About this asset

Walk-through metal detector security portal modelled as a Revit family featuring twin detection side panels and an integrated clearance base. The model depicts a standard walkthrough inspection archway designed for security checkpoints. It comprises two vertical pillar panels housing sensor arrays, capped by an upper transverse control header with recessed side margins. The assembly is positioned over a low-profile rectangular floor base that mimics a demarcated inspection zone or mounting plinth. The geometry maintains clean rectangular profiles without decorative trim, providing an accurate spatial envelope for access gates, passenger flow studies, and clearance coordination in technical floor plans and three-dimensional section diagrams.

The download is a 184 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.

As a native Revit specialty equipment family, this component inserts directly into plan or ceiling coordinated views. Users can align the unit against security queuing corridors, calibrate hosting offsets, and assign bespoke material finishes to match facility hardware specifications. The lightweight geometry ensures minimal impact on model performance during multi-unit terminal layouts and detailed life safety coordination checks.

Engineered for municipal, transportation, and institutional projects, this security archway is suited for airport terminal concourses, courthouse entrances, correctional facilities, and corporate reception lobbies. It pairs naturally with baggage x-ray conveyor machines, turnstiles, and security desk consoles during schematic design and design development. Specifiers searching for walk-through metal detector families, security portals, and access control equipment can integrate this unit to establish accurate circulation widths and checkpoint clearances.
