Cold room wall panels with door

[nikitesh95]

hello,

I am working on a project where some room are isolated using Insulated wall panels (like cold room panels), panels are of fixed width 1200mm, i tried creating this with curtain wall, panels were created but i cannot place door on that. please suggest method of creating long stretch wall with 1200mm panel(fixed distance), having freedom to place any door on it (double/single) non curtain door.

i hereby attach screeshot of a small section of  my project workplan.

Hey, 

You should be able to add Doors to your Curtain Wall.

The doors you can add are different from the ones you normally use on other walls.

You can see step by step how to do it. In the case you have tried the same procedure, could you please share the error or warning that Revit returns?

Kind regards.

I would do in this way.

I would prepare a Panel of 1200mm as Wall family. Then Disallow join for both ends.

FInally Array the panel for 1200mm distance.

In this way you can manage the panels as one wall.

EDIT

If you have a door between the panels with Array you are going to have issue.

Another idea woudl be play with Cut Patters and Surface Patterns

Select the Panel at the Door Location , Unpin it,  and replace it with a Basic Wall Type from the Type Selector Dropdown in the Properties Pallet. Now you can Host a Regular Door to that Panel. Resize the "Basic Wall" Panel by moving the Curtain Wall  Grids.  Delete Mullion at Door Threshold.

I duplicated Insulation wall and changed its properties to Insulation material. added some foreground and background Patterns. Placed them and did Array. But still doors cannot be placed. I dont want to use Curtain wall command, that is to slow and time consuming process. I want to do it in regular wall command. Please help me find solution

For this solution you do not need Curtain wall.

1-You can use array but have issue if the opening in overlapping the wall

2-You can use wall family + copy. In this way you can apply a door overlapping and join the wall (Mind to use different material to see the joining line)
