Elevators
January 2024 Update - One of the two OT elevators is having an issue with the mechanics of its elevator door. As noted in the update below, the door mechanics were not replaced as part of the 2021 modernization project based on the recommendation of Schindler. NOTE - The project was not a total elevator replacement, it was a modernization. (If anywhere along the project timeline anyone communicated it as a total elevator replacement, that was not an accurate representation of the work.)
October 2021 Update - OT completed an elevator modernization project as noted in the 2022 annual meeting minutes. The modernization project was completed in October 2021 and both elevators now have new controllers and new power sources. Numerous other upgrades took place such as making the elevator mechanical room water tight and more energy efficient. NOTE - The individual elevator door motors and door mechanics were not replaced as part of this modernization project because Schindler (our elevator support company) said they had 5 - 7 years of life remaining and thus recommended that they not be replaced as part of this 2021 modernization project.
