The Hotel Lift

You are in a 1940’s hotel with your friends. The bellboy isn’t in today, so you’ll have to carry your own bags. But the lift only fits a few. A few of you get into the lift while the others wait outside. Suddenly, a fire breaks out in the hotel, trapping half your team in the lift! Your teammates outside will have get the lift working if you want to escape. But even if you get the power on and the lift working, it won’t be that easy. All the doors in the lobby are locked and there’s no way out. Can you find a way to open the door before the fire reaches the lower floors?
