Liftdesigner - How to setup a user defined door width

Recently a question came up, how to change the door to a specific individual door width. In this case the user wanted to get a 48" door width for a single speed door. Unfortunately this door is available as 36" only.

First, select a door from the database that is almost similar:

Then select the door. In category [0196], you will find "Extended door dimensions".

If you click on the very right button with the 3 dots a pretty powerful dialog box comes up and it is easy to change the door width.

Repeat the same operation for the car door:

Step 3: Enable or disable component sub-profiles via the property “Subcomponents”.
