How would you do this (Door Hinge, thick wall)

I'm always curious how we get certain features like "inset door jamb" but not "inset door"

 

I have a commercial property in an old town square that has original 20" solid brick wall and I need to swing the doors out like shown.  There is 6" cavity around the door but that is it.  The rest of the wall is solid.  I  need this door to swing out into the cavity from the inside of the wall.  Any help would be appreciated.

OK, Try this.

  1. Make an opening in the brick wall (no frame, no casings)
  2. Make the 4" thick wall about 12 " inside the room and mark it "No Room Definition"
  3. Place your door in that wall. 
  4. You might want to adjust the wall to the width and height of the Brick Wall Opening.
  5. Move the 4" thick wall to be flush with the inside of the Brick Wall.

There are other methods but this will work fine.

Thanks Joe, I'll try that.  Pony wall doesn't work unfortunately.  But the "No Definition" and "No locate" are great ideas thanks
