PROISAC-BIM-VDC Lock-It with Password (Admin) Overview
It is a powerful tool designed to protect specific model elements in a BIM environment, ensuring they remain untouched unless explicitly allowed. This secure tool prevents unauthorized modifications by implementing a password-locking feature on selected items, making it ideal for professionals who want added security in their digital designs. The tool is compatible with Autodesk Revit and protects elements across various versions from 2020 to 2025.Features of PROISAC-BIM-VDC Lock-It with Password (Admin)
Protecting Critical Elements
This tool gives users peace of mind by securing crucial elements within their models. The software allows password protection for critical components, making it much harder for accidental or unauthorized changes to occur. Whether working in a collaborative environment or sharing files, the security feature ensures that critical elements remain precisely as intended.
Enhanced Security
One of the standout features of this tool is its strength compared to the standard PIN tool in Autodesk Revit. It goes beyond basic security by protecting elements from accidental deletions, unapproved modifications, and changes to essential structural items like grids and levels. This increased level of security helps maintain the integrity of your work, regardless of potential risks, in a collaborative environment.
Comprehensive Coverage of Protected Elements
The software extends its protection across various model categories, including View Templates, Filters, Sheets, Materials, Schedules, Views, Parameters, and Families. This breadth of protection ensures that essential design elements are secure from alterations, giving users more control over their work. Setting up Lock-It (Admin) ensures that all these items remain in their original state unless unlocked.
Collaboration with Lock-It (User)
It works seamlessly with Lock-It (User), a companion tool that restricts changes to locked elements. While Lock-It (User) can’t lock or unlock items, it prevents any modifications or deletions of protected elements, making it a valuable addition to team-based projects. This pairing creates a robust security framework, allowing collaborators to view and work around protected elements without risking accidental changes.
Ideal for Multi-User Environments
The tool is handy in environments where multiple people are involved. Whether files are shared within a network or sent externally, it offers an advanced solution for managing access and control. This approach allows users to share their work confidently, knowing that unauthorized users won’t be able to alter or erase essential elements.
Improved Control Over BIM Standards
Maintaining consistent standards in BIM models can be challenging, but this software helps simplify that process. The tool ensures that models comply with predefined standards by preventing unsanctioned changes to grids, levels, and other structural items. The software effectively locks in the quality and accuracy of work, aiding teams in achieving uniform results.
