About this asset

Designed for commercial entrances, this overhead door closer Revit family provides an accurate scissor-arm mechanism model in grey metallic finish. The assembly consists of a compact cylindrical-profile hydraulic body with an integrated mounting bracket, spindle hub, and an articulated scissor arm. Formed in uniform grey metal, the casing features rounded chamfers along its length and standard end caps. The articulated arm comprises a primary lever and secondary adjustable rod linked by a pivot hinge, designed to attach to the door frame or leaf. Fine physical detailing captures mechanical connection points, retaining bolts, and the pivot collar, giving accurate volumetric representation for technical door schedules and interior clearance checks.

The download is a 1.3 MB 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 RFA component directly into your Revit project or nest it inside parent door families to standardise ironmongery across door types. Place the unit onto the top rail or transom of your door assembly, aligning mounting brackets with the door leaf and frame face. Visibility graphic settings allow the geometry to be displayed in detailed 3D views while remaining clean in general coordination views.

Ideal for specification across commercial office developments, educational facilities, healthcare institutions, and multi-residential egress corridors. The closer suits fire doors, utility entrances, and public access portals requiring controlled closing actions. Specifiers and BIM coordinators searching for overhead door hardware, surface-mounted closers, or ironmongery components can pair this element with commercial timber or metal leaf doors, exit devices, and architectural frame assemblies across detail design and technical documentation stages.
