Simply edit the section using 2D elements like edit cut profile, filled regions, linework and detail elements.

@hub how about if we move the sections location latter or design changed do we need to update manually?...........is this not better to link arch'l model to struc'l & control with VG.

You should always be linking the models but that is not what you are asking and your section doesn't tell us what you want.   If you just want the architectural door to show up in that opening then turning on the linked model doors would probably do the trick.
