An elevator door drive comprising: an elevator door motor; and an elevator door controller comprising at least one button; wherein the elevator door controller is arranged to generate a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) drive signal for driving the elevator door motor; wherein the elevator door controller is arranged to provide an acoustic frequency PWM signal to the elevator door motor responsive to a press of the at least one button. When the elevator door motor is provided with a PWM signal in the acoustic range, the current passing through the motor windings generates forces that result from that current and the magnetic fields in the motor. These forces excite vibrations in the motor components that generate audible noise (which may be referred to as audible magnetic noise or electromagnetic acoustic noise).
