I cant place an elevator in a seemingly suitable spot for no apparent reason.
As you can see, Ive elevators placed that drop down only 1 foundation in length, so that shouldnt be it, yet a few walls higher and it will let me? Ive tried without walls too, with finished walls, different/no foundations. I cant figure out whats actually causing it.
This seems to be a fairly common issue, could be down to a few issues:
Hard to pin-point exactly a reason why from your video, but I don’t think the hatch frame helps.
Could be a support issue? Did you check the block at the bottom (where the lift would land) with the hammer tool and check its support? Might be something weird going on there, it happens sometimes.
Try re-logging (even a hard reboot, while annoying , wouldn’t hurt) and give it another attempt.
Like @Crompox said the hatch was totally unnecessary! I remember having similar issues on ps4 especially on single player. Can you could try one thing please?
The wooden foundation you have on the bottom, build walls and leave the necessary doorframes ofcurce, build them around and then try to put the elevator, maybe this workaround will work, good luck @tobbiusness 
Thanks for replies guys. I tied without the doorframe and it worked. I’ve used hatchframes before and its worked fine so I didnt think they were the problem.
Stability may have also been a culprit at first.
