Custom parametric Revit families for swing and sliding doors, featuring detailed frames, panels, hardware connections, and flexible dimensional configurations.

Doors family creation
📍 India ◷ 4 week ♙ 1 Engineer ▣ AEC
Project Overview

The project focused on creating detailed and fully parametric Revit families for swing and sliding door systems. The families included individual components such as frames, panels, handles and associated hardware, with adjustable dimensions to support different door configurations and accurate BIM representation.

The Challenge

What Made This Project Complex

The main challenge was developing fully parametric door families while maintaining detailed product geometry. Particular attention was required to model frame profiles, frame-to-panel connections, handle positioning and hardware details. Ensuring that all components adjusted correctly when door dimensions changed was another key technical requirement.

01 Parametric Door Family Development: Creating fully parametric door families with adjustable dimensions while preserving accurate product geometry.
02 Detailed Component Modeling: Modeling frame profiles, frame-to-panel connections, handle positioning, and hardware details with precision.
03 Parametric Functionality & Accuracy: Ensuring all door components adjusted correctly with dimensional changes while maintaining geometric consistency and design accuracy.
Our Approach

How Milestone PLM delivered

We developed fully parametric Revit door families by integrating detailed 2D geometries of individual components, including frame profiles, door panels, handles and hardware. Parametric constraints and dimensional relationships were established to ensure that all components maintained their accurate positioning, connections and detailing when door dimensions and configurations were modified. This resulted in detailed, flexible and BIM-ready families for swing and sliding door systems.

Key Deliverables
  • Fully Parametric Swing & Sliding Door Families
  • Detailed 3D Frame, Panel & Hardware Modelling
  • Accurate Connection Detailing in the family
  • Flexible Dimensional Parameters & Configurations
