I am only 5'7" (1.7M) tall, and look where the top of the door frame is. :)
These are the Montgomery "Dwarf" Traction Elevators, in the Winsor Building, Worcester, Massachusetts.
Several times, I show you the height difference between my short frame, versus the top of the door, to find an angle that shows how short these are. Apparently, when these were retrofitted in, they didn't want to make a new hole in the roof, so they shortened the cabs, and outer doors to match.
This time around, the right lift actually opened at the Basement (LL) Level, because the other one was broke (Possibly shut off for inspection). I left as the Lobby became a bit too populated.
