About this asset

Designed for parametric door assemblies, this 2D door swing Revit family features an adjustable plan swing angle with dynamic arc and leaf linework. This 2D nested component provides clean plan representation for interior and exterior architectural doors. The geometry consists of symbolic linework representing the door panel leaf and swing trajectory arc, constrained to reference lines that pivot around a fixed hinge insertion point. Plan dimensions track the host frame width, leaf thickness, and opening clear width with equal spacing constraints. By separating the symbolic plan linework from heavy 3D geometry, the asset maintains crisp vector output across floor plans while supporting variable opening positions without distorting standard drafting graphics or wall junction trims.

The download is a 256 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.

BIM coordinators and technicians load this family directly into parent door families as a shared or nested generic annotation or door subcomponent. In the family editor, users map the swing angle parameter to an instance or type parameter, alongside leaf width and thickness dimensions. This setup allows independent angle control in project views without regenerating 3D solid geometry, keeping model performance optimized during large-scale floor plan drafting.

Architectural teams utilize this nested detail across commercial workplace schemes, healthcare layouts, residential floor plans, and hospitality fit-outs where door clearance zones require precise plan depiction. The adjustable swing angle clarifies egress pathways, furniture clearances, and accessibility sweeps at varied opening percentages such as 30, 45, or 90 degrees. Commonly paired with standard hinged frames, flush timber leaves, and hollow metal doors, it provides consistent documentation for architectural submittals and permit sets.
