    Thanks for uploading the pics - yes, that is a very custom door so you are right. Very heavy duty frame, and the post that supports the swing has a "flying buttress" like brace.

    To get a fully accurate 3D model that renders this correctly, I am afraid the only way I know is using psolid tools in Chief - and in fact, I would probably use Sketchup or another 3D app if it was my project. If you are looking just for a 2D representation on a floor plan, that is something different. How far are you wanting to take the accuracy of the model?

    The 2D view is probably sufficient, although something that looks reasonably good in 3D wouldn't hurt. I do have the skill necessary to draw something up in a modeling program, but I'm not sure that 'Home Architect Suite' has the capability to have a single swinging door that's more than 4' wide. At least that's what I'm gathering from the discussion in the other forum.
