They don’t want to deal with pushing the buttons to enter the premises

Why should they have to though? It's not a delivery driver's job to jump through various hoops to gain access to a private residence, and that's not even going into the liability and safety issues that come with it.

Also, why even bother having a door code if you're giving it out to every random delivery driver.

Every single Metropolitan area does this

US defaultism much?

This is absolutely not a thing where I live and it sounds quite entitled to expect this level of personal service from an underpaid and overworked worker who's probably already overbooked and struggling to finish his round on time.

Here a delivery driver will come to the street facing door of a building, and attempt to deliver with you in person, or if you live up high you can buzz him in to put the package in the shared entrance space, but he's not going to go on a lone quest to gain access to every single private multitenant building. You're not home, and haven't given permission to deliver to your neighbors? Tough shit. Come pick up the package at the depot.
