Elevator Discussion / Re: Which elevator company do you like the most?

I choose Otis because Otis.

In other words, efficient power system (gen 2), and iconic fixture sets [most notably the Series 1 although they had a line of other good fixtures as well]. Also, they are the first to pioneer the “Safety Elevator” invention.

The Otis Series 1 fixtures are nice, but there are even nicer fixtures.

In my opinion, Schindler is the best. They have the most efficient controller (miconic).

I maintain a private database which documents each time I've been trapped in a lift (or nearly trapped), for the duration of each occurrence (in minutes:seconds), which floor I was trapped on/between, make/model/fixture line of lift, location & date. In my database I currently have 41 incidents logged, since 2005 when I got trapped in my first one, which was in October 2005. 5 of the 41 were actual entrapments.

How long was your longest entrapment?

I've been stuck in an elevator once, but luckily not for long. The elevator stopped between the 3.rd and the 4.rd floor, the floor indicator went out. After 10 seconds it moved to the 3.rd floor. After 30 seconds it went to the floor -1. The elevator was built by Haushahn in 1988.

Lucky! I get stuck all the time. The worst one happened fairly recently, I was stuck for around an hour before anyone came to help. Just kinda sat down, pulled out my laptop and posted a few stuff on here :D

How old are the elevators in which you often get stuck?

Usually around 2007 approximately, not very old, not very new. I can get stuck in completely new elevators too, though (knowing my luck :D)

Do you often get stuck in generics?
