Working With Autodesk Revit Moulding Profiles
Autodesk Revit is the easiest way for those working in architecture, engineering, and construction to model metal mouldings onto their project. Trying out the famous Dahlstrom catalog of 500+ moulding profile shapes has never been easier.
Below we’ve compiled resources for using our Revit files and increasing productivity through effective Building Information Modeling (BIM) management. We recommend you start with the video on creating a moulding profile in Revit. If you’d like to receive a full suite of working files, click below for a free download:

Creating an Autodesk Revit Moulding Profile
Wondering how to select a Dahlstrom moulding profile as a .dwg file and create a Revit moulding family from it? We show you in this video.
This guide provides information on applying Dahlstrom metal mouldings to common architectural elements, allowing designers to evaluate trim moulding profiles in the BIM model. Use CAD data to turn a .dwg drawing of a moulding profile into a 3D extrusion for wall surfaces, baseboard mouldings, doors, and window trim!
The decorative metal mouldings you see are from our online store selection.
