A method of monitoring a door of an elevator car within an elevator system including: detecting a first plurality of accelerations along an X-axis of the elevator system during a first time period; detecting a second plurality of accelerations along a Y-axis of the elevator system during the first time period; determining an absolute value of the first plurality of accelerations; determining an absolute value of the second plurality of accelerations; determining a first summation of the absolute value of the first plurality of accelerations and the absolute value of the second plurality of accelerations; and determining whether the door of the elevator car is in motion during the first time period by determining whether a maximum value of the first summation is greater than a threshold value.
