Leaf thickness for door marker

I'm trying to make a custom door marker. One piece of information I want to use is the door leaf thickness. I have been trying to wade through the door script to find out what the parameter might be called with no success. I am looking for the parameter with the tooltip "Leaf Thickness" in this screenshot from the standard UK library - but I expect it is the same everywhere. Does anyone know the name of this parameter or where I should be looking to find it?

Excellent. Thank you. That does exactly what I need. I had tried searching for "thickness" and "thick" but hadn't thought to try "thk".

In the GDL editor Parameters window the search box searches in parameter names and descriptions too.

Thanks. I've found that now - which would have been a much easier way to find it in the first place. Definitely quite a learning curve, but also the possibilities are endless.
