Single Door Swing with Adjustable Swing Angle

Designed for architectural documentation, this nested single door swing Revit family features an adjustable plan swing angle controlled by reference lines. The component provides standard two-dimensional plan graphics for single door openings, structured as a nestable family unit. Geometry comprises a radial arc swing path paired with a linear door panel leaf aligned to an angular reference parameter. Built to flex between closed, partially open, and perpendicular orientations, the linework integrates directly into parent door templates. Clean symbolic line work maintains consistent lineweights across floor plan views without adding unnecessary 3D polygon bulk to host door assemblies, keeping overall file sizes lightweight and project documentation clear.

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.

Load the RFA into an existing door family template and lock the insertion origin to host reference planes at the hinge intersection. Link the swing angle parameter to either a family type or instance property to manipulate clearance representation across distinct plan views. Visibility settings can be mapped to fine and medium detail levels, ensuring crisp drafting performance in large multi-level models.

Essential for commercial, residential, and institutional project documentation, adjustable door swings help architects clearly coordinate code-required clearances, accessible approach paths, and furniture conflict studies. Incorporating this component into standard office door libraries allows designers to present open doors in space-planning layouts while maintaining ninety-degree standards on regulatory submission drawings. It pairs cleanly with interior timber flush doors, metal hollow-core assemblies, and external entrance frames across all BIM drawing production phases.
