I think the "Close Door" buttons on elevators are there just to taunt us. I don't think I've ever had the doors respond after pushing one of those buttons, not immediately in the sense that the closing was a result of the button being mashed.
I think the elevator manufacturers can save themselves the trouble, really, of producing the buttons if they don't let them work anyway. Unless of course they watch us on a hidden camera, as we engage in acts of random futility, trying to make the doors close faster...

It's almost enough to make you want to camp out in front of an elevator for a while and watch people jam the buttons. It would be a similar experience to watching people walk face-first into automatic doors that don't open because the shop is closed.

Not that I've ever done that, of course.
