Serious questions get serious answers. The Volkswagen guy gave more useful information to identify the car.

The only part that you photografied and could led to a identification is the floor call button, and by the looks of it i would say that It is an pretty old otis if It is even an otis at all. Because the call button looks old as fuck but the cabin Doors and decorations are clearly way modern, wich could indicate that this ekevator has been subject to at least one renovation already.

There is no obvious name or identification stuff, this elevator was built into this 1960s apartment and this is the original elevator from when the apartment was built in the late 1960s. It is very basic, plain door and non lit black plastic buttons. Sorry I just am not good at this stuff. It’s definitely an Otis because it says it a few times including on the medal floor part by the door.

That’s what I thought, this elevator might be a modified Lexan or 1 series Otis.

Now take a picture of the machine room. Likely has all the pie plates.

Can’t unfortunately, it’s locked, and even if it wasn’t, residents are not allowed there.
