This is the sencond time those elevators are getting modded. The originals were installed by Miami Elevator in 1990 and had black cabs with Impulse buttons. You will notice at 0:35, they retained their original Miami Elevator door sill on the shaft door.

At 0:30 you can see a blue-painted car frame, which is probably left over from the original install. Dover elevator painted everything blue on their installs. And yes, the door sill does look like Dover. Miami elevator used to be a distributor of Dover products in Florida, so it's likely they had nothing to do with this.

@@UncommonElevators I've seen Miamis in MD before, and Dovers, and even Generaals. Those three, along with Lagerquist, sound, & H&C weren't just distributors, they were owned by dover's parent company, Dover Coroporation and became ThyssenKrupp the same time as Dover did. The rest were independant license dealers such as Okeefe and Marshall. The main difference with Miami Vs Dover is that Dover had their own controllers, where Miami used SWIFT (Computerized Elevator Controls, corp.), which later because a dover subsidiary. If you wver see a Dover with the Miami logo, you will notice the logic is a bit different. You are right about the blue paint scheme. Dover (and it's related companies) use it. TK is always black. Thyssen-Dover was unpainted.

@@ElyseHorvath well that’s kind of sad. What kind of fixtures were they? If you’re sort of crazy like I am, you could wait until the mod is fully complete and then write to the elevator company? I know people have done that before and actually gotten stuff. The only thing I’m really mad about is that are getting rid of the voice. What was wrong with it! Lol.
