The outside door is OTIS modernized by Peelle.

I have a hard time believing that its capacity is just 6000 lbs.

That is a nice elevator! Too bad they did not put electric doors on this when it was modernized. By the way, i think this is a Dover!

@DoverElevators electric doors might be used for a hybrid passenger/freight elevator.  they modernized what had to be replaced. freight elevators let us see how they level.

crapper1 and i have the same camera! :)

This is the first time i've ever seen an elevator that actually goes right to the roof. Not only that, from the sounds of things there is a CARILLON on the other side!!

It sounds like you have PMS @ the beginning of the video. I'm surprised that you didn't turn the light off so that you could see better.

I've always wanted to ride a freight elevator

[CaptainElevator42189]

Nice for a freight elevator, and is this traction or hydraulic?

[04smallmj]

@CaptainElevator42189 Traction (4:30)

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, that's because this has 5 floors, and it goes fast.
