Load Testing, Inspection and Certification

Uncompromising safety and regulatory compliance drive modern industrial and mining operations. Shutterlock provides accredited load testing, inspection and certification solutions engineered to verify asset integrity, minimise costly downtime, and protect personnel on-site. From high-capacity lifting equipment to critical rigging hardware, we deliver the necessary certification required to keep your operation moving safely and legally.

Load Testing & Statutory Certification

In accordance with SANS 500 we load test every hoist, new or repaired, to a dynamic load in accordance with the unit’s Working Load Limit. Every successful test is backed by formal, audit-ready compliance certification confirming full adherence to statutory occupational health and safety standards.

Whether extending asset lifespans through proactive maintenance or satisfying mandatory regulatory audits, Shutterlock gives you definitive certainty in the strength of your equipment.
