We provide a worldwide service partner network. Authorization of a service station is subject to a contract between Hatecke / Global Davit and the service station. Please note that service stations which are not listed on our website are not authorized/trained by Hatecke/ Global Davit.
If you would like to submit an enquiry about the service and maintenance of HATECKE / GLOBAL DAVIT products, you can select the most suitable service partner and contact them directly via our website.

Currently, we do not intend to expand our network. Therefore, we offer training courses only to existing service partners.
However service providers can send their application to admin[at]hatecke.de and we will consider them as soon as we need a partner in an additional region.
Our aim is to offer complete service packages to our customers and to maintain a high level of quality and safety. Therefore, potential service providers shall be trained and authorized by several manufacturers of lifesaving equipment.
Especially the following criteria need to be fulfilled by our partners:
- Experiences in servicing and repair of lifeboat and davits
- Experiences in GRP repair works
- Documented quality management system complying with the latest ISO 9000 series

Hooks are part of the annual and 5-years inspections (see SOLAS changes enforced July 1, 2008). Before ordering a service please take into account that Hatecke hooks need to be replaced 5 years after production.


The service on your equipment is critical to the safety of you and your crew. Learn how we work.

Hatecke supplies merchant ships and cruise vessels with high-quality lifeboats, rescue boats, launching appliances and release gears.
