Audience

Who it is for

Houses and low-rise models

Sliding, folding, swing and corner doors placed into the wall at the right size, instead of building each frame by hand.

High-rise facades

Curtain walls built to a grid module and storey height, with exposed frame, structural glazing, spider fittings or a slim black frame.

Anyone editing doors in bulk

Flip in/out, mirror left–right, open to 50% or close all, select every door of the same type: one command for the whole selection.

Workflow

How you work — step by step

  1. 01

    Pick a type

    Browse the library by group: sliding, stacking, folding, swing, L-corner sliding and curtain walls.

  2. 02

    Pick how to place it

    From an existing opening (a face), from the two faces of a thick wall, along an edge used as the sill (Line), or by dragging three points: start, end, then height.

  3. 03

    Set the parameters

    Width, height, number of leaves, fixed panel above, fixed panels left and right, number of horizontal and vertical mullions, frame profile, aluminium and glass colour. Sizes outside the valid range are rejected with the reason.

  4. 04

    Edit it later

    Select a built door and edit its details, flip in/out, mirror left–right, open to 50% or close all from the right-click menu.

Deep dive

Features in depth

▸

Five door groups and a curtain-wall group

Sliding, stacking, folding, swing and L-corner sliding doors, each with several layouts by number of leaves. Curtain walls are the sixth group.

▸

Curtain walls built to a module

Enter the length of each run or arc and divide it into bays by a maximum module and the storey height. A wall can follow a multi-segment path, with fixed panels, horizontal and vertical mullions, spandrel panels between floors, and per-cell edits.

▸

Four curtain-wall styles

Exposed frame with glass between the frame members, structural glazing (SSG), spider fittings with glass fins, and a slim black steel-look frame.

▸

Named frame profiles

Doors use the Basic 50 or Resort Slim profile. Curtain walls offer Xingfa 65, Schüco 50 and a slim black frame.

▸

Ready-made aluminium, glass and spandrel colours

Aluminium colours including several RAL codes, a range of glass tints and spandrel colours. Pick from a list instead of building materials yourself.

▸

Materials named so Sync recognises them

Glass, aluminium and spandrel carry names that follow the Lotuz Sync convention, so when you push to 3ds Max they are recognised as glass, metal or solid.

▸

Bad sizes are stopped before building

Each type has a valid size range and constraints on leaves, fixed panels and mullions. An invalid value is rejected with the reason, instead of producing a broken shape.

FAQ

Common questions

Do the doors open?+

Yes. Doors have an opening state: open to 50% or close all, for a whole selection at once. Curtain walls have no opening leaves.

How do I place one in a thick wall?+

Use the Two faces mode: click the outer face, then the inner face of the wall. Corner doors work with Two faces, Line or drag.

Can I edit it after building?+

Yes. Select the door and open the detail editor to change parameters; flip in/out and mirror left–right are in the right-click menu.

Can I send it to 3ds Max?+

Yes. The result is ordinary SketchUp geometry, sent to Max with Lotuz Sync (bought separately).

Is there a trial?+

No. Paid Arch plugins have no trial; the trial on a new account covers the image tools only. The free tools work as soon as you create an account.

How do I buy it?+

Buy Lotuz Windows by the year from the price block at the top of the page and pay by VietQR bank transfer; orders are approved during working hours. Install the Lotuz installer and sign in with the account you bought it on.
