Featuring five folding glazed leafs within an outer frame, this modern external bi-fold door Revit family models wide patio openings for architectural schemes. Constructed as a wide multi-leaf aperture system, the assembly comprises five glazed folding panels set inside a continuous perimeter frame. Each panel features slender stiles and rails enclosing a full-height glass lite, accented with discreet surface hardware and handle latches between adjacent folding pairs. The leaves stack accordion-style along the upper track and flush threshold, illustrating a partially accordion-folded open position that reveals the clear wall opening. Clean line geometry defines the hinges, meeting stiles, and sill profiles, accurately communicating the mechanical layout of contemporary residential and light commercial exterior folding assemblies.
The download is a 2.1 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.
Designed for wall-hosted insertion in Revit, this door family automatically cuts host geometry upon placement into exterior wall types. Users can assign glass, frame, and hardware finishes through standard family type parameters to match project specifications. The clean linework ensures crisp representation in coarse, medium, or fine detail levels across floor plans, elevations, and 3D coordination models.
This folding glass screen serves residential terraces, kitchen-diner extensions, garden pavilions, and hospitality venues such as outdoor restaurant seating and boutique hotel balconies. It pairs naturally with timber decking, level-threshold stone paving, and expansive open-plan living areas. Architects specify this component when searching for bi-fold doors, folding patio systems, panoramic glazed walls, and multi-leaf exterior sliding doors in residential planning and detailing packages.
