These elevators are pretty epic

@blueauraretriever 4 года назад

Fast for 8 stories in general especially hydraulic :) And it's a *great* lift!

@SamSitar 4 года назад

i enjoyed the speed as well.

@chasem8491 4 года назад

For some odd reason, I think of McDonald's when I watch your intro card. ;P

@Jamestube8439 4 года назад

Perhaps because of the STL Arch, since McDonald's has the golden arch, or since Jason and Andrew meet up all the time and Andrew is always going to McDonald's.

Sounds like the 7 STORY HIGHDRAULIC Montgomery Elevators at the Double Westminster, CO same Motor Pitch!!

@misterakt 3 года назад

this is one of the coolest sets of Dover hydros ive seen

@stlelevators 3 года назад

Same here. These are really cool.

@misterakt 3 года назад

@@stlelevators i love the pitch of the motors. it has that really particular sound that only some older Dovers have. sounds like the ones from the 60s on NEA Elevator’s channel before they were modded. has an almost “rattly” sound to them (in a good way!) if that makes sense lol

@themaddasher7783 4 года назад

Nice E-flat pitched motor on the right elevator!

@jonathancreveling5658 18 дней назад

At the very beginning, there's a set of doors with a table blocking them, wonder where those went to.

@lukerichardson8411 4 года назад

The left elevator sounds like streight garage. But the cabs on these elevator aren't really that bad.

@SamSitar 4 года назад

that is the epitome of hydraulic elevators.

@alexanderselevators 4 года назад

Where’s the machine room for the third elevator (the one with the brand new floor indicator)?

@stlelevators 4 года назад

I’m not sure. I think it’s back behind a locked door.

Not bad elevators

A roped hydraulic elevator

@serbianelevators 4 года назад

This is so fast for hydraulic must be traction. Is the 3rd elevator's indicator original or replacement by some fucking generic company???

@stlelevators 4 года назад

The third was a replacement. The original one probably broke.

@serbianelevators 4 года назад

@@stlelevators OK but new one looks very nice.

@TheTheo58 4 года назад

submersible power units sound terrible, likely worn bearings, armature might be running out of balance. Sounds like a great deal of vibration. I am a bit surprised traction elevators were not installed, being a hotel. Eight floors for a hydraulic elevator is pushing it.

@stlelevators 4 года назад

Yeah, but that's Dover for you.

@lukerichardson8411 4 года назад

@@stlelevators Any idea what's up with the left glass elevator? Sounds like its gonna go into a nuclear meltdown state.

@qeelevators2960 4 года назад

Those are dry powered

@Jamestube8439 4 года назад

The 2nd elevator has a terrible door operator, wow that is loud, also it seems like these are relay controlled.

@SamSitar 4 года назад

fixing that door operate would help.

@Jamestube8439 4 года назад

@@SamSitar Yeah, it's really loud and annoying.

@ElevatoringProductions 4 года назад

Yikes, that pump is in bad shape.

@SamSitar 4 года назад

it's probably very tired.

@zierewolfo46 4 года назад

Nice elevators, but ouch, that left one is crying desperately for help. Also the indicator on the back one looks absolutely horrendous and disgusting... Reminds me of one of those Generic UK mod indicators.

@AlecRoth-id8fp 4 года назад

These are no worse then the elevators at the clarion inn at lake buena Vista Florida

@jamesmccrackyn3547 4 года назад

THAT'S A TRACTION ELEVATOR

@stlelevators 4 года назад

and your proof?

@qeelevators2960 4 года назад

That’s not traction lol.

@SeattleElevators 4 года назад

I believe Dover is known for their high hydraulic elevators. Those are epic! I know of a dover Impulse high hydraulic that over heated and caught fire.

@TheMatsushitaMan 4 года назад

How? What happened

@qeelevators2960 2 года назад

I found a 8 floor Dover hydro that was almost twice as fast as this one but it was really low on oil, which is terrible for the pump.
