Make Cabinet Door with Sweep Fully Parametric

I am new to Revit and am building cabinet families. I have created a cabinet door using a sweep and loaded it into my cabinet family. I need to lock the edges of the cabinet door to the (blue) reference planes so that the door can flex with the cabinet size. I was able to lock the width of the cabinet door but cannot get the height to work. I see that the width has four grip handles and the height has three. How do I get the height to have four grip handles as well?

Don't use grips to flex nested door family in host family. Use parameters. Use labeled dimensions for width and height of door and then associate those parameters to host parameters for width and height.   The host parameter will then drive the nested family's width and height.  

 

Also, your specific issue is most likely because the Origin Planes in the Family are on-center, so the door flexes equally in two directions simultaneously -- from center outwards.  You're trying to flex it in one direction in the host.  It doesn't flex like that.   

 

4 Grips for one direction??? No. You should have only 2.   One at the beginning (Origin Plane) and one at the end.

Thank you so much for the reply. I will definitely look into associating the parameters. My problem was indeed the origin planes being on center. After adjusting my cabinet door to have a top, middle and bottom and getting it to flex from the middle I was able to get it to work.
