About this asset

This Revit family provides a standardised door tag annotation following the NBR 6492 technical drafting guidelines for architectural plans. The NBR 6492 Door Tag is a functional annotation family designed for clear documentation in Revit project files. It features a circular symbol containing the door identifier, paired with an associated dimension text field to display width and height. The graphics are clean and vector-based, ensuring they remain legible across various scales and print settings. This tag is built to automatically extract parameters from door families, allowing for consistent labelling of door schedules and floor plans. Its layout adheres to common technical drawing requirements for clear communication of spatial data.

The download is a 215 KB file containing a Revit family (.rfa). Load it into a project from the Insert tab with Load Family, then place it like any other component of its category; it schedules and tags with the rest of your model.

To implement this tag, load the family into your Revit project and use the tag tool to identify door elements in floor plan views. Ensure the door family parameters are correctly mapped to the label fields within the tag to display information such as door ID and dimensions. The tag is designed to be orientation-aware, maintaining its readability as the project documentation evolves throughout the design process.

This annotation is essential for professional architectural documentation, particularly in projects requiring adherence to Brazilian technical standards. It is suitable for use in residential, commercial, and healthcare developments where clear door scheduling and plan labelling are critical. Professionals typically apply these tags during the construction documentation stage to ensure contractors and site managers can easily identify door types and sizes. It pairs seamlessly with standard door schedules and general arrangement drawings, simplifying the coordination of door specifications across entire building sets.
