Same. That said there wasn’t much door motor noise on these (they’d probably had new ones of the original type recently as Kone still maintains them). There were a fair few lifts here - all the others including in the car park (which I’ve uploaded) had Novel elements fixtures in and out. I do miss seeing the rare half height panels like the Castle Mall ones had though!

@@EscalatorsAnywhere they were rare, I wish I was able to get my hands on those but sadly was not able to. I have got a few lift parts though including an Otis push button and keyswitch (with key), dewhurst keyswitch (with key), KONE M series keyswitch (with key) the Kaba type used for car preference on the Castle Mall ones, two otis inspection controls and a MonoSpace cabinet slam lock (with key). I also miss the Drucegrove voice fitted when they changed from numbers to letters in Car Park 1 “Level A, Car Park Level” and “Level J, Shopping Mall, Exit Level” not forgetting the left hand BDFJ lift always getting confused which direction it was going when they fitted the voice. I still remember getting in the left hand odd lift in Car Park 1 on Level 3 and it having a lock failure meaning it flung its doors open and shut multiple times with the classic chime. It gave up after a while and we had to wait ages for the right hand lift.

@@konemseries12 Yeah I remember those lifts and the voices getting confused! Also remember one of the glass lifts getting stuck with its doors continuously opening and closing. Plus the glass ones seemed to go into nudge mode within 5-10 seconds originally! You’d like the lifts in the Prague Zizkov TV tower and some 16 floor ones I found in a hotel in Germany once. I’ll find those videos at some point. 😄

@@EscalatorsAnywhere I managed to get the Car Park 2 Right Hand lift to nudge. I haven’t nudged any lifts in years. The MonoSpace in my former school once did that (the doors were quite dodgy on that after the caretaker used some force on them when trying to rescue some kids who had tripped the governor out by jumping in it). If only the caretaker spotted the triangle key slot.

@@EscalatorsAnywhere the glass lifts now they have been refurbished by TK are not that interesting. They do still feel quite clunky though which is good. Shame a certain person pratted about in them recently with a dewhurst key when he visited Norwich. Same with the left hand MonoSpace in car park 2 putting that on priority to get to the locked floors.
