The transfer area is not at the door itself, instead it's a fair bit infront of the door (also infront of staircase, etc)... it's a little weird since the entrance should be at the door; also it blocks you from moving forward for the length of about a door so if you go around it and go to the real door, there's no entrance on interact.
to clarify, this is the door closest to the bridge.
...er
edit: once I opened the door, the door and all were in the right place again, maybe this is a situational bug and it only happened once? hm
