Passing Family Type through multiple nested families as a parameter

I have a family of various sized wall-hanging bins. Each type is a different bin size. I want to create a family that is basically a 2-dimensional array of these bins, where you can control the type of bin, horz and vert spread, and number of horz and vert bins. 

 

Family layout: Bin->HorzArray->VertArray

 

I can get the BinType to show up in the HorzArray family, but I can't figure out how to get it to pass through to the VertArray Family. 

 

Any ideas as to how this can be done?

So, you want to Array the bin in both the x and y direction? If so, then nest and Array the "x" Array Family in another Family.  That make sense? 

 

Here's an example of a Family that arrays in both directions. The Family is in the attached Project. 

 

Another way to do this is with a Curtain Wall. Put the Bin in a Curtain Wall Panel Family and use it in a Curtain Wall in the Project.  Array it via Vertical and Horizontal Grid Spacing.

Associate the array parameter of the horizontal array with a parameter in the vertical array family so you can control both arrays in project.

 

But you know what is easier?  Model the bin as a curtain panel family and use curtain wall to array it.
