  • These are some quite rare Schindler lifts in the hotel I was staying in.
    Typical older generation Schindler fast doors with the nice 'dong-dong' arrival chimes.
    These are quite fast and interesting (hence the upload!)
    Don't forget to see my other video, as there are some OLD 1970s OTIS lifts behind these ones, for the service staff - of course I checked them out!! :D

    3:25 Meanwhile my country has some 47-storey public housing apartment blocks (8 units per floor) that're each served by 4 lifts serving all floors. With a rooftop garden, they attract many visitors when fireworks are set off to celebrate the new year, leading to ~1h queues for the lifts for residents returning home though

      4 lifts and 47 floors?! No-wonder they're queues to get out! That's a massive amount of floors to serve.

    They're indeed rare: Only 3 in Toulouse (France) up to this day with two of them that are hydraulic and only one that is traction.
    The trouble is that both hydraulics have a keypad inside the car that locks all floors and the traction one is not really accessible to the public. ):
    (Oh I forgot to mention that one of the hydraulics and the traction don't even have shaft lights !)

    My understanding is that that in some hotels it is common to miss out room 13's and floor 13's due to them historically being seen as bad luck, however i suspect modern hotels simply do this because of tradition.

    Fyi, these Schindler S-Series push buttons uses microswitch (hence the click) made by Saia Burgess, a Swiss electronics company.

    0:40 I didnt know that one on the left had a telescoping door on it it looked like the middle one with the center open system

  • @Knaeckebrotsaege
    @Knaeckebrotsaege 6 років тому +1

    There's one of these in a way more basic form (no chimes, only 2 floors, basic cabin) near where I live (Germany) in a medical center that was remodeled in the early 90s. The whole building has had some remodeling done fairly recently, but they left the lift untouched other than a new door frame I think. Seems to be pretty reliable. What's so special about these or are they just rare? (and if so why.. too expensive back then?)

    • @mrmattandmrchay
      @mrmattandmrchay  6 років тому

      The interesting things about these are the chimes and up/down LED on the landings. I was more interested in the lifts at the back (70s Otis) - oh and the bushes at the front of the building lol.

    I think Schindler with S-Series fixtures are rare in the world with an exception of Bangkok, Thailand. S-Series here are installed around 10-20 places. Any place like this?

    • @Knaeckebrotsaege
      @Knaeckebrotsaege 6 років тому

      There's a very basic (no chimes, 2 floors, basic cabin) S-Series near where I live in Germany, installed in a medical center when it was remodeled in the early 90s. It's the only S-Series I know of here.

      Singapore's Ngee Ann City shopping centre used to have S-Series fixtures in its cargo lifts (but M-Line call buttons & lanterns), while passenger lifts had S-Series lift lobby floor indicators (but other fixtures were M-Line) until modernization by Kone in 2013

    These Schindler lifts are the "designS" model from the mid-1980s. Are these lifts modernized back then?

    Perhaps you should set your quality settings higher than 240p?

      floors -1 and 13 are most likely staff only floors and not served by the public lifts. Probably if you were to go in a service lift you would find those floors.

    • @QuarioQuario54321
      @QuarioQuario54321 8 років тому

      +The_ALEX_ELLIS_Channel 13 doesn't exist at all, so after 12 it has an American Numbering Scheme where the ground floor is 1, first floor is 2 and so on. -1 Does exist as well as a -3.
