It's a called u key by the way. Great video though!

@Randy Boone If you're talking about using a piece of paper to trip the sensors, then it that's not what I meant. I was talking about the u key to access the shaft. You can't access a shaft with a piece of paper. But still that is cool that you were able to get the doors to open with a piece of paper. Fortunately for me, my school's Dover Impulse can't be locked off.

@Randy Boone What do you mean by springs underneath?

[@NathanCE]

They're officially called moon keys

U key/lunar key

[@Manco-gl9ol]

@@ex5138 yes it’s called a lunar key, for Schindler/Westinghouse elevators

Lol makes a video about opening a elevator door... - doesn’t open said door.

Only use these if the elevator is stuck.

Shut off elevator motor circuit before opening doors.

What do you mean by “time-out?”

[@Billtexan]

Andrew’s Station after around 5 seconds of the door safety strip( the device that stops the door shutting on someone or something) is interrupted the doors automatically open
