How it works

Local engineer, digital reports

Every examination is carried out by a competent person and reported digitally through the Fox Engineering customer portal: your certificates are always audit-ready, with reminders before your next examination is due.

Independent by design: we examine equipment. We don’t sell, hire or repair it. Our only interest is whether your equipment is safe and compliant.

Local knowledge

Inspection work in Coventry and Warwickshire

Coventry’s motor heritage is still its economy: dealerships, MOT stations, independent garages and vehicle preparation sites across the city run two-post and four-post lifts all day, and HSE guidance for motor vehicle repair recommends thoroughly examining vehicle lifts at least every 6 months because technicians work beneath the raised load. A large part of our Coventry work is exactly that: garage lift examinations, planned so MOT bays lose as little time as possible.

Around the garages sit the manufacturers and engineering firms of the Coventry and Warwickshire belt, with overhead cranes, forklifts, press machinery and compressed air systems carrying LOLER, PUWER and PSSR duties. Enderby to Coventry is a short run down the M69, making it one of the closest patches to our base and easy to reach at short notice.

Common questions in Coventry

Coventry inspection FAQs

How often should our garage vehicle lifts be examined?

HSE guidance for the motor vehicle repair industry recommends a thorough examination at least every 6 months, because technicians work beneath the raised load. We keep MOT bays and workshops on that cycle with reminders before each examination is due.

Can you fit examinations around MOT bay bookings?

Yes. For garages we plan examinations to keep bays out of action for as little time as possible, and where you have several lifts we sequence them so the workshop keeps working.

Do you cover the wider West Midlands?

Yes. Coventry is one of the closest areas to our Leicester base via the M69, and we regularly work across Warwickshire and into the West Midlands, with national coverage when required.
