Hey guys, looking for a garage door like below. Would this have to be manually built somehow on CA? Owner is adamant on his business having this type of door. What we have in the library is too nice. I have every manufacturer downloaded in my library and don't see anything.

Rob,

 

I gave this a whirl.  First time building a custom garage door for me.  Others might have an easier method.

 

I built custom door panels out of 3D solids in elevation.  Basically 2 panel types -- 1 for lower panel and 1 for the 3 upper panels with glass.  I then created separate Millwork symbols for each of the panel types.  I then assembled (stacked) the millwork panel symbols in elevation to create my new door assembly.  I then created a new door symbol out of these 4 millwork panels.

 

You could probably skip creating separate millwork symbols for each panel types, but the thinking was if they were their own symbol they could more easily be rearranged if the door panel layout changed.

 

This took maybe 10 minutes.  

 

Jim
