  • Yes, even if ThyssenKrupp worked on this elevator, it still looks nice and well maintained. After all, it's at a major hospital.

  • It might be a bad door sensor, a controller problem, or the door operator needs replacing.

  • Beautiful elevator for a parking garage. I really like it

  • FINALLY! Someone who agrees with me!!!

  • Yes, this "Blame this on (insert name)" is total nonsense, and even with the best companies, they do have that problem, but they can be repaired easily.

  • I've seen a Dover and a Schindler do that. All companies have their ups and downs, but not everyone else thinks that. They just think "blame Schindler" or "blame Dover" for 1 incident, when really it happens all the time, even in the industries best!

  • "Door-Disease"

  • What the hell is wrong with that elevator door. It close then open then close!?

    That's f***ed up!

  • Yes, sometimes these digital controllers aren't as reliable as the older relay controllers, when it comes to such elevator functions.

  • The Kone elevators on the Carnival Inspiration cruise ship also did some crazy things. Sometimes the floor buttons wouldn't activate in the car, other times both the up and down indicators would light up. One time, the left atrium elevator on the Atlantic deck wouldn't respond even though the up button on that deck was pressed. The door was open and the buttons worked, but the door never closed on the right elevator. Worse, each side runs on a different controller but serves the same floors.
