How to add description to a custom door

I created a custom door using walls and slabs, and saving the selection as a door. However, because its custom, the Description panel is not there, d therefore I can't put in information for it to appear in the Door Schedule.

Saving selection as a custom door will give you a basic, non-parametric door object.

You would have to edit the object scripts and add all of the parameters you want if you really need them.

There is a macro you can add that should give all of that to you, so the amendment of a single CALL. I do not have access to AC atm, but will check back later if no one else has dug it up by then.
