap

Evidence Captured

  • Safety device test note
  • Comb and step photo
  • Brake check record

Templates align to BS EN 115.

Frequently Asked Questions About Escalator Inspection Software

What does Escalator Inspection Software check on an escalator inspection?

Escalator Inspection Software runs a structured escalator inspection covering steps and comb plates, handrail speed and condition, brakes and safety devices, drive and step chain, and skirt, lighting, and signage. Each escalator point is captured on mobile with a photo and a reading. A named inspector then signs the escalator round off before it can close. The same escalator template runs on every site, giving vertical transport and facilities teams one standard. Every escalator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.

How often should an escalator inspection be done?

Escalator inspection frequency depends on duty, risk, and your escalator standard. Some escalator checks are daily or pre-use. Others run weekly, monthly, or at a statutory interval. Escalator Inspection Software sets the escalator cadence per site and reminds vertical transport and facilities teams before a round is due. It flags overdue escalator checks automatically. Each escalator round is timestamped and signed, so the schedule is provably kept. Escalator Inspection Software is the mobile tool FM Engineering Managers use to run escalator inspections across every facilities management site from one app.

Which escalator defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?

The inspection targets the escalator failures that matter most: worn comb or damaged step, handrail speed mismatch, brake or safety device fault, and step chain wear. Left unchecked, a escalator fault such as worn comb or damaged step causes real harm. It can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed escalator audit. So every escalator finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the escalator repair is reviewed. Repeat escalator failures are flagged, so vertical transport and facilities teams fix the cause.

Which standards does Escalator Inspection Software support for escalator work?

Escalator Inspection Software keeps escalator checks aligned to BS EN 115. The photos and readings each escalator standard expects are required fields. So an incomplete escalator check cannot close. A escalator gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, vertical transport and facilities teams export a branded escalator pack built from safety device test note, comb and step photo, and brake check record. So escalator evidence stays defensible at any time. Escalator Inspection Software is the mobile tool FM Engineering Managers use to run escalator inspections across every facilities management site from one app.

Can teams run escalator checks offline and across multiple sites?

Yes. Inspectors complete escalator checks on iOS or Android with no signal. They capture safety device test note, comb and step photo, and brake check record at the escalator in the field. Each escalator record syncs when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact. The same escalator template runs on every site. So vertical transport and facilities teams get a live view of escalator work that is complete, overdue, or failing per location. Escalator Inspection Software is the mobile tool FM Engineering Managers use to run escalator inspections across every facilities management site from one app.

What evidence proves an escalator inspection was completed?

Every escalator inspection carries safety device test note, comb and step photo, and brake check record, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. The escalator evidence is captured on the round, not typed up later. So vertical transport and facilities teams show exactly what was checked on the escalator, when, and by whom. When an assessor asks, that escalator record exports in seconds. It comes out as a branded PDF or a searchable escalator history. Escalator Inspection Software is the mobile tool FM Engineering Managers use to run escalator inspections across every facilities management site from one app.
