Revit Family Displays Differently in Main Model

Hey Hive Mind, 

 Wondering if someone has a solution to my problem. I have been working on making families and creating a set of doors with no issues. I've then used the same template to create a pocket door for a site, and it's quite specific in how it's ( Not a proper pocket door but a sliding door that goes into a false wall hidden behind wardrobes ID design, not mine). Anyway, I've created all the elements, and the whole thing works in sections, 3D views, etc, within the family file; however, when loading it into the Main model, the motifs around the door panel are offset and not aligned.

I've set Ref Pains, locked elements in place, unlocked them, etc., and hit a brick wall with it. Both the Main model and families are my own, using the same Revit version, etc. It does the same for a new project. 

Note that the door is designed specially to work with a 6" wall thickness. All the other doors I have made using this template have worked 100%.

Any ideas? Thanks in Advance for your expertise!

You need to constrain the frame to the door because the door geometry is overlapping with the frame. Just use the align tool, select the door, then the frame, and lock it.

Thank you vitorbortoncello. I knew it would be something so silly and simple!
I think by the time I got to this family, I had so many references and planes to use it was a little mess, so I recreated the file from scratch again and followed this, and it worked!

 

Thank you so much! Star!
