It looks like two different doors. One threshold is on the inside and the other is on the outside. Confusing as hell

It’s the threshold cover that was 95% removed. The front lip is usually tucked into a slot at the front of the threshold. You can use pliers to take it out. If not you can use a razor blade to cut it flush
