About this asset

This Revit detail component provides a standard section profile for a hollow metal door frame anchor used in wall construction. The component represents a standard hollow metal door frame anchor in a two-dimensional section view. It illustrates the geometric interface between the door frame profile and the adjacent wall construction, highlighting the anchoring connection required for installation. The line work is clean and precise, intended for use in construction documentation sets. It depicts the necessary clearances and the profile shape of the metal frame assembly, ensuring that the critical connection point is accurately represented in building sections and wall details without the overhead of complex three-dimensional geometry.

The download is a 184 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.

Load this detail component into a Revit project and place it directly onto drafting views or section views where a hollow metal door frame connection is required. Because it is a detail component, it is designed for 2D annotation and does not require complex rendering or material mapping. It can be snapped to existing wall lines or reference planes to quickly annotate and clarify construction methods for door frame installations within your project documentation.

This anchor detail is essential for architects and structural engineers documenting door installations in commercial, industrial, or residential projects. It is typically used during the construction documentation phase to clarify the connection between hollow metal frames and various wall systems, such as stud partitions or masonry. Professionals often search for this type of component when detailing door schedules or wall section sheets, as it helps communicate installation standards to contractors and builders, ensuring compliance with standard architectural detailing practices.
