This elevator reminds me of the Kettering University Dorm Dover elevator, and a Montgomery elevator that I also have that uses keypads.

Actually, the Dorm elevator just used Best locks. There are 2 different sets for that one - one for facilities workers and students who need to use the elevator to transport large objects - and another one for handicap students that works with a lower, more accessible panel.

I think that some elevators at RIT has a strange set up or occurance. And this is my first year at RIT. some i wich tehy would just replace or get a better motor.

My guess is it was an open house and therefore temporary.

I've only seen one elevator that has the keypad to call the elevator here in Little Rock.

Pretty interesting how you have to key in a code to call the elevator, I haven't seen that before. Nice elevator tough.

What is the point of putting a code for the elevator, if you are going to put the numbers right there in plain sight? Why even have a "passworded" elevator?
