Revit Family Renamer Pack (Archgyan x BIMKraft)

Standardise every family name in your Revit model from one dialog.

Inherited models arrive with family names from three different offices and five different conventions. This pack drops two batch renaming tools into a single pyRevit ribbon panel so you can bring loadable families and system family types onto one clean naming standard, with a full editable preview before anything changes.

What's inside

• Loadable Family Renamer: lists every loadable family with its category, applies a structured [Component][Location][Material] convention, auto-detects 21 material codes (HEA, IPE, RHS, glulam, precast concrete and more), and filters by category or name
• System Family Renamer: batch renames wall, floor, ceiling, roof, stair, and railing types by duplicating them with new names, using prefix, suffix, or find-and-replace, with an optional safe delete of unplaced originals
• Editable preview grid in both tools: review and adjust every proposed name before applying
• Duplicate and conflict validation before any rename runs
• A step-by-step INSTALL.pdf covering pyRevit setup and both tools

Who this is for

• BIM managers enforcing a naming convention across project models and templates
• BIM professionals cleaning up family names in models handed over by consultants
• Revit users transitioning into BIM who want reviewable batch renaming instead of one-by-one edits in the project browser

Requirements

• Autodesk Revit 2021 or newer
• pyRevit installed (free, from pyrevitlabs.io)
• Both tools run in a single confirmable, undoable Revit transaction

What you'll get faster

The naming-standard pass that usually eats an afternoon. Load the families, apply the convention or your own prefix and find-and-replace rules, review the grid, and apply in one confirmable pass.
