Dover Hydraulic elevator @ City Market Roanoke VA

Instead of having ThyssenKrapp molest this, they could have renovated the cab but left everything else alone.

Run down Dover elevator. This isn't a great elevator. It got a break for about a year though.

Fancy white bumper! WHat are the names of these fixtures? I see them all the time...

[revo8778]

Idk what dover called them, but ThyssenKrupp refers to them as "Traditional" fixtures. They were sold like this for quite a while until TK redesigned them. You can still find the brochure for the older Traditional fixtures on their website.

[suzzex]

They are called Dover Classic. Where can I find the brochure? TK only has theirs.

Plain old Dover. I like the white bumper. But I couldnt believe the footprints on the walls.

Looks like it should still be condemned, if the elevator says anything about the building. What's the weird series of clicks and blackouts at the end of your recordings as of late? We have a market that's filthy as well, called "The Bodega". It's infested, and dealers hide drugs in foodstuffs at the rear of the shelves. They've been shut down many times, yet still manage to reopen.

[schindlerman96]

how do you get in a place that was shutdown like that

[mysteriousjustin]

maybe it was reopened?

[dieselducy]

it was reopened i believe right before thanksgiving last year. I however have not eaten here since the reopening. i am a little hesitant to. the rodent infestation made the news here.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Interesting to see a white bumper. But this is a rather plain looking elevator.

[patricknedz]

was that a westinghouse fountain in the end?

[dieselducy]

It was an ElKay

[ElevatorMan2012]

I don't think Westinghouse makes water fountains.That would be cool though.

[patricknedz]

yes they do! I have a video of one.

[dontwalkhand]

They actually did. Patrick has a video of a Westinghouse Water Foutain next to a Westinghouse elevator!

Westinghouse today makes computer monitors, and other consumer appliances, but left the elevator and water fountain business it seems.

[suzzex]

Schindler took over Westinghouse's elevator company. I don't know about the other products though...

[elevatorsonly]

Westinghouse is still alive for stuff other than elevators/escalators. I have a Westinghouse TV in my room.

[suzzex]

Oh, thanks for the info. That is really good to know, because I am trying to put together information on the different companies. Thanks for sharing, and I hope I come across one!

[neaelevator]

They used to make them a long time ago. They had a W symbol on a small trinket attached to the front of the fountain. Probably in the 60's or 70's.

[elevatorfreak112]

@neaelevator and roman numerals were used a couple of times on these fixtures

[CRANEPlumbing]

door on that closes pretty fast. nice to see something different
