Schindler Hydraulic Elevator at the Concordia Academy & St. Paul Lutheran Church.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, this is indeed a death trap.

[TheTMillington]

i go to ca it is a death trap

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, it occurs at 0:23.

[mz5879]

two words DEATH TRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[CaptainElevator42189]

But they improved it, with the new chimes.

[an65001]

@CaptainElevator42189 That's no improvement. Just an ear rape.

[suzzex]

It sounds very sick.

:(

[CaptainElevator42189]

I know I don't like death traps, but I will accept your friend invitation, and you can start recording some elevator videos.

[FanManLover]

This Elevator Has A Rare Pitch Lower Pitch And Slower Tones Most Of The Lower Pitch Schindlers Have Lower Pitch And Faster Tones

[yamaguchiballas2]

death trap! oh and also can you accept or decline my friend invitation please? i love you elevator videos by the way!!!

[CaptainElevator42189]

They might as well replace all the hydraulics with a 400A MRL machine, and replace the signal fixtures to vandal resistant fixtures that don't weather out badly.

[an65001]

@CaptainElevator42189 And the MRLs might as well just rot in 15 years. :P

You need a well-built MRL. Like regular 400A. But MRLs will just replace each other, not hydros.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, but that shows that even traditional traction is just as good as MRL, but is better made. If you want a traction in a low rise building, go with bottom drive.

[thyssenelevator97]

100% death trap i watched the retake the retake sounds a little better about 5% they still never fixed it.

[FanManLover]

did you make the video yet

[elevatorsonly]

He already made the video as I saw the new video!

[FanManLover]

Do They Service The Elevator And Did You Make The Video Of The Elevator Yet?

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, I did make the new video, and I hope it's better than this one. Also, they serviced the elevator by changing the pitch of the bells.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, it sounds rather rough and beaten up.

[alpaljl]

terrible motor

[CaptainElevator42189]

Well, I had some Christmas shopping to do, so I didn't have time.

[FanManLover]

Hi Did You Make The Video Of The Elevator Yet. Just Woundering

[CaptainElevator42189]

I already did.

[CaptainElevator42189]

The machine room is behind the elevator, and I can just put my ear next to the door to hear the motor.

[FanManLover]

Does The Elevator Have A Service Room If It Does Can You Get The Start Up Noise Of What The Motor Sound Like. I Really Like The Sound Elevators When They Start Up

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, I did hear the rattling noise when it took off, and the slow levelling when it went down.

[MicroMMElevator]

It's A Death Trap Because I Heard It Rattle When It Took Off

[CaptainElevator42189]

You're welcome.

[FanManLover]

OK Thanks For Making The Video For Me

[FanManLover]

All Right :)

[CaptainElevator42189]

Okay, I will.

[FanManLover]

Can You Make Another Video Or This Elevator? I Really Like This Elevator

[CaptainElevator42189]

I like the bells on there, and I do like Schindler elevators a lot.

[FanManLover]

I like The Tone Of The Bell Can You Retake The Bell And The Elevator And I really Like Those Elevators

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, they should remove the death trap, and raise the tone of the bell.

[ElevatorMan2012]

Wow that thing needs some fixing up. Especially that horrible bell.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, and it's very slow when going down.

[lumix14]

Death trap- going up.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes. It probably would have been better had it been inside the building, and enclosed.

[9862671]

rough takeoff and a funky bell but i would say its probaly took a beating from the weather like captain elevator told me when he replied to one of my comments

[CaptainElevator42189]

I think so.

[Baytrail]

Was the 2nd floor arrow and button also weathered like that?

[CaptainElevator42189]

It's actually used for the St. Paul Lutheran Church, but the University also uses it for offices.

[Baytrail]

What is (or was) this elevator used (or being used) for?

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, and it's pretty bumpy.

[crapper1]

the takeoff going to 2 sounds like the shaking you hear in airplanes when the pilot slams the plane into the runway

[CaptainElevator42189]

I think there wasn't enough space inside, so they thought that installing the elevator outside was the only solution.

[Elevator5519]

Why Is That Elevator Outside?

[9862671]

captain elevator the bell sounds a little messed up and it sounds rough taking off i would have freaked out if i was in there

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, since it was outdoors, and it might have taken a beating from the weather.

[CaptainElevator42189]

That's because this is actually not part of the university.

[rovert1992]

yes the university is being torn down. but the elevator is not being torn down.

[CaptainElevator42189]

No, but I wanted to record the elevators during their final farewell of the old university, which is now being torn down.

[andkore]

Are you a Concordia University student?

[CaptainElevator42189]

We make elevator videos for everyone to enjoy.

[andkore]

Umm. I go to this school. Just wondering, who are you people?

[seClip9]

Looks like it has survive rough conditions during its useage.

[CaptainElevator42189]

I agree, which means this elevator, like other major brand elevators are built to last.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, it should have had a much smoother start.

[dheaton5]

i would have freaked out if i was in there. good video!

[CaptainElevator42189]

Thank you.

[dheaton5]

dang that thing jolted in the beginning when it was going up

[CaptainElevator42189]

Yes, it sure did, since it's made of polycarbonate, and therefore the lights don't light up so much.

[cartoonyboy]

WOW! The outside call button got weathered by the sun.

[cartoonyboy]

And I have never seen anything like it.

[CaptainElevator42189]

Sometimes, but this had a rather bumpy ride.

[Ih8escalators]

Th sound skips. Can you retake this one?
