Playing around today, I found a trick that works pretty well for putting doors of a fixed size in a curtainall.  Simply create another wall that is in the same plane asd the curtainwall.  You can make the wall be the same thickness as the glazing channel or if your door is to have a subframe around it, you can make the wall width match the subframe width.  Extend the wall to the align with the mullions that would frame the opening for the door and then insert the door into the dummy wall.

I almost forgot.  Another way to implement this trick is to select a panel and switch it to a wall.  You could make a wall type that is 1" thick.  Insert the door into wall and all is well.
