The traditional way is to select the curtain panel and change it to a curtain panel door. This requires that you load into your project a door that is "curtain wall" based and then select the curtain panel you want to be a door and then change that panel into the curtain door you loaded. This method has some limitations and below is what I currently do.
--------------------------------------------------------
One trick I have been using is to place regular door families into curtain walls. To do this, select the curtain panel and change it to a regular wall type. I usually make a dummy wall type the same thickness as my curtain panel thickness.
Now that the curtain panel you have selected is a wall, you can simply insert a regular door family into it and it will schedule properly and can get placed onto a legend. The trick is to make sure that you use a door family with no trim and have the clear space between the mullions exactly the width and height of your door. When the door "cuts" your dummy wall, the dummy wall will completely disapear leaving just the door.
