In the early stages, no distinction is made between facade panels and their use as facade doors.

Instructions
To replace a front door, follow these steps:
1. Mark the slice
2. Unpin
The "Dimensions" parameters are defined by the facade grids
The basic process of modeling an opening in the form of a door in ARCHICAD remains the same across all design phases—regardless of the type of door. However, for a facade door, the Window tool is used to create a window-door.
A window-door is always inserted into a wall that has already been modeled. When doing so, pay attention to its positioning on the original floor, particularly the floor structure height. The window-door is labeled using the marker available in the settings dialog.
Detailed instructions on windows can be found in the tutorials: under ARCHICAD Specifics > Building Elements > Openings - Windows.
