Shitlered HellExcessed 1983 Dover Hydraulic Elevators at ASU Broyhill Music Center (Boone, NC)

Welcome to Appalachian State University, a college that is a huge ass city and generally impossible to film every elevator here without coming back multiple times. I got a total of 11 elevators during my visit in August while helping a friend move into their dorm.

These were once Dover Traditionally Borings, and then got replaced with a shitty Schindler HXPress Mod. I think these were modded in 2021 and they ALREADY show signs of cheaping out. For one, the indicator on the one I got is glitching out and showing floor numbers impossible with HXPress like 12 and 96. Not only that, these are slower than molasses. These definitely don't run at the speed of 100 FPM like the original Dovers did. What a downgrade.
