EPIC Elevators y'all with EPIC MOTOR Y'ALL on the first elevator but on the second elevator I loved the classic leveling
I love gated Otis elevators! Even that motor is amazing, DieselDucy!
I❤️u
Me too ✌🏼
Amazing diesel ducy thank you for all the videos
J
This whole place is amazing :)
1:40 - that gate just bounces off and opens slightly when the elevator already is moving. Thats funny!
I love the automatic inner gate. It’s vintage, with a touch of modern
It is amazing.
@@DieselDucy just like your videos x
@@guineagirl5078 Awww Thanks :)
Your videos are nice Andrew reams
Damm i love the way that old elevator door closes
it was AMAZING..
THIS IS SO EPIC!!!!!! The world needs more of these elevators.
It is amazing :)
no we don’t
Sir Diesel-Ducy, the elevators that i like overall is the 30*S one in the Park Place [70 Woodfin Place] and that other one w/ the modern buttons.
Yours truly,
President Edward Buziness
Gated Otis lift (elevator)! Epic video, Andrew! I live in England UK and my cousins flats in Brighton has an old Waygood-Otis lift with gated doors, even a side door! I believe it is from the 1930s. Also there are other old lifts in Brighton. There is a high rise old Otis although the higher floors are locked off because they are flats above floor 5 and only goes to the car park at the Holiday Inn, 2 Old Waygood-Otis lifts from 1938 at the old Ship Hotel, an old Express lift at Heales (Im not sure if its spelt Heales or Heals). Amazing editing too!
This comment is so true.
“Semi Automatic elevator” they had to remind people that you’re going to be waiting forever lol.
I have been to Taipei 101 , 1 or 2 weeks ago and my gosh , the elevator was lightning fast!!
1930 elevator: Works perfectly like it should
2000’s elevators: OUT OF SERVICE
Pretty much!
Beautiful old Otis elevators
That is the most important thing I've ever seen in the building
DieselDucy: don't slam the door
The elevator:
*Metal screech death noises*
O0
Lol
Considering I'll be close to Asheville soon, I'll definitely be checking these out!
have you made it in here yet?
Love that DC motor
I love the sound of the door motor! 😂

I visited these Monday. Very amazing elevators
Can I call you
They are EPIC!
THANKS FOR THAT VIDEO THIS IS SO EPIC THANK YOU 😊
Got a new video here
do a machine room tour of the both elavators
0:57 here it is turn on the light (Asmr) I love the sound when you opened the door
Thanks 🙏
The old one looks like the elevator out of Big Bang Theory
I love your videos Andrew
Nice motor!
Very similar to a Payne (2nd one, looks like Elevator C). Makes me wonder if this cab is a generic of it's day.
3:09 the only time I see videos of signs like that on modern elevators are on ones that are tiny and I just find it interesting how jumping willy nilly activates the safety device
Wow! that is very old elevator!!
The older the elevator, the better; besides this is probably his best video in my opinion
It is. Both are awesome though.
Are you guys riding in an elevator? That’s awesome i love you guys so much keep up the good work have a good night peace out
Nice elevator!
To think the 1930s elevator will turn 100 soon...
Yeah in 2030s
Nice rock music at the beginning
Very nice elevators, but with its ups and downs:1st elevator=Original classic antique fixtures and nice cab/machine, but the downside is the drop ceiling.
2nd elevator=Original, nice cab and machine, but 1 button is missing.
Love the 1930 fixtures
Soo missed these tours
More are coming!
uploaded a day after my birthday
Love those elevators
Me too
now this is an elevator. I like how the doors are manual ly opened and the gate is auto opened
or lift
SytRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
You are right there are two electors in here, it looks like a hospital🤗
It was at one point.
The Maintenance Manager at 70 woodfin place said they have to keep the sub basement button locked because your not supposed to go down there only the regular basement.
Cool. I wonder if this elevator is bottom drive.
Wow you have a great experience
Yes, thank you
This was a very interesting place. There is a lot history around us. These elevators seems to work very well.
I love these elvators :)
These 1930s and 1940s Otises are quite nice
Agreed
Very interesting elevator with nice black buttons
I love it
Epic
Thanks so much.
except for the slamming door its fantastic. does it actually have sub basement? second elevator is a piece of history.
THIS MOTER IS EPIC
4 = Fourth floor
3 = Third floor
2 = Second floor
1 = First floor
B = Basement
SB = Sub-basement (Locked off)
Epic!
Thanks
Ty e motor is FANTASTIC
Thanks!
The second elevator has a classic leveling
Mhm
I like the background music in the beginning. Anyone the name of the background music?
lol the gate clutch opens and shuts pritty quick to the point it bounced
Recent sub to your channel here. I remember riding one of these when these when I was a kid and thinking it was really neat. Thanks for showing!
Awesome! !!
Nice!! A couple beautiful Otis classics still running like new!! By the way, I kinda think the buzzing on the first elevator would be either a solenoid or possibly a motor contactor if a modification had been made. Either way, thanks for sharing these... gorgeous!!!
The buzzing is actually the relay that puts full power to the old AC motor
ElevatorMan5482 ElevExperiencing Productions That's what a contactor is...
Yeah, that is what I was thinking. It is NOT the motor. I think it may be bottom drive.
1:15 sub basement is locked off
5:50 roof is locked off
correct.
Epic motor sounds on the first one but on the automatic one you cant really hear it all that much oh well
like the inside lattice car gate, never seen one like that before, cant see the point of it though, apart from if its on another landing theres a good chance it will come down, has it got a safe edge ?
+Tony Baines or a car gate switch, it bounced a lot.
How do you access the Sub-Basement in this elevator since it's locked?
fr that gate closing is really looks intence
It slams lol
Wow! I love the camera recording this video! What is it? The camera must have a VERY high rez capability!
+Brent Dean Sony Handycam HDR PJ-760V
thank you very much! Now I know what to put on my Christmas wishlist!
It records at a framerate of 60fps
+Skander I'll stay tuned
Well in the beginning at 0:41 it glitched
you would think the gate bouncing like that would effect the interlock... assuming it has one
+Ross Craig-Browne
There would not be a car door interlock most likely, there would be a gate switch that would detect that the gate is closed. I guess the gate doesn't bounce open far enough for the elevator to detect it.
That would be so awesome to ride the Elevators but here in Australia we don't call them Elevators we call them lifts.
so if this was posted in 2015 that means that elevator is around 80 years old
Is the door correctly adjusted?
Thiago Felipe Navarro looking at the wear on the fixtures I can tell that the floor 1 and floor four buttons have been used a lot over the years as the rest of the buttons have almost no wear... people must have really needed to go to the top and main floor a lot
Wouldnt that gate bouncing like that break safety?
Do you know what kinda sound is it. 0:06
Dieselducuy you like elevators I like elevator
What is the sub basement?
Looks like the elevator from a tv show
Does this not have an interlock for the gate? Absolutely amazing motor and elevator in general!
+WestCoast Elevators The interlock might be built into the gate if you notice there is an arm that moves when the gate is opening and closing maybe the part at the end of the arm is the interlock.
+WestCoast Elevators Most gated elevators like this do not have an interlock but rather a device that looks like an interlock that completes a circuit when the door is closed allowing the elevator to move. This works like an interlock so that if you pull open the gate the elevator stops. Theoretically though you should be able to push on the device and complete the circuit allowing the elevator to move with the gate open, never tried it though.
+O Town Elevators
I would think that the gate bouncing open briefly as the elevator starts to move would cause any safety device that may exist to halt the elevator, at least momentarily.
+WestCoast Elevators Not always because the gate only has to be inside of the device for the elevator to move so when the gate bounces open a little it can still be completing the circuit.
+O Town Elevators
I guess depending on where the device is located the gate could still complete the circuit even open a bit, but it opens awfully far at 1:20.
That’s weird how a 1930s one works perfectly and a 2004 one is very temprimental
Because workmanship is GONE!.
Stuff was built SO much better back then.
Me Too!
What is the music called
*When you're so obsessed with elevators that you walk into random buildings for the sole purpose of hogging the elevator for five minutes going up and down, up and down.*
+ironmatic 1 yep lol :)

ironmatic 1 8
ironmatic

I have seen people trapped in this elevator..between floors. They must have moved too much! Fire dept had trouble getting them out...had to wait for the owner to bring the key:)
+Deborah Raven Kelly u work in this building ? The elevators are awesome
These are very nice elevators. Interesting to see the arm of the gate moving a little while the elevator is moving.
I love the elevators
i love how the doors close good how can it work? 1:19
Ok
Andrew have you seen "Harry Potter"? in The Order of the Phenox the elevators in the Ministry Of Magic
Dude this was the old day. Roof is locked.
Which one you pick
And the elevator sounds like a fire alarm
It sounds like a simplex 4903 series alarm
Wow
I like the bouncy gate!

Is the sub-basement working in the elevator
it is locked.
That Elevator Serves 5 Floors
Basement Level (B)
Ground Level (G)
Snowdrift Level (S)
Open Plan Level (O)
Roof Level (R)
No Numbers Needed
Always Need An External Door For An Open Plan Level For Snowdrifts

Ok) has been some fun until you get to work on a day of school to start a new job again soon to learn at 5:45 am
