This is a nice elevator

I was at IKEA in Merriam, KS and those elevators ran fine. Those are Schindler with square innovation just like this one. They were very huge and they have the two speed center opening doors. On this one, it is better going down.

That is an MEI indicator

I believe it is an MEI

Yes. I wasn't aware of it at that time.

I rode on the IKEA Elevators in Frisco TX When I rode the first elevator, it was pretty nice, it had to very nice motor, but not too great when the elevator door opens, the elevator panel was on the left and the elevator does have a bump going up. When I rode the other elevator, that elevator was not that great, the elevator door was twice as bad as the other elevator, the only change is that the button for two says 2R on the button. The black part said two. The elevator panel was on the right, when the elevator levels, it bumps. it had two doors. I also rode on the Arizona IKEA Elevators, that Store had 3 Elevators. There was no parking elevators, All the elevators were big. Sometimes the elevator broke. Only 1 Elevator there has a rear door. The other two don't have it. But all of the them have very nice motors. The elevator there don't jolt or bump very hard, but the ones in Texas I rode on were not so good. One of the elevators there was pretty nice. The other bumps. And Yes, they are Schindler Elevators, too

Last night I went there and filmed the elevator. It was running fine. Idk why it was death trap, it was just a jolt.

[@JimLiElevators]

Now that I remember correctly. I think usually it jolts pretty hard when it first starts moving is mainly because the elevator car has been sitting idle for super long which makes the pump dry if the elevator hasn’t been used at all.

Geez. This is huge. Ikea should've put 2 speed doors. BTW, what was the capacity? 8100 LBS?

[@elevatorsinrussia2597]

The indicators and chimes are manufactured by Minnesota Elevator.
