Flush (when open) pivot door [elevator shaft protection]

Recommended Posts

Feel like I recall a thread on this some time ago, but no amount of searching can find it...

 

Looking for a simple way to do recessed / flush while open fire protection doors for elevator shafts; ie: outside of the wall.

Ideally something like the below image, where there's a wall recess for the door leaf, but inserting the door wrecks the recess.

Tried using the Exterior Wall Detail splay option, but that's not going to do quite what we need.

 

anyone got a hot tip?

Here's one way to try:

This is made of two separate walls ( 2x6 and 2x4 in this case).  There's a "Door in Wall" "Opening"  that then has the 2x4 wall with the swing door inserted into it.  You would then need to add wall closures at the opening in the 2x6 wall to wrap the interior finish as needed.  There are other threads in the forum covering the complicated settings needed to do this.
