  • I Been in one of those elevator buttons like that in BYU in UTAH

  • This is really random, but my microwave does something similar to the fireman's hat. The light in the microwave doesn't light up when you open it, but when you close it, it flashes. I think it does that to let you know the door is closed completely. I think the Fireman's hat thing does that to show you it's working, possibly.

  • that soun ded like a lighter otis bell

  • Oh absolutely, and you can certainly do that elevator. Also, what does RIT stand for?

  • Where's the RIT? (At what time in the video)? I might be able to figure it out.

  • Another person took another video of an elevator at Austin College that looked very similar to this one, and commented that it was an Otis Elevator.

  • Actually, I take it back. ElevatorFan762 did a video that had these same signal fixtures, and it's actually a US Elevator.

  • On the down direction, why'd it go "bun, bun. Instead of buunnn buunnn?"

  • I think it's a Otis because of the buttons and the floor decals.

  • I don't think so. 'Cuz I have seen the similar one at RIT college. (Except it have vandal-proof buttons)

  • So if that's the case, will you sometime record that elevator at RIT?

  • Actually, I'm not in RIT anymore. I withdrew last November due to personal and career choice problem. However...if I go up there to visit, I might can.

  • I was in an elevator like that in one of the anchor stores at a local mall. The up/down indicator was at the rear of the car. It also had that same tone with the up/down. The buzz may be an earlier type of Thyssenkrupp's annoying buzz on the floor indicator. If you're wondering, it's an old Dover!

  • WAIT!! I just verified the fact that this is a US elevator, not Dover!!

  • Thats an otis elevator Elisha Graves Otis invented the first passenger elevator 1853 the elevators at canidas CN tower sears tower in chicogo eifel tower we learnded about otis in history class I know alot about elevators but I have no idea who made the elevator in macys or the class elevator at monroville mall I like thyssenkrupp the best they have nice fixtures

  • Whay did you only go up, instead of both up and down?

  • That's an Otis; one church nearby has one with those same fixtures and buttons.

  • It is a US elevator from one of my US elevator videos.

  • Was that elevator at the church that you recorded today?

  • Yes.

  • Thank you so much.

  • Actually, that looks more like a United States Elevator, because of the jamb plates and cab appearance.

  • Also, if the other buildings use Dover and ThyssenKrupp elevators, the United States Elevator Company was bought out by ThyssenKrupp in 1993.

  • It looks like an Abell.
