Hi Khalil, welcome! :wave:

Please take the time to read the following post How to get help on the Dynamo forums

You can do this in Revit:

  • Make a new type of the previous door with the preferred width
  • Go to the default 3d view
  • Enable temporary view properties
  • Open visibility/graphics overrides (vv keyboard shortcut)
  • Turn off visibility for all elements except doors
  • Find the door type you want to change in the view
  • Use context menu to select all

  • Change your door and type to the one you created from the properties menu

  • Disable temporary view properties

Use this way as it will preserve each door’s instance parameter information
