MODDED AGAIN!!! Otis/Murphy & 2019 Murphy Elevators at Galt House Hotel Rivue Tower, Louisville, KY

[@dominicehrler2054]

I’m a mechanic at Murphy and have worked on these units many times. This was a complete mod, no more Otis machines. We replaced them with Torin Gearless machines, and MCE 5000 for the service cars and MCE iBox for the passenger cars. The Otis gearless machines ran at 500 fpm and these new ones run at 800 fpm, they are much for efficient for people transportation.

[@FloridianElevators]

Awesome!!! That's really cool. Are you guys modding the other tower yet or no? Thanks for the info btw

[@qeelevators2960]

Torin machines are awesome. They are my favorite “generic” machines with imperial being my second favorite. They are almost silent and very efficient. Eventually it will pay off with electrical bills, unless they mod it in 6 years for no reason.

Thank you so much for the information.

I like the second mod. It's cool to see modded elevators but after like six years and gets modded again it's basically pointless especially for it's price point. But at the same time merphy is great company and creates nice elevators.

[@everesthines2228]

[@qeelevators2960]

Yeah, I think it was mainly because these had their original controllers and everything and they only replaced the fixtures, but they wanted energy efficiency

[@mjloveselevators]

You are a fount of knowledge! 😀😀

[@dominicehrler2054]

Also to clear it up, these weren’t modded in 2013-2014.... they were modded in 2004 I believe, just cab, fixtures, and controllers.

[@FloridianElevators]

Interesting. Cause Dieselducy filmed these in 2012 and they had Innovation fixtures, but in 2013-14 and after, every video of these showed them having different fixtures which were the ones seen in this video. The mod I'm referring to was just a fixture replacement and cab remodel. Nothing else was replaced.

[@TheElevatorandAirplaneFinder]

Personally, the Decorator older cabs don't look as nice to me as the newer, and the chime is annoying. I wouldn't care if they left the nice touch buttons in tho, sad to see more Otis touch go. But, I do love the bruiser ones, they look really good.

[@lv16jismij]

I am likely font expert maker for digital elevator floor indicator and I can edit and make the elevator font of any kind of LED floor indicator-everytime I listen to music, I make an elevator with wordpad going up when pressing Redo, down when pressing Undo. (Does America still skip 13th floor these days in the elevator? It's just like Korea used to skip 4th floor)

[@scratchpad7954]

It is becoming less common. I've been in several buildings that count the 13th floor, though they are newer. However, it is still a relatively common superstition. A hotel I stayed at a few months ago in Canada wasn't tall enough (seven floors) to worry about it skipping the 13th floor, but in a bank of rooms on the ground floor by the pool, there was no room 113. I have yet to go to South Korea, but from what I know, it is a common practice in Asia to skip the fourth floor because Korean, Chinese, and Japanese have words for death that are pronounced very similarly to their words for 4. In my personal experience, hotels are a notoriously superstitious bunch.

[@elevatorsinnz]

On the old ones should of had a cab refurbishment and they should have disabled the floor passing beeps

[@jackx.cassway]

I watched a video that said these songs elevators got modded because the hotel wanted to increase the speed of the elevators.

[@PNWElevatorAviation]

I guess this hotel just loves to spend sooo much money on a lot of Murphy Elevator Mods!! Aka a Money spender Building. They probably do it cause they're brand new & so they can get very easy access to look and directly get the parts. I'm sure these are gonna get Modded AGAIN FOR THE FOURTH TIME in the next five years which is gonna be 2024!!

[@FloridianElevators]

I sure hope not LOL.... They existing elevators were already great as is, and the new 2019 Murphys' are fantastic!!!! It would be a horrible idea to mod them again anytime soon....

@@FloridianElevators I bet y'all they probably would... Because they cannot make their FUCKING minds-up areadly!

[@NathanDavisVideos]

@@FloridianElevators BTW... FUCK INNOVATION BRUISER!!!

[@FloridianElevators]

@@NathanDavisVideos Sadly you're probably right. But I'm hoping this is the last mod for a while being the new mod is a 99% total gut out and replacement of everything from the cars, guiderails, motors, controllers, shaft equipment, doors, etc. Plus, the New Hollister Whitney motors these have were built the same way they way back in the 1930s and are completely handcrafted, and as a result are the best elevator motors on the market today, so ripping them out anytime soon would be really stupid.... Ripping out the Old Otis DC Motors was already stupid enough being they were built to practically last forever too, but the new motors are excellent as well.

[@FloridianElevators]

The previous mod was just a slap on COP mod with new paneling, cab paint/wallpaper and carpet, and the first mod done in the 90s was just new controllers and fixtures. But the new mod is a total replacement that wasn't really needed despite how good it is. If they mod them again though, I'm gonna lose it...

[@notactive19717]

In the beginning of the vid what was all that noise? Was it construction going on in the elevators?

[@FloridianElevators]

Either that or renovations in general. This place is going through a $100+ million dollar renovation to all of its rooms and public areas for the next couple years.

[@elevatoralarmcoasterandarc1214]

There is a rotating restaurant at the top of the tower and the elevators are enclosed so that I don't have acrophobia!

[@IanGSully]

That is pretty fast, but do they need to make it that fast for a 25-floor building?

[@scratchpad7954]

Honestly, yes. In my hometown of Salt Lake City, Utah, there are several buildings that tall. The best known of these whose elevators I've had the privilege of riding are the Wells Fargo Center (office), the Promontory at City Creek Center (residential), the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints office tower (office), and the Grand America Hotel (lodging).

Floridian Elevators those elevators were fine! Andrew said the elevator service was great! Wonder if those broke down a lot.

[@FloridianElevators]

@@williamscoufaras7045 All of the elevators here were just fine and this mod was totally unnecessary as the elevators were perfectly efficient. The only reason I approve this mod at all is because the new cabs fit the new modern style of the hotel renovations more, the new motors are just as good as the old ones being the new Hollister Whitney motors are made the same way they were in the 30s, and they made the elevators faster. But it wasn't really needed though whatsoever being they already were perfectly efficient and being they just had did a slap on mod and cab refurb just a few years ago

[@GabesAwesomeVids1234]

To those of you who are scared elevators are actually very safe and they have all kinds of emergency systems like emergency brakes in case the cables snap and the people who save you from a stuck elevator are very professional so if you get stuck you just call and don’t worry about anything else the elevator cables are really strong and the chances of the cables breaking are lower than getting stuck but the chances of getting stuck are lower too but not lower than the cables snapping so you’re very safe. Hydraulic elevators are actually elevators where there’s a hydraulic press that pushes the elevator up and pulls the elevator down so if you get stuck in either a hydraulic elevator or a traction elevator just call for help and you will be alright. The people are very skilled and they will get you out of the elevator and if the cables snap lay down flat on the floor and cover your head from the impact. You have to be very quick when you do this because of the gravity making things fall fast so you have to be as quick as a cheetah when lying on the ground and protecting you head, but you don’t have to worry about any of that stuff because like I said the percent chance of that stuff happening is very low so you are very safe in an elevator

@@FloridianElevators What I'm saying about the doorframes is the curved ones are gone (replaced) on the 2 new ones on the bottom level but all 4 are curved on 25 (including the new ones). I wish they would've left them alone on the bottom floor also...
