Interesting seeing a gated lift of 10 floors. Usually I would imagine at least a cheap automatic lift but I’m surprised. However it looks like there isn’t much space between floors so that 0.66 m/s speed seems reasonable, but will definitely be a hindrance during busy days. To be frank I have yet to see a gated lift travelling at 1m/s or higher.
Do you know if elevators with open gated hoistway (shaft) & car doors are still installed in India in the present day, or do new installations have to have solid hoistway doors (that are not possible to reach through) for safety reasons?
@@NeilPrasad_1905 When you say people "prefer" open elevators, are you referring to building owners/developers, or building occupants/the general public? And by "prefer" do you mean because they are the cheapest type of doors to install, or for some other reason (i.e. people feel less claustrophobic)?
@@upanddownadventures Almost everyone in this building love this type of elevators and that is what they meant by open elevator. This can only limit to 10 or 12 floors for safety reasons. And no, not necessarily the cheapest type of doors. It's actually the choice of the owners of the building, they don't have to buy the cheapest elevator model for the cheapest price. They just have to determine what's more suitable and flexible.
@@NeilPrasad_1905 I was wondering why open gate type doors are used even on new elevators rather than doors similar to the Otis black button swing door elevator you filmed (which is a scissor gate covered in panels so you can't reach through it). I could be wrong, but I wouldn't think it is too much more expensive than an open scissor gate, and it is certainly safer. I was curious if open scissor gates are used because the building owner wanted to go with the cheapest solution, or if they go with them as the occupants of the building may be more comfortable with open gated elevators, possibly because people who are claustrophobic (afraid of small spaces) may feel more comfortable riding them. I do have to say, even though open scissor gates are not the safest solution, from an elevator enthusiast's perspective I do like them, and the gated elevators of India certainly look like they would be interesting to ride.

this speed is probably the same when it was original back when I first saw it in 2012.
Muy lindo video
Bro this lift music my favourite yeh music konsa hai

Already most new installations have solid hoistway doors but rarely a few modern elevators in India are still gated.
What happened to other elevator
in the video? Turned off
You made this video in 25th November 2021?
No, August 2021
❤❤
A gated elevator from 1996? 🤯
yeah. one of the reasons being people only preferring open elevators which aren't safe.
