Kolbe adds Ultra Folding Door 3-D models to BIM library

by Jonathan McGaha | 14 March 2012 12:00 am

Kolbe[1] has added a new Revit® 3-D model of its Ultra Series Folding Door to its collection of more than 1,000 window and door models.

Kolbe’s building information modeling (BIM) tools can link with external data sources to instantly compile quantity takeoffs. The easy-to-use tool allows users to customize the doors’ width, height, wall offset and the number of panels. Kolbe’s Folding Doors can accommodate up to eight panels on each side that fold back against each other to create expansive openings that span up to 45-feet.

Kolbe’s new 3-D Folding Door Revit model is available online at:
* Revit City[2]
* Autodesk Seek[3]
* CADdetails[4]
* Kolbe’s website’s “Architect Library[5]” section

In addition to BIM tools, visitors to Kolbe’s online Architect Library can access 2-D drawings; warranties, installation and maintenance information, and online videos[6] to demonstrate Ultra Folding Doors’ product operation and performance testing. Kolbe’s website also contains air, water, structural and thermal reports, as well as a database for thousands of Kolbe’s ENERGY STAR qualified products.
