Grotty car park in Purley and I'VE GOT A U KEY!

[@DiodeGoneWild]

4:15 - They heard Beno is coming... So they put 3 different padlocks on the motor room :D. By the way, steel is much stronger than aluminium.

It's a pity to see one of the lifts unable to open it's doors (all of the lifts have sadly being replaced)

[@SlimShady34909]

They did this as i fell into the lift a few years ago and damaged my back, the lifts where a ft lower than they should have been. They got condemned and remained locked due to lack of funding to buy new ones. They have since been replaced.

[@wisteela]

I love your enthusiasm 😀👍

[@paulhunter123]

i used to ride these lifts as a kid in the mid 80s - it used to be sainsburies.

[@liftsadventurevideosinfran7966]

In France, we use U keys on old some Otis Prelexan landing doors, we call them "clé demi-lune" (Half moon key)

[@psirvent8]

Et les portes sont dites Orly d'après les techniciens eux-mêmes. Bizarre comme nom et pourtant... Oui c'est une clé demi-lune sinon et j'ai réussi à fabriquer la mienne avec un tube en acier acheté chez Brico truc truc , une scie à métaux et un marteau.

[@liftsadventurevideosinfran7966]

Exactement, c'est la célèbre porte Orly qui était installée sur les ascenseurs Otis Prelexan, mais il s'agit seulement des portes à deux vantaux et à ouverture centrale

[@psirvent8]

I did actually manage to make a U key from a steel tube that I bought at a hardware store. It took quite a bit of adjustment to get it to fit through the U shaped hole of the lift but it finally works. BTW "french" U keys are different than UK U keys. The fun thing is that in France, only some Otis doors have U keys. (They're literally called "Orly doors" by the way).

[@pierreuntel1970]

O really?

[@psirvent8]

Yeah ! (I'm a lift surfer too !)

[@Mattyeah101]

Mild steel would have probably been a better choice for the tube you made the key out of - aluminum is too soft and liable to break. Seeing as you don't have access to a vice, you would probably have a job cutting it though.

[@lollol6812]

One of my local lifts uses a U key although the hole the key goes in had been smashed up so I was able to stick a literal stick in the hole and open the doors

[@upanddownadventures]

These elevators look like they are vintage, notice how there is only 1 call button on each floor. This means that the controller is probably original.

[@SproutyPottedPlant]

Awwwwwww shame the key bent, hopefully all is not lost!! Maybe there is a way to harden the key?

[@LiftyGamez]

One place in Singapore(Clifford centre) has Otis lifts and they use U key

[@DieselDucy]

I have seen these on ebay. Can they not be sold over there?

[@benolifts]

***** U keys are just hard to get hold off. Nobody is selling them over here.

[@louism1621]

make a key out of another metal like iron or steel aluminium is too soft

[@PrestissimoMasterStation]

That's good

I think it was a full replacement.

[@zrellll]

Ben since you got a real U-KEY, can you come back here and review these lifts? Maybe you can see the other 2 lifts that boarded up in the shaft.

[@benolifts]

I have and they are not really worth filming. The lifts are now replaced

[@benolifts]

yes

[@reececollison5101]

These have now had a lester mod by Pickerings

[@psirvent8]

Did they finally put new lifts at this car park or not ?

[@ARelevators]

I just bought myself a u key off ultimate security devices along with a fow other keys I will need to see if it works on a schindler at my local book store

[@EWPA14]

Some sources may say “Otis shaft door key” because in America, Otis used a “U” shaped key here a lot back in the day.

[@psirvent8]

Steel tube works like a charm !

I was gonna tell you how to get one of these, Schindler here in the US uses "Cresent key" which you can find on ebay.

can you buy a dewhurst lift key

[@LachieVidsTransportVlogs]

Beno will a triangle key work on a eco Disc?

[@benolifts]

It might do, but a crucifix key is better. Also I don't advise anyone to go on top a lift based on what you see in my videos.

[@maximilliansus6487]

@@benolifts do you have an idea to get a crusifix key... I can't seem to find them?

[@ccityplanner1217]

I've seen that quite a lot of places have iưng keys, so called because they look like the calligraphic version of the Hangul letter iưng (goo.gl/x2VwH3). This key has a circle & a line on one side pointing towards the name of the option that has been selected.
