  Hello people, this is my 1st post here. Please enlighten me.
  
  I live in a HDB somewhere in the east side of Singapore. 20% of the chance before i could press the lift button, the lift door would open itself. Sometimes when i am just 2 meters away from the lift door, it would just open. I don't think there is any sensor as my HDB is old. So does this happen to any of you too?

  It's the way the lift is programmed. For example, a lift comes down from let's say nTh floor. 

  It will reach floor one and open it's doors. 

  or,

  when both lifts are on the first floor, someone on the 5th floor press 5, one lift goes up the other opens the door.
