Schindler Elevator BIM Model?

[Anonymous]

Does anybody have an interactive BIM model for a Schindler 2500lb and 3500lb elevator that interacts with the walls in Revit 2017 to make openings and doors, etc, like Revit elevators usually do?  Schindler's website only has models from Revit 2011 that don't automatically create doorways, snap to walls, or allow you to change the height/number of landings.

Which "Revit elevators" can automatically cut floors and walls that you are speaking of?  I don't remember it comes with any smart things like that out of the box.  The usual business is load in a elevator family to get the dimensions required, use a shaft to cut the floors, draw shaft walls, and pop doors in.

Or you can take a look at the tool by Otis see if it can be of any help.

I use digipara's free add in when designing or placing elevators.

Hi @Anonymous

If you want the 'elevator family' to cut walls then make a custom door family as suggested by @rosskirby on the above thread.
