Total Custom Installation! Amazing historic OTIS elevator in a private home

(8-29-2020) This was an amazing experience! This elevator was purchased by the homeowner and cut down to size to fit his stairwell. It has a modern roped hydraulic drive system. A HUGE thanks to the homeowner for allowing me to see your elevator!

It's amazing that they were able to get an Otis in their house. If I lived there, I would be riding that Otis all day long.

That is absolutely amazing. What an exquisite house. I wonder how much I costed to put in that hydraulic hoisting system

Yeah it is. The home owner and his cousin pretty much installed it themselves.

Like it how the elevator plays the first 4 notes of this famous organ piece “Carillon de Westminster”

[@dirkzw2122]

Very nice elevator. It is obvious that it is a shame that it lacks important safety devices. There is therefore a risk of serious accidents due to the lack of floor door locks or sensors that prevent the moving car from being crushed on the stairs. Since children also live in the house, retrofitting is urgently recommended.

It's a nice elevator blends in so well with the home's wood decor, the roped hydraulic system was perfect with mounting on the wall. The power unit is almost silent in operation I presume it's a single phase 240V AC.

OTIS did have a residential elevator market around the time this one was built. This could be one of those examples.

[@DieselDucy]

This was actually a commercial elevator that was cut down to size

I've been to a couple of houses that have an elevator. One of them was glass but I haven't seen a bird cage elevator in a home. That's neat.

WOW!

[@wesleyhernandez9219]

Yes

[@SoundLad]

wow i want it

[@its_sweet16_therandom46]

Imagin riding this at 3am, the bell sounds verry creepy

[@EWPA14]

It's a clock bell that happened to ring at the exact same time the elevator started. Notice how it didn't do that the other rides.

[@its_sweet16_therandom46]

That's why it was kind of creepy, but then it never rung after the video carried on

[@EWPA14]

It probably only rings once every half hour. But I guess if you went to it at exactly 3AM it would make that chime.

[@bryanschlippjr4894]

Actually Jared the clock heard in the background is a 4/4 chime which is all quarters to the hour.
