I don't know how tall they are, but I know their width is a little less than 11 standard units in 3ds max9.

model in metric to scale.. that is one unit equals 10cm for example....and then make doorways 1meter wide by 2 meters high to scale and it will feel right..

always oversize stuff a bit...in real life we navigate pretty narrow spaces but in games its standard to oversize..

always model to scale....preferably in metric..

To add to IronTaxi if your units are set to Feet or inches when you export out of 3dsmax your objects will be HUGE or really tiny. If your not comfortably modeling in Metric make sure to change your units before you export. But seeing as the game is based around metrics nows a good time to learn. I'm having the same learning pains as I grew up using Imperial units.
