Roll up doors

Anonymous

I'm trying to place a roll up door on a project. I tried using a garage door fron the library part but it doesnt have the option to have a roll up cilinder (where door actually rolls up). Is there a Roll up door on the library parts?

A "coiling door"? No. I made my own -- it's not 100%, but might work for you.

Hi Laura,
I tried to use your door but whatever I do (like open a section) it appears a missing macro warning... actually it happens twice every time (for 2 lines). Do you know what's wrong here??

Here is a very quick and simple one that I made recently, with no macro calls. The modeling is minimal (at least it's very quick), but it does allow a choice of inset and overlay.

You can find them in German and Hungarian libraries of praticular manufacturers. Can't remember where for the life of me now ...

That's a standard AC door/window macro from the US Library -- sorry, I hadn't considered the other libraries.

No problem Laura. It was a good intention anyway.

Thanks a lot for your door Matthew!

My pleasure. Hope it does the trick for you. The code is also very simple if you feel inclined to tweak it to your needs.
