This is PART 3, the final part. Starting from floor 23 (roof) then all the way to floor 2 (the basement).
On our way down we have a look at the BMU, a BMS, the low rise motor room, then on top - inside - and below the lift cars, then a few extras on the way down.
..........
See the SMASHED OUT LIFTS VIDEO (mentioned at 7.50) here:
• VANDALISM? Why lifts ...
..........
A lot of editing went into creating this video, building plans, animations, voice overs and everything timed perfectly to music. It's what you'd expect from the mrmattandmrchay channel - QUALITY NOT QUANTITY.
I'm hoping we've done enough to be worthy of your support...please consider subscribing to the mrmattandmrchay channel - thank you!
Pronounced 'Ack-kon-ic', this is a very rare lift control system which was way ahead of it's time in the 1970s.

IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT SAFETY AND KZfaq:
My channel does not promote or glamourise dangerous activities like lift surfing.

VERY WORRYING... 12 year old kids surfing lifts: (link below)
• Random lift adventure 13
mrmattandmrchay is a RESPONSIBLE and RESPECTABLE channel.
It goes without saying that KZfaq is a public platform and our channels are popular with kids, and kids are influenced by what they watch. I'd like to think these kids didn't get the idea of surfing lifts from 'my' channel.
A warning in a video DOES NOT exonerate you if harm should come to a kid that was copying something that YOU have portrayed as a fun activity.

What is my channel about? "Old lift machinery made interesting", old air-raid sirens, prehistoric alarm equipment. If "I" don't find it interesting ...then IT DOESN'T GET UPLOADED!
I always spend a lot of time editing my videos with animations, video in-sync with music and voice overs to bring you QUALITY videos to watch.
My moto - "Quality NOT Quantity" - spending a month editing a video is not a rarity!

Notice the Scantronic 9500 address code on the PIR. Buss No. then LIM number and then circuit No. I loved the old 9500. It had a super loud siren on full alarm and was very stable..... Err unless a thunder storm came along 😂 Actually in my younger days I did a large 9500 install that never gave a problem. I am sure the reason was that we used screened cable for the buss. Most installers used standard alarm cable. I'm feeling all nostalgic now 😁 Fantastic well made video as always. I like the fact that you include other plant and not just the lifts 👍

I find it interesting how despite the state of the area right outside the lifts, the interiors and particularly the button panels inside still look in good shape relatively speaking. Those poor old rare schindler R-Series buttons unable to continue doing their job, but it is interesting to see the alarm button glows in the dark, thats pretty cool. Hope all is well and im looking forward to the next parts :)

Hi Matt how are you doing mate? Its really nice to see you uploading another video again after a bit of time great video as always this place is in a sad state unfortunately the lifts are so cool and amazing so they weren't bothered to modernise them whilst the tower was open i think the reason why they stripped out the inside of the lift shafts is to take all the metal parts or copper wiring and sell them on for cash to a scrap yard whilst the prices of scrap metal and copper wiring are high at the moment hope your having a good day so far Matt and I also hope that Chay is doing good as well 👍

Superb! One of the things I've been wanted to see is the inside of the lift car and here it is, nice to see they're still largerly intact. Wonder why they trashed the high rise lifts instead? Would've been cool if they were still intact as well. Interesting to see the R-Series alarm button glows in the dark. Surely that would make people to find the alarm button easier should the power goes out and they get trapped inside. Nowadays most lifts would have their alarm buttons illuminate by their light instead of self illuminating like this :)

Hi Mr Matt and Mr Chay! Your videos are always well done and I can see a lot of effort was put into making the videos. You seem to know a lot about elevators so I wanted to ask you a question! :D I noticed something weird while I was visiting Toronto. On a lift there, the button panel had the Schindler logo but next to the gap but on the entrance there was an Otis logo on the floor. Was the lift manufactured by Otis and later modernised by Schindler? Thanks!

24:17 At least in my country, newer lifts (e.g. by Fujitec & Sigma) may use a thicker compensating chain instead of compensating cables, maybe as the former is cheaper as it doesn't need to be as smooth as the load-bearing cables that connect the lift car to the motor & counterweight. To be fair, on the other hand I've also seen a Mitsubishi in my country (probably the Elenessa model made in 2009) that's just 6 floors tall but with a compensating chain too (which is also covered with a plastic sleeve tubing)

Hi, Matt. I hope you’re doing well. I always enjoy your videos and the effort you put into them. In your example of transitioning from low to high rise lifts you said a person traveling from floor 10 to 18 would need to go to 12 to transition to the high rise lifts. But it also appears lift 5 serves all floors too?

I suspect that the Schindler "know your lift" signs probabaly aren't original, since they depict M-Series buttons in the drawings, which didn't come out until sometime in the 1980s. The glow in the dark alarm button is pretty awesome. Never seen anything like that before. How much use would that actually be I wonder? If the lights go out, then power is probably out....if power's out then the alarm may not work anyway? I do find it very odd that the freight lift was upgraded, but the passenger lifts weren't. Usually in buildings, it's more likely that they will upgrade your passenger lifts, as these would see WAY more use, and therefore more wear & tear. Would be interesting to know why the service lift was done, and whether or not there were ever any plan to upgrade the main lifts at any time (that evidently never happened because the building closed).
@mrmattandmrchay
@mrmattandmrchay Жыл бұрын
I wonder how many people actually read and found the 'know your lift' useful! The glowing alarm button was a nice touch, probably before emergency lighting was installed in the lifts. All alarm buttons should be run from a power supply with a back up battery, so I'm guessing the alarm will still work locally if power goes off. I didn't see any signs of it, but I didn't specifically look for it. I'm guessing that the upgrades were related to costs. To replace a goods lift that serves only 2 or 3 landings wouldn't be that expensive. But to replace 6 passenger lifts serving 23 floors would be enormous - cheaper to replace parts rather than modernise them completely. Obviously, there comes a point when engineers no longer have the knowledge to diagnose and repair that system and replacing them in inevitable, but closure of the building came first!

@@mrmattandmrchay As well as knowledge, sourcing parts is an issue. The lifts at the Hospital I work at are getting their long-overdue replacement due to the fact that parts for 1960s and 70s OTIS lifts are hard & expensive to get, and the breakdowns so frequent. Apparantly they discovered whilst doing the Purple Lifts that the controllers on cars 3 and 4 had been changed at some point, becuase they couldn't get the parts for them.With our Blue lifts, cars 1 and 2 were decommissioned to be used as "spare parts" lifts to keep cars 3 and 4 working until they can be replaced (due to start later this year). All in all, there are 23 lifts needing upgrades!

Hi Sam. The low rise lifts serve floors 2 - 12 only. Floor 13 is access to lift shaft only for the low rise. What is the mm:ss for the down arrow you mentioned? - ah you mean the car operating panel? Probably the button was lost or broke, and the engineer didn't have a replacement "12" button, all he could find is a landing station (up/dn) so had to use this instead.

One day some time ago, these lifts made their final calls unbeknownst to them. They came to rest on the current floors, never again to be moved. The final passengers exited the building and they've been left to dwell and decay on their own with just a few "visitors" passing by from time to time to harvest their parts, further ensuring they'd never move again.

@@mrmattandmrchay When the owners decide to decommission a building do they send in a crew the switch off and strip the electrical distribution panels in the plant rooms and leave or are the elevators Individually decommissioned? If so do they just scrap the electronics and leave the cars where they happen to be? Also the cabinets still have many components left. Do they just remove enough to make it unworkable? I always wonder why they don't strip the cabinets clean.

Too long between videos. I can't remember the first two and I don't have time to rewatch them.

A bit of an unneccessary comment - whether you watch, or don't watch, well that's up to you. I don't need to justify the gap between videos - it is what it is. Some videos take longer to edit that others. Although it's nice to upload more often, nothing's going to change the amount of time some of these videos (like this one) take to edit and KZfaq isn't my day time job and I wouldn't want it to be.

Just stop with that fake slomotion, it’s obnoxious and nauseating… Almost as if amateurs recorded and edited this.

"Recorded and edited by amateurs". Ok, so I go to YOUR channel to see your example(s) of a 'professionally edited' video and I find... Nothing!? Unless you can offer something that's edited to a better standard than my video, then I suggest you refrain from criticizing other people. Judging by your content, I don't think you have any idea of what you're talking about regarding content, editing and methods.
