generic elevator family

[rteplow]

I've searched this board and find hardly anything on elevator families, except to see that Otis includes more detail than any Revit model can handle. I see that there is no OOTB elevator family included with my version of Revit.

I see recommendations for Digipara but here is the thing: I use Revit LT 2021 so I could download a family but cannot use plug-ins. I know of the usual free BIM sites, but there's a lot, so if anyone has a recommendation I'd be grateful. Thanks in advance, again.

Got any OOTB here? US Metric\Specialty Equipment\Elevators and Lifts

This elevator came from Canada's OOTB file. See if that works for you.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I don't have it, metric or imperial, any folder. I don't know if it's a 2021 thing or a LT thing.

Thanks, syman2000. I'll check them out.

I just checked them all out. I might be able to make it work, but I'm going to either look for another family that already has parameters I can edit to make it fit or else I might finally dive into family creation and add parameters of my own.

Thanks, though. It's a good start. I don't know why my version of Revit LT didn't come with a basic elevator.
