6 Floors! Very Nice 2002 KONE M Roped Highdraulic Elevator@Aleksis Kiven Katu 24B, Helsinki, FIN

Filmed on 11.06.2020.

This residential building was completed in 1927. The elevator in this staircase was customary made into this residential building, and there is another similar one in staircase A, which has one more floor, seven and still roped hydraulic. For some reason, there probably had been no elevator here before it was added in early 2002 - and the building has as many as seven floors in total! This is definitely one of the tallest hydraulic elevators I have ever seen, at least in Helsinki / Helsingfors.

Also, the doors are customary made, so that they fit into the style of the apartment doors in the staircase. The capacity text outside is in Finnish and Swedish. Only the folding inner doors are unnecessary, but otherwise, it is a very nice and interesting elevator! The elevator in staircase A, which has as many as seven floors and still roped hydraulic (highdraulic) can be seen here (Filmed on 11th June, 2020):    • 7 Floors! Very Nice 2002 KONE M Roped High...  

This type of style in added KONE M roped hydraulic elevators was used between the late 1990s and early 2000s, sometimes with Delta fixtures up until around 2005.
