What's That Little Round Hole in the Elevator Door?

The next time you're waiting for an elevator, see if you can spot a small hole in the elevator door. In case you are wondering what it's for, it's a keyhole. And with the right key, it opens—whether the elevator is there or not.

Why would you want to open the door when there’s no elevator there? Maintenance, an elevator inspection—or to rescue someone from an elevator that’s stuck between floors.

Where are these keys kept? Some fire crews may carry them, and elevator technicians will bring them when they’re called out. But there are usually keys located on the building premises.
