BIM Objects & Revit Families — OneTrack™ & MaxForce™

If It's Not in the Model,

It Doesn't Get Specified.

Accurate Revit families for both systems. Drop in. Coordinate. Specify by name.

The Specification Gap Starts in the Model

Most motorized screen manufacturers don't provide BIM objects at all. The ones that do offer generic placeholder geometry that doesn't reflect actual track dimensions, mounting clearances, or material properties. The result is predictable: the architect has to build the object from scratch or skip the product entirely. When the builder's dealer offers a substitution in the field, there's nothing in the construction documents accurate enough to reject it.

That's not a product problem. It's a documentation problem — and it's the problem NextGenScreens was built to eliminate.

OneTrack™ and MaxForce™ Revit families are dimensionally accurate, mounting-configuration-specific, and formatted to the standards professionals actually use. Download, place, specify. The product that's in your model is the product that's in your documents.

Download the Revit Family for Your System

Patented Single-Track System

OneTrack™ Revit Family

The OneTrack™ Revit family reflects the Lock Tight Keder single-track system as manufactured — accurate track profile geometry, head and sill mounting configurations, and material property assignments for aluminum extrusion and screen fabric. Formatted for direct placement into residential, hospitality, and commercial models.

File Format: Revit .rfa Includes: Track profile · Head detail · Sill detail · Jamb conditions · Material assignments

Best For: Patio, lanai, covered terrace, moderate wind exposure applications

Patented Fixed-Track Hurricane System

MaxForce™ Revit Family

The MaxForce™ Revit family reflects the Fixed Hurricane Track system as manufactured — heavy-gauge aluminum track profile, reinforced head and sill mounting configurations specific to hurricane-zone attachment requirements, and material property assignments for OmegaTex fabric and marine-grade aluminum. Formatted for coastal residential, commercial, and hospitality models in high-wind zones.

File Format: Revit .rfa Includes: Fixed track profile · Hurricane-zone head detail · Sill detail · Reinforced jamb conditions · Material assignments

Best For: Coastal residential, commercial, HVHZ-designated applications, Miami-Dade NOA-required projects

Every Document You Need. Already Built

What the Revit Families Include — and Why It Matters

A BIM object is only useful if it reflects the product as it's actually built and installed. Both the OneTrack™ and MaxForce™ Revit families are built to that standard.

Dimensionally Accurate Track Geometry section — track profile dimensions reflecting current production specifications with exact measurements, not rounded estimates, providing structural engineers with actual clearance numbers through precise BIM object coordination

Dimensionally Accurate Track Geometry

Track profile dimensions reflect current production specifications — not rounded estimates. When your structural engineer coordinates clearances, the BIM object gives them the actual numbers.

Mounting Configuration Details section — head, sill, and jamb configurations for standard mounting conditions included in both BIM families, with accurate starting points for project-specific modifications on non-standard substrates

Mounting Configuration Details

Both families include head, sill, and jamb configurations for standard mounting conditions. Professionals working on non-standard substrates can use these as the accurate starting point for project-specific modifications.

Material Property Assignments section — aluminum extrusion and screen fabric assigned with correct material properties for rendering, coordination, and material takeoff purposes, ensuring the BIM model accurately reflects the actual product

Material Property Assignments

Aluminum extrusion and screen fabric are assigned with correct material properties for rendering, coordination, and material takeoff purposes. The model reflects the product.

System-Specific Differentiation section — OneTrack and MaxForce are distinct retractable screen systems with different track profiles, mounting requirements, and structural implications, each represented by dedicated Revit families rather than a single generic BIM object

System-Specific Differentiation

OneTrack™ and MaxForce™ are different systems with different track profiles, different mounting requirements, and different structural implications. The Revit families reflect those differences — not a single generic object used for both.

Your Specification. Fully Protected.

Backed by patents, independent testing, and engineering data built to survive any review.

When It's in the Model, It Stays in the Spec

The specification that lives only in a written document is vulnerable. A dealer substitution gets proposed. The contractor's rep says the specified product isn't available in the required lead time. Value engineering targets anything without a documented performance justification in the construction drawings.

When OneTrack™ or MaxForce™ is modeled accurately in the BIM, it becomes part of the coordination record. Dimensions are coordinated. Clearances are documented. The product is embedded in the design intent in a way that a written substitution request has to actively argue against — not passively slip past.

This is why Fenetex built accurate Revit families, not generic placeholder geometry. When you specify a patented system with a documented BIM object, a PE-stamped engineering package, and a CSI 3-part spec behind it, the substitution argument becomes significantly harder to make.

Complete the Specification Package

The BIM objects are one component of the complete NextGenScreens specification package. Every additional document your construction drawings require is available in the same download library.

CSI 3-Part Specifications section — Division 10 73 00 formatted specifications available in .docx and PDF formats, ready for direct insertion into your project manual for both OneTrack and MaxForce retractable screen systems

CSI 3-Part Specifications

BE IN THE KNOW....

Don't let costly mistakes, wrong designs, wrong applications, or warranty-voiding your motorized screen investment. Manufacture are in the business of selling screens, contractors can cut corners, and many products often under perform promises. Don't be a victum. BE IN THE KNOW before you commit: understanding proper wind-load ratings, motor specifications, and installation requirements is the difference between screens that protect your home for decades and those that fail when you need them most is a simple choice, a choice of being an informed consumer.
