use Complex Profile on vertical plane

Can anyone give me directions to draw something like a raised panel door.
I can do it with complex profiles with slab tool on horizontal, and tilt up to see in 3d. But how to create this element in real vertical position?

You are almost there.
Do what you have done with slabs and then save this selection as an object.
Or better still if it is to be a door save it as a "door" object and then it can be used with the door tool and will cut the hole in the wall automatically.

There are many posts here and in Archicadwiki about saving as objects and door/window objects.
