Issues with wall based family

Revit
1

Dear all,

I’m trying to place a lintel generic model wall based on top of all the doors in the project. Currently i managed to extract the information i need from the doors, but for some reason the lintel family are not in the correct coordinate and the geometry is not showing up.

Thanks in advance for your help.

It will not work as it’s wall based family and you use family by point . You might use new family “Metric generic model” it will work with node “family instance by point” and then adjust it’s height by the parameters you get from doors.

I hope it helps.
