Saw these elevators while walking from Westquay back to the cruise terminal via IKEA and I decided to film one. Some large sized Schindler 2600 elevators (my second time after Istanbul Airport) serving the five storey parking garage of Southampton's IKEA store.
Based on Jimwoodward1212's video and the overhead landing indicators, these elevators originally had FI MXV fixtures but sadly they've been recently replaced into Dewhurst which is a pity since I've never even been on a Schindler with full FI MXV. On the bright side, the LOPs have touchless sensors which are part of Dewhurst's Hygiene Plus solutions, and so does the buttons which are US95-AB series with antibacterial technology. Annoyingly these elevators were very busy, and this was worsen by the fact that one elevator wasn't working.
