Curtain Wall Door

I've created a curtain wall door, that stretches and works properly in the family. However when I insert in a project it isn't acting as it should. The centerline is off center and I can't find out what is causing this. Any suggestions?

Try this.

 

This has been covered before.  Several times.  The curtain wall door family template has the Left/Right center reference plane OFF centered.  Open another door family from the Revit library, copy the center reference plane and paste aligned to your family you will see the discrepancy.

If you open the family you'll notice that there's a dimension requiring the 2 outside reference planes to be equidistant from the center line? So what would the location of the Center Plane matter?

Have you tried the family I fixed?  Apparently families have Internal origin, same as projects.  It may not matter in a lots of cases but in this specific one, it does, evidently with the defect you see when you load it in a curtain wall in the project.  Ideally, the intersection of the L/R and F/B reference planes (especially if they are set to be Origin) should be right at the Internal origin of the family.

Sorry, yes your family worked. I did try your method, but I wasn't allowed to copy the RP from a Revit CW family. It was grayed out for me.

Yes you cannot copy any built-in reference plane directly, draw a detail line using pick line the plane and copy paste the detail line instead.

Ah ok I see, thank you again!
