Detention Trash Receptacle

This industrial-style detention trash receptacle is a native Revit family featuring a robust, tamper-resistant metal design. Engineered for high-traffic or secure environments, this detention trash receptacle features a cylindrical body and a reinforced, hooded top. The design prioritises durability and safety, with a recessed waste aperture that prevents easy access to the contents while maintaining a clean, minimalist profile. The form is strictly utilitarian, finished in a neutral industrial grey, suggesting a heavy-duty metal construction suitable for rigorous use. Its proportions are compact yet stable, ensuring it remains secure when placed in corridors, holding areas, or institutional spaces where maintenance and asset longevity are primary design concerns.

The download is a 246 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.

In Revit, this family is managed as a standard floor-hosted component. Users can place the object directly onto floor plans or into 3D views, where it will automatically align with the host level. The geometry is clean and lightweight, ensuring minimal impact on project file size. Assign materials via the object's type or instance parameters to match project-specific finish schedules. It is best practice to keep this on a dedicated site furniture or interior equipment workset to maintain clear visibility control during documentation.
