Inserting Doors

The catalog contains a wide variety of doors for you to insert, including hinged, bi-fold, pocket, sliding glass and garage doors. You can point and click to insert a door anywhere inside a wall, automatically center the door in the wall, or offset the door a specific distance from the end of the wall.

Doors are inserted at floor level. You can raise or lower a door after you have inserted it if you need to.

To insert a door:

1. Make sure the location you want to insert doors on is the current location in the building locations drop box.

2. Select Insert > Doors, or click the Doors button on the Building toolbar.

3. In the catalog, select the door you want to insert.

4. If you want the door to be automatically centered on the wall, right-click and select Center on wall. Go to step 6.

5. If you want to offset the door a specific distance from the end of the wall, right-click and select Enter insertion offset. Enter the offset distance in the Enter insertion offset dialog, then click OK.

6. Position the door in the receiving wall. If you are using an insertion offset, position the door close to the end you want to offset it from. The door will snap inside the wall. Dimensions are displayed that show you the distance on either side of the door.

7. With your door positioned where you want it, click to insert it.

8. Right-click and select Finish.
