That store employee was actually quite nice, I wonder why... And now that I'm re-watching this video 13 years since it has been uploaded I realize that there weren't any security cameras in the service corridor, loading dock and freight elevator lobby. How could it have been like this ? Aren't there cameras everywhere nowadays ?
If you decide to revisit this elevator you will notice that the alarm bell was recently removed which I think that at some point that they determined that it was unnecessary to have a bell that loud hooked up to a freight elevator and possibly they received multiple complaints about it going off every time that the elevator is used and it also sounds like the fire alarm going off. Although I don't work at the king of prussia mall but that's what my opinion is on them removing the alarm bell.
@@andreawinkler9651 I've ridden it. There's a video of it on my channel. Plus, Owenhinton and many others uploaded a video of it with the bell removed.
That's pretty much what I get recording an elevator by a Simon (or store) employee, or no reaction. Glad it went well, except for the annoyance factor.
This be an OTIS. I have proof that Short Hills is, also A&S and opened the same year with a similar freight. The only reason that has OTIS doors and this has Courion is that OTIS doors stopped being made that year, sometime between Short Hills and here. you can put OTIS int he title BTW
This was the sister to the former Abraham & Strauss stores at Short Hills and Willow Grove. Short Hills originally had an Otis (passenger), until it was modded by Schindler. However, the Willow Grove location had a Westinghouse, at least when it was Strawbridge's, because I remember that store when it was Strawbridge's (the Willow Grove location). Hence, this may have originally been a Westinghouse, unless the Westinghouse at the Willow Grove location was installed by Strawbridge's in 1988 when they moved in, which would have made it one of the last Westinghouses ever installed. We may never know for sure, unless we see Pennsylvania elevator records.
At least the employee was a nice one. I'm planning on heading out there Wednesday. May or may not do any filming as it is a busy mall. Don't think I'll go for the freight elevator though.
I was in a hotel in gran canaria and all the lifts were Schindlers and the door close button worked on all the lifts And these "freight elevators" don't seem to be very reliable...
@owenhinton yeah, I filmed it, and got stuck in it. It is in the Pavilion (former A&S/Strawbridge's), and is down the corridor between Borders and Eurocraft (former Golfdom) on 2, and between DSW Shoes and Nestology on 1. It is very hard/confusing to access on 3... Like I warned you before, DO NOT take the elevator to the 2nd floor, as you have a 95% chance of getting stuck. I wouldn't start it their either as it could get stuck as it answers your call...
The video is uploading. They told me I shouldn't use it if I am not handling freight. ALL of the doors to the service corridors in that mall are always open...
Did you get permission to ride the freight elevator? If you dont get permission, you will get into trouble. So never ever ride the freight elevator without permission at all.
And I will be there at the moment I will be there at the moment I will be there in about 10 minutes or so if you want to come over to be in a few minutes late but I will be there in about 10 minutes or
you should try to do a kickout video of filming in the mall (after you got your vids of the elevators) and trying to see what the guards say when they spot you
I love how people can be so supportive with our hobbies, yet I find it strange how others automatically accuse terrorism.
Yeah you are lucky I would emmediateley get caught

The only elevator that said PLEASE ALLOW THE DOORS TO CLOSE. Too bad the voice is gone.
Not anymore. The voice and bell have since been removed.

@@andreawinkler9651 There are other videos.
Please allow the doors to close

i am looking forward to riding it. As I said in the TXT I just sent you, I will include the machine going up 1 floor as well...
Security manually opened the doors within 5 min of the elevator stopping...

@@edytapolasiak1315 It is 12 now. :D
Knowing it's a SIMON mall I thought it was gonna be BAD, but the lady was nice and thats the way everyone should be. Minding her own business!
Andrew, many people are considering 2 as a forbidden floor due to the leveling problem.
I’m guessing the alarm bell from floor 1 just rings when the door is about to close when it’s at floors 2-3 like you can hear it from floor 1 lol
it was soo annoying.
@@DieselDucy lol yeah

You planned to take some retake on this one with your TX10? :)

@DieselDucy Hey I love your videos! I have Asperger's Syndrome and I love your videos as they contain lifts (elevators
I wonder how many people thought someone was sounding the alarm
ALWAYS REMEMBER: " Ｐｌｅａｓｅ ａｌｌｏｗ ｔｈｅ ｄｏｏｒｓ ｔｏ ｃｌｏｓｅ！"
Oh. My. GOD
The alarm was removed and the phantom voice was disabled.
hey andrew its a schindler. we have a lot of schindlers in fayette county,PA and some otis
@xderytuju I meant where did it stop? For Me, it stopped about 2in below the Upper Level (2) of the Mall
I burst out of laughter after the lantern regestered as Up when Andrew pushed the down button
6:18
lol
The alarm bell on this elevator was removed sometime in 2013 and the phantom voice was removed sometime last year.
2012 I believe and its not a alarm bell its a school bell
The bell that sounded when the freight elevator door closes by the way it sounds like the simplex 2901-9333 bell on the continuos tone
I bet the door open button doesn't work either
@jimster586 yeah, and that makes it a "Sweet/Queen Hood" elevator...
I can confirm this was an Esco.
At least the employee was a nice one. I'm planning on heading out there Wednesday. May or may not do any filming as it is a busy mall. Don't think I'll go for the freight elevator though.
each door also has its own floor indicator. in another video jimster said that.
oh no that bell is my schools fire alarm SO ANNOYING
it goes well. lol that made me watch it lol.
Why does that bell ring for so long? And how are you able to go to these off-limits areas without security coming after you.
He might have a elevator photographer permit that enables him to do that.
klhudson99
Not likely but maybe he got permission to film or he just got lucky and there was no one there to catch him.
Normally security don't know if someone enters service corridors/areas.
He got permission
coondogtheman1234 That's a warning that the doors are closing so that the doors don't crush you.
That elevator needs to be modernized.
I guess the mall don't mind people going in the service corridor area.
the lantern is wired backwards...
at what point did the elevator break I didn't see it.
This video was made before when i born :0
@xderytuju so it did the same thing to you?
Annoying as it may be, those noises serve as a warning that the doors are closing so that the doors don't crush you.

It´s maybe going in "Nudge Mode"
This must be a hydraulic because the sound on the way up sounds to be a hydraulic piston activating
the part u came out of the hallway is the court pavilion.
I honetly would be finding where the bell is connected to and be disconnecting it.
You would think they would of painted the walls. They do here in Australia
TBH the scariest elevator is the one going up to Billy Penns HAT
are you freight?

@TechnologyGuy14 6,000lbs...
What even is the purpose of that bell??
i guess to be super annoying.
@@DieselDucy used to serve as a warning bell, until it was modernized and the doors started closing automatically, then was later removed.
Why do they need all that noise???
