Griffin Posted September 9, 2016 Share Posted September 9, 2016 OK, I 'm pulling my gray hair out trying to get a simple commercial steel door jamb to display correctly in a masonry wall. When I set the exterior casing to zero width (workaround), the jamb displays, but the door is offset to the wall width, and the threshold is narrowed to the the jamb opening dimension. While I'm asking, is there a way to show a proper door configuration with a rebated jamb in CA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidJPotter Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Not all steel doors are equal, what is a "rebated" jamb please? I would need a clear understanding of what you steel door jamb should look like in order to answer, can you help me? DJP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solution rlackore Posted September 12, 2016 Solution Share Posted September 12, 2016 David, I believe Griffin means "rabbeted". Griffin, to answer your question, there is no satisfactory method I've found to model a commercial steel door frame, either in plan or 3D. Several of us have Suggested this be fixed, so far no joy. Again, if Chief is going to tout itself as suitable for light commercial construction, this is one of several very important issues they need to address.
