Summary:A method and system for controlling a movable door (120) associated with a passenger compartment (103), the door (120) moveable between an opened position and a closed position configured to provide access to, or egress from, the passenger compartment (120). The method includes monitoring a landing area (119) of the elevator door (120) with at least one sensor (132), and determining a level of urgency of an approaching passenger based on the information from the at least one sensor (132). If the level of urgency exceeds a predetermined threshold, modifying a closing of the elevator door (120) based on the level of urgency. The method may also include modifying a closing speed of the elevator door (120) if the level of urgency exceeds a predetermined threshold.
