@@davidng2336Strange, I've been on one where the Basement is locked so when it arrived on the Ground floor (1 floor above the basement) the up chime would ring, which makes sense considering the only way it would go down is if there was a call or the basement floor button would be unlocked.
Smart move closing it from the inside. It takes about three minutes to close from the outside. Looks like the ages is only ordinary wear and tear. Glad you got an update. When did you film this? Today? A month or so ago? I'm simply curious. Have a nice evening.
Close it from the inside, then leave. It takes forever if you close it from the outside call button, rather than to press door close inside then leave.
Maybe they decided to install a regular heavy duty traction motor intended for passenger elevators, instead of a motor meant for a freight elevator? Though most passenger motors only carry around 4,000 pounds, maybe they used one intended for larger passenger elevators?
0:06 Love that pass type door.
I always loved this elevator!
only my third freight elevator!
Jowevator 3219 what was your second?
Yah, what was your second freighter? I remember the Montgomery's you rode as your first, but what was second?
I think he counts those as his 1st & 2nd.
Elevating Western PA maybe
What’s on the 6th floor because I saw on these UA-cam elevator videos that the freight elevator serves the 6th floor
Interesting that the down chime rings while the car is still 1 floor up. Has a very sick buzzer, but wow that is a fast freight!
Otis elevators always ring the down chime when not on the bottom floor.

@@Jamestube8439 tbh I’m not 100% sure on how they determine the chimes. This is just my assumption.
@@davidng2336 ah ok, it’s a good hypothesis though that’s for sure!
I love that mall, especially with the round escalators. What part is it in? I'd love to ride it but could get in big trouble

alpalJL I learned the door timer trick from one of your videos. This was filmed in August
alpalJL wait what is the door timer trick?

Oh cool this one! Did you get the Mitsubishi service elevators?
no time
Jowevator 3219 just out of curiosity how many elevators did you film in San Francisco?
84 but I'm not going to post all of them
Jowevator 3219 oh cool!
No way that only holds 5000 lbs... that has to be an error
nope, watch some videos that others filmed! I couldn't belive it either
Maybe it was missing a number, it could be 15,000 lbs
Yeah that’s what I meant... I think a number was missing
Elevation Station Productions more like an error in the installation process. The panel etching says 5,000 and the certificate says that too.
