    Wait what? Are there actually elevators “programmed” this way‽ (can this behavior even be changed in the controller?)

    Because I have never “tested” this behavior per se (I mean you mostly want your elevator to move anyway so you ideally remove the obstruction the first time it didn’t fully close…)

      I’ve seen cases where it takes some time to the group of people in the elevator to figure out the obstruction. Because it won’t even touch the object, just reopen again and again.

      So no, elevators don’t do that, and I assume the parent comment is sarcastic.
