Many venders leave the doors in that position so they don't have to get the key, now you have learned a dirty secret that may get you into more of these equipment rooms. Always chalk the door open with a pocket lighter because the locks are sometimes double sided requiring a key to get back in if you exit the roof door, it's no fun being stuck on the roof. (commercial fire alarm and card access tech)
I got so much stuff to say, first of all, sucks that machine room door was a witch. Next, I HAVE NEVER HEARD A KONE M SERIES CHIME THAT HIGH BEFORE (the main rainbow elevators of course.) And finally, that motor for the service elevator is spiced up
Thanks, but just a shame I didn't get beyond the doorway GRRRR! This was a while ago now, was hoping to go back but never did. Wonder if these lifts are still here
In the Netherlands in an old shopping center, there are 2 old lifts like these. 1 is a really old kone with 3 the same button panels! And the other one has been recently shut off, it was an really old kone goods lift. The buttons were replaced with the same kone buttons but that lift was epic. That whole installation is epic because there are lights under the lift which creates an interesting effect
when i saw this video i thought the title said "Why is MatPat so ANGRY blah-blah-blah", but once the title was enlarged i was like oh wait a moment. lol--
It would be quite interesting to see what happened to these lifts now. Maybe they left the motor room open this time. Maybe they are still original. Would be an really interesting vid.
Sounds like a ventilation system at around 01:38! I wonder what the machinery would have been like, they had obviously spent some money on the lift cars themselves.
If only I had the chance to look, well....actually I DID, but not after the door slammed shut!! I should have gone walk about AFTER I'd dumped my bag in the room, but nope!! This is what happens when you're really tired after travelling for most of the day - silly mistake from not thinking!
+SteinerFarm “harry” I would have liked to get stuck in the motor room (with a camera of course lol).. Nah, I didn't even make it in the door - I could have done but I should have dumped my bags in my room first and then gone exploring. I went up here with my suitcase with me meaning that I had too much with me. I had planned to take my bag back to my room and come back, but then let the door slam shut and this time it locked!!!! GRRRRRR!
Well never mind ,some you win and some you lose,just be pleased with what you have achieved so far.your vids are fantastic as it is,and you never know the next one will be an even more epic one.
I was tired from travelling, I had my suitcase and laptop bag all with me and I wasn't thinking!! I should have dropped it back at the room, then gone exploring! HOWEVER, I think the failed trip is attracting more views that if i'd entered lol :)
Yes, it was a bit of an eye catcher. These are quite noisy lifts and when I found the motor room door I pushed it, it OPENED!!! Then I kind of panicked a little as I had my suitcase blocking open the door to the stairwell and wasn't prepared to enter and I let the door slam shut - this time it locked!!! Could have been so much better this video :(
I did try every day I was there, too late!!! The rare instance that it was unlocked was ruined by me! I would love to go back there and try again, but not been there since.
At least you didn't look yourself in the motor room. This could end very bad very quickly. Poor reception on the cellphone, no phone in the motor room...
good idea, but too late. I wasn't happy as " wanted to see this motor room, sounds like an old one and perhaps the lifts were updated in the 1990s? Was in for a treat, or WAS in for a treat. Rare to get into motor rooms like this, and it was all lined up for me to check it out. Stupid moment of being tired and not thinking about what i was doing.
It’s dangerous to leave a door to the motor room(machine room) unlocked as unauthorized people can get in and they can die from touching anything they don’t know
If an elevator breaks due to pushing the buttons meant for the users to push, change your elevator company and buy an elevator that is actually designed to function properly.
I stopped filming as i thought getting to the top of the steps was it - i checked door and was surprised it was unlocked. Then I stepped back to continue filming the door opening, but let it slam shut. Should not have hesitated and gone straight in but wasn't thinking straight
Coolkeys2009 Wow thanks :) I like comments like these coz it makes me want to make more! I've got another one coming soon, well it's going to be sort of a quiz. It came about from watching an old TV series - 56 episodes I had to watch!! But that's the only clue ;)
mrmattandmrchay I Love Your Video's I Hate Elevator's Myself. I Avoid Them Just In Case They Get Stuck. But It's Nice To See Someone Who Dosen't Mind Getting Stuck
+Teddy L Boulden I answer this question quite frequently and I realise that watching a lift video isn't everyone's cup of tea. However there are many subjects on youtube and people all over the world have unusual interests. Mine is old lift machinery.I'm hoping that you can come around to my side of thinking with these links... ruclips.net/video/PnTgwEOU_H8/видео.html ruclips.net/video/Bc2F9DfDAiQ/видео.html It amazes me sometimes... you name it, SOMEONE SOMEWHERE is interested in it. One that surprised me is washing machines....!!!? Yep, there are channels all about washing machines also!
Okay. That's a great answer. I do elevators because I manage property. I have to deal with the old technology all the time. There's some nostalgia with the old tech, but it's mostly work for me.
brianbirc Bullshit. I'm not puffing myself up. I don't repair or maintain the elevator equipment. I don't touch the equipment to repair it, but I advise the board of directors about the care of all elements of the building. That means I do cursory inspections of the equipment rooms. I'm also present for the annual inspections and some repairs. Our elevator inspector instructs me on what repairs need to be made showing me the problems when he can. That way I know what repairs need to be made to our equipment so I can be sure our elevator company is doing their job. I also have to document the issues, explain them to the board and get bids for expensive repairs. I've worked with many elevator companies, got many bids and have hired and fired many contractors. No one has chased me away from or told me that I couldn't enter any of the equipment rooms. This is a part of my job. The idea that I hire an elevator company and push them into some secret room that I can't enter is crazy. If I didn't work with my elevator company and our annual inspector, I wouldn't be doing my job.
At 1:07 the elevator is all like "hey let me close!" xD
Yes this must be a spekynk elevator ded he says it but funny word
Bbbbb

color changing LED makes that lift fun. how bright is it in person?

+ClusterCracker you mean chock not chalk.
Very noisy ride, but is very awesome colour changing LED lights. All lifts the brand is KONE M Series.
If I'd filmed the motor room then it would have been so much better video :/
+mrmattandmrchay But the lift motor room is locked and doesn't have a key card in the box to unlocking the lift motor room doors.

4:27 - One of my favorite chimes.
Best damn KONE elevator I've seen on RUclips !! :P can't stop watching !
Cool thanks, but would have been better if I'd entered the motor room when I had the chance :/ GRRRR!
Your channel is very uplifting!
Interesting how the lights change color in the elevator that is really neat
when i saw this video i thought the title said "Why is MatPat so ANGRY blah-blah-blah", but once the title was enlarged i was like oh wait a moment. lol--

Yep, but unfortunately I never went back to this hotel :(
@@mrmattandmrchay Are you planning to go back at some stage?
Love the lighting effect! Shame I always (not necessarily regarding lifts) in missed opps as well. Story of my life!
Very Nice K|O|N|E M-Series. Plus I Really Like The Color-Changing Lights.
Love that kone chime on the service elevator
Another lift with RGB lighting, not just the modded Old Otis lifts at some hotel in Heathrow. Also where are these, in the UK?
Sounds like a ventilation system at around 01:38! I wonder what the machinery would have been like, they had obviously spent some money on the lift cars themselves.

THIS IS THE BEST LIFT INSTALITON
IS SO BEATIFUL
Oh shit, it is cool how the lighting changes. But why did u force it into nudge in the beginning?
Do the lifts still exist ?
Awesome walls!
I also love the sound of the mechanics of an elevator.
Where is it located ???
This is the best KONE installation
IS NOT EVEN GENERIC:)
Very fast and efficient!
0:29 I do like the lighting in that one Im not sure if the other ones have it but whatever
I like the chimes on the passenger lifts :)
so did you get stuck inside the motor room or was it locked?
+SteinerFarm “harry” I would have liked to get stuck in the motor room (with a camera of course lol).. Nah, I didn't even make it in the door - I could have done but I should have dumped my bags in my room first and then gone exploring.

GRRRRRR!
At least they care for others safety to put cameras in your country. I assume most have a camera these days depending on which town we live.
TheElectricnoob in the uk mist cameras are real, and all modern lifts have alarms on the motor rooms
very nice lift !!!
good that the first door was unlocked. walking up the motor room steps was a good idea.
Bad luck, mate, planning to visit back there soon?
+D Mack I'd like the opportunity of trying again but not been there since and this was a good few years ago now
mrmattandmrchay Yeah, good point,watching different elevator video now, ironically...

You know what that means- you'll just have to go back!

Sorry but did anyone else find Mr Matt's little strop quite humorous

6:16 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It was in France ?
Belgium. The signs on the motor room door are written in both Dutch and French.
This is a late comment but may I ask what is the name of this building?
This was so long ago that i cannot remember. I believe this was brussels but sorry i dont remember.
@@mrmattandmrchay Ahh I see
It has a high pitched lantern chime, I never heard a high pitched chime before
What is that place
Also rare because it has a high pitch chime
Usually it is much lower
I would be pissed off too when that happens. Always try to peg a door with a piece of wood or matchbox
I was tired from travelling, I had my suitcase and laptop bag all with me and I wasn't thinking!! I should have dropped it back at the room, then gone exploring! HOWEVER, I think the failed trip is attracting more views that if i'd entered lol :)
mrmattandmrchay
Brilliant !! View 19935
+RODALCO200
Where is it ??
Cant remember exactly. Think it was Amsterdam (sorry that doesnt help much!) ...was a long time ago!
You could consider yourself lucky. Maybe the motor room was alarmed or a CCTV camera would have got you in there.
4:05
that lighting looks cool
Yes, it was a bit of an eye catcher. These are quite noisy lifts and when I found the motor room door I pushed it, it OPENED!!!

This is such an awesome lift
It is one of a kind :)
mrmattandmrchay This weekend I rode a high speed lift in Atlantic City which i think you'd like a lot :)
So you work there?
that service lift had a schindler m series chime
Kone M Series actually - you were close
Hmm.... i read Dutch texts on lift door. You are in the Netherlands?
I did this at the ATL Marriot Marques and I pushed the door closed. ):
Oh man. Could be somebody had only recently been in there.
well thats a bummer if i ever had to face that i'd just try another time
I did try every day I was there, too late!!! The rare instance that it was unlocked was ruined by me! I would love to go back there and try again, but not been there since.
did you fil it when it were original? (not modded) if you did, pls send me the URL :)
This is in Belgium I think - only went there once, no plans to go again :(
he got angry cause his room door was open. LoL.
1:25 Nudge mode!
Maybe one day you might get to see this motor room. :)
WHY ARE YOU SO ANGRY
this lift is so coooool
a motor room video would have been better GRRRR! :)
And the answer?
"because he was tired and let the door secure itself before he got to trespass."
So boring.
Elevator playgames
Omar Smith is
Omar Smith oo
Omar Smith You're a cheebay
The service lift motor has a nice mototr
Omg my eyes i need glasses
At least you didn't look yourself in the motor room. This could end very bad very quickly. Poor reception on the cellphone, no phone in the motor room...
It Looks Very Mad Traction Or Hydraulic
Service Lifts are sooo bad, but it was good here, somehow :D
I don't like getting stuck in the lifts
GRRRR AAAAAAHHH!!! IM SO ANGRY
hi
This is a Kone elevator. Its motor was in grey.
I bet you were very pissed off. Where were these lifts?
I think you jumped at 02:52!
gutteboy o
Or just readjusting the camera.
IS THE BEST LIFT OF THE WORLD
I don’t get o?🤔
The service lift mechanics sounds like children screaming on a roller coaster.
very good
+Isaac Allton thanks
+Isaac Allton thanks
The service elevator sounds like my blow dryer
The expletives need farmyard animal sounds ;P

Rare to get into motor rooms like this, and it was all lined up for me to check it out. Stupid moment of being tired and not thinking about what i was doing.
The only thing I like that theyve added is the color changing lights
I changed the chime in the rainbow elevators
It’s dangerous to leave a door to the motor room(machine room) unlocked as unauthorized people can get in and they can die from touching anything they don’t know
hahaha that M Series chime at a different pitch sounds better
I agree, never heard it like this before but it's better (or at least, different)
well its different and better but the original one will always be a favourite to others but this improved one is fun (sounds like more effort in it)
I thought he'd trapped himself inside
I like this elevator, that more 3x speed
Nice KONE M series lifts.
Theese are KONE-M, right?? :D
+Pankos Dankos yup I believe so :)
I thought that you would be angry because it was replaced
Joes LiftChannel It was always going to happen, just glad I filmed it in it's original state. This place is now crossed off my 'revisit' list!
Wierd behavior with the doors they sometimes dont reopen if you hit the bumpers
Why are you playing with the elevators?! You'll break them!
If an elevator breaks due to pushing the buttons meant for the users to push, change your elevator company and buy an elevator that is actually designed to function properly.
Jaakko Fagerlund Agreed!
And no, I'm not an elevator tech or work for an elevator company, but smile everytime I see an elevator made by KONE ;) Probably a Finnish thing...
+Jaakko Fagerlund Yes Kone is a Finnish company.
RGB Lift!
I miss your old intro :(
In american we call them elevators because they will elevate you. why do you call them lifts?
Cause they LIFT . Nothing runs like a Traine lol
Robert Beaulieu lol makes sense! Both valid arguments
Well said...
Because they lift you up but not down xD
We call them lifts because they give you a lift up to your floor?
This is my job. Why the fuck am I watching this?!
Hello, two year old comment. Anyway, I assume you enjoy elevators and the sounds this broadcaster makes? He's so calm.
The answer is you let the door close
Ding doing!
Why Are You Angry Because You Missed The Chance To Get Into The Motor Room And The Broadmoor Sirens Are Gone LOL
Let me guess you wanted to film opening the door and walking into to motor room.
I stopped filming as i thought getting to the top of the steps was it - i checked door and was surprised it was unlocked. Then I stepped back to continue filming the door opening, but let it slam shut. Should not have hesitated and gone straight in but wasn't thinking straight
