Hello hivers? It is nice being here again. As usual I come here after every day at work to discuss how my day went.

The day started with a little traffic. In Lagos Nigeria, it is quite impossible not to experience any form of traffic when moving out especially when you are traveling out of ikorodu.

Moreover, on a norms traffic is always worst on every Monday morning and Friday evening due to the reason that on Mondays, many people would be going to work while on Fridays, many people would be coming back home for weekends.

So I visited two sites today and they are not for repairs but for maintenance. Maintenance routine on the elevator is not a stressful work at all, so it was something we in a swift.

The first site we went for elevator maintenance is situated at Maryland Nigeria. The type of elevator used there is the popular OTIS elevator manufactured by CFAO company which is probably located in Germany.

So below are pictures taken at the first site of visit.

In the picture below, I am presently in the control room of the elevator

Beside me is the 3phase motor of the elevator

In the picture above, beside me is the elevator control panel.

A closer view, the box above the control panel is called the inspection box

The second site I visited was also not really far from Maryland. If you are to walk there I probably guess it would take only 30-45mins to walk from the first site.

The site has two lifts in the building and is also making use of the Otis elevator but not as old as the previous one.

Below are pictures taken in the second site.

A picture beside the control panel of the lift. You can see this lift has a smaller control panel size compared to site 1

The picture below is the shaft of the elevator. In the shaft, you can see the motor, guide rails, elevator car.

After completing the maintenance of the elevator, we went straight to our office which is located at Sabo Yaba Lagos Nigeria.

That's all for now, see you tomorrow.
