Door Properties

Doors are defined by their width, height, elevation, and trim size. You can edit the properties before you draw or after the component has been added to your design by selecting the door and then clicking the Properties tab in the right sidebar.

Note : Always press the Return key to accept new values in a text field.

Door pop-up menu allows you to switch between the Doors properties and the Door Hardware properties. When Doors is selected, its styles and properties appear.

Door Styles provides access to a variety of door styles.

Note : When choosing a door style for subsequent doors, be sure none of the doors in your design are selected. Otherwise the new style and properties are applied to the selection.

Width defines the distance from one side of the door opening to the other. You can change the width by typing a value or by dragging an end point on the door to the width you want.

Height defines the distance from the bottom of the door opening to the top.

Elevation defines the distance between the auto floor elevation and the bottom of the door.

Trim defines the width of the trim around the door. This is not included in the overall height.

Double Door checkbox allows you to convert the selected door to a double door. The existing properties stay the same so you may want to edit the width to create two full-sized doors. This is not available for curved door, sliding door, or garage door styles.

Mount pop-up menu allows you to choose if the door is positioned in the center of the door casing or is positioned flush to the side where the hinges are positioned.

Angle defines the angle the door (or doors) is opened (0 closes the door).

Flip Hinge Side button flips the side of the door that the door hinge is on.

Flip Swing Side button controls if the door swings inward or outward.

Door Hardware pop-up menu allows you to switch between the Doors properties and the Door Hardware properties. When Door Hardware is selected, its properties and libraries appear.

Horizontal Offset defines the horizontal position of the hardware relative to the hinges.

Vertical Offset defines the vertical position of the hardware relative to the bottom of the door.

Libraries are available for Door Knobs and Handles and Bars. When you select a style in the Preview Bar, the hardware is applied to the selected door.

Each library includes a Remove Hardware style which, when selected, removes the hardware from the selected door.
