Thanks for sharing this with us. Makes me realise how much I miss good old Debenhams. It's sad to see it empty.

Nice video mate 👍🏻

Try to do a learning run on the KONE lift to see if it will accept the top floor

Honestly, some of those pics deserve to go on r/Liminalspace :P

Keep up the good work ❤

It's a shame the lift thinks that the 4th floor is invisible lol 😛

That's cool vid, miss going there.

Superb. That's weird how it's been left like that. Hopefully it will reopen as a store with as much kept original as possible. Could the glitchy relay logic lift just be dirty contacts? I was thinking you could fix the floor indicator, and was wondering if you would. Great use of the radios.

Currently Litchfield one is being turned into a cinema, but I haven’t heard stuff for ages. Went past yesterday notice from the council says planning permission is accepted so hopefully it gets done soon

Can't believe you didn't try to start the generator

2:04 that's a very old fire alarm panel

Ahhh the place where you did escelator surfing right?

3:02 the bell sounds like the bridgnorth cliff railway bell a bit

8:07 have you ever got an escalator fire shutter to work? I’ve never seen one on action.

Getting backrooms vibes, spooky.

The irony of fire doors being blocked open with fire extinguishers.

That's actually NOT what irony is. Irony would be if somehow the fire doors started a fire when their purpose is to stop fire from spreading. Being blocked open with a fire extiguisher isn't irony. The door will still stop the movement of fire if left to its own devices and the extiguisher will still put out a fire regardless of the position of the door. Niether of the devices have an opposite unintended consequence. I fully appreciate that the English language LACKS a proper word for what this is and irony is CLOSE to it (easily confusable).

Never shipped there, But used to pass through the building as a quick way to get to the high street if I was using the parking space behind. Then again though this was only if I was popping down to get some stuff for my vaping needs as there is a store pretty much opposite. Debenhams was way too expensive. Makes me wonder what they could possibly use that building for now going forward?

Probably a charity shop

Shame to see it all empty I wonder what became of the staff who once worked there thinking they had a secure job with Debenhams being looked upon as a good firm to work for , but nowadays all company's seem to become impersonal and autonomous cooperate mentality. I wonder how the escalators and lights are all on ,some one must be around checking the security of the building sometime and it seems quite risky to have fire doors kept open in an empty building.

1:07 --> Ground floor 4:56 --> First floor 8:18 --> Second floor 10:49 --> Third floor (Staff only) 18:44 --> Fourth floor (Plant room)

Debenhams will always never be forgotten. Same with other department stores that closed including BHS but Marks & Spencer is still trading.

This has to be a new Backrooms level, the "Abandoned Debenhams"!

Is there not more than one passenger lift?

No 😂 it was all escalators and a very long and winding walk from street level to use the toilets at the top. I always used them back when it was alldars because it was plush in there in the 80s.

13:50 it’s an ecodisc lift
