SUPER RARE Amtech Hydraulic Elevator - NC Arboretum Education Center (Asheville, NC)

So, finding an Amtech in NC was not on my bingo card...

What I thought was a US Install ended up being something different entirely. Safe to say this is the first Amtech Reliable elevator I have ever filmed! It's pretty much similar to United States (US) Elevators, in fact, the call buttons on the main floor is US, but with some slight changes. The Amtech Circle Buttons are flatter and have different fonts, but press in the same way as US Circle. The only thing that is really different are the Directional Lanterns. This is a really cool find altogether! This seems to be installed by Asheville Elevators.
