"The block frame (also known as a block-type frame or floor frame) consists of a solid jamb (jamb board or deep frame) that is installed without decorative or rebate trim to cover the wall sections. The block frame is as wide as the wall is thick. It is usually made of wood, sheet steel, or aluminum. Various types of door panels can be hung in the different block frame designs."

Information on handling doors in the early design phases is described in the article "Doors: General Information."
In this phase, the surfaces of a block frame are defined and the component’s structural properties are specified.

Instructions
Depending on the content used, these required characteristics can vary; the modeling methodology (multi-layer or hybrid) also determines this. Accordingly, an opening function must be provided for the door; however, this does not apply in the case of a single-layer modeling methodology.
The basic process of modeling a door in ARCHICAD remains the same across different design phases and for different types of doors.
Instructions for creating a door can be found in the article "Door: General."
During this phase of the design process, additional building physics data is incorporated into the component.
This also includes information related to fire safety.
