Sep 12, 2026
Need a door opening in a 3D wall in AutoCAD?
SUBTRACT cuts one solid from another. In this video we subtract a 90 x 210 cm door from a 20 cm wall.
Learn: why overlapping solids leave no hole, how SUBTRACT keeps one wall, and how the opening appears in 3D.
Manual: BOX the wall, BOX the door, overlap, no opening
Faster: SUBTRACT, select the wall, select the door, opening cut
This video uses AutoCAD 2021 with centimeters as the drawing unit.
