I take these doors don't have the safety lip to drag the door closed(if it becomes loose)? If so then shouldn't the slow speed door have its own landing door electrical lock to stop the lift moving?
The article stated that a massive force led to the door opening.

One elevator door was pushed open with such force that the door came off its bottom tracks and was bent inward into the shaft, the department said.
"A force in excess of 225 foot pounds was applied to the bottom section of the door, so the door actually swung into the shaft like a pendulum," said Massachusetts Public Safety Commissioner Thomas Gatzunis said.
The door was pushed open with more force than one person would be able to generate, the department said, referring all other questions about who might have done it to the Boston Police Department.
"It's more than someone kicking something," Gatzunis said. "The average person cannot achieve that kind of force with a kick."
