glass garage door

I'm looking for a glass garage door. I came across this post, but for some reason it was not allowing me to reply there.

That post is old and now locked.

Probably the best way is to model some slabs to represent the door frame and glass.

Then save that as a custom door leaf that you can then use in the garage door object.

Hi,

Or you can always try with a third party object:

That was for example ALR F42 glazing - from Hoermann - they have really good Archicad objects..

Thanks for both answers, the Hoermann .lcf files are actually perfect, never would have found those on my own. The custom option is good to know for the future.

Has anyone checked these GDL objects to make sure they don't product the copy/paste unwanted attributes bug?

I haven’t checked them but with these I haven’t had any issues so far (at least issues that I can notice).

I just extracted the LCFs and couldn't see any MASTER_GDL files that create the attributes.

And I can't see anything odd in the attributes when I load the libraries.
