Flush single door with round knob
Free CAD block from the Doors in elevation library (148 blocks), drawn 1:1.
About this block
Flush single door with round knob, drawn in plan, front and side elevation, the plan and the side elevation projected from its 3D model with hidden lines removed. It measures 2' 11" wide, 6' 11" high and 8½" deep (90 cm × 2.10 m × 22 cm), and it is drawn 1:1, full size, so it drops into any drawing set up in meters or in inches without rescaling.
It also comes as a 3D model built from these drawings.
From the Doors in elevation library: 148 blocks drawn to one standard, each one available on its own.
In practice
Where it goes
A blank flush leaf with a round knob is the workhorse for offices, hospital wards, back-of-house areas and new housing. Draw it on interior elevations wherever a plain door is specified, and add a vision panel or a fire-rating label on the leaf when the schedule asks for one. It reads cleanly at ⅛ in = 1 ft (1:100).
Clearances to leave
Its 35 in × 6 ft 11 in (90 × 210 cm) size matches the comfortable accessible width and the common door height. Keep 18 in (46 cm) beside the knob on the pull side and leave a 60 in (152 cm) turning circle in front where a wheelchair user has to approach and reverse.
Pairs with
Two-panel single door with knob is the step up where a bit more detail is wanted. Heavyset man in shirt and tie standing sets the scale in an office corridor. Laminate finish in a mid-gray with a stainless knob.
Common questions
What are the dimensions of this block?
It measures 2' 11" | 90 cm wide by 6' 11" | 2.10 m high. The drawing is 1:1, full size, so it inserts at the right size in metric and in imperial drawings.
Is there a 3D model of this block?
Yes. A 3D model built from this block's drawings, 2' 11" wide, 8½" deep and 6' 11" high, is free to download in STEP, DXF 3D, OBJ, GLB, 3MF and STL. It is a closed part, so it also prints at 1:50 or 1:100 for a scale model.
File formats, AutoCAD versions and units are explained on the formats page; every file is free for personal and commercial work under the license.

3D model
Built at real size from the front drawing, from its front elevation, read as a relief: a solid frame 16 cm deep, a 4.5 cm leaf the same on both faces, moldings proud and panels sunk, panels and plank infill in a second tone, and the hardware the drawing shows (knobs, studs, pulls, strap hinges with their rivets). Drag to orbit, underneath too; scroll or pinch to zoom.

Design notes
- Street trees are usually planted 19' 8" to 32' 10" apart, at least 3' 3" from the curb.
- A parallel parking bay is about 6' 7" to 8' 2" wide and 18' 1" to 19' 8" long.
- People and cars at real size give clients an instant sense of scale in a facade drawing.
