Got a good one here
How would the best of you model a set of Corner Cavity Slider Doors up?
I have the thought of using 2 separate Door Families, or Curtain Walls with Door Panels?
Any advice would be appreciated

This is surprising quite easy. Instead of using an opening in your door family you use a void to cut the opening. The void is smart enough to cut both the host wall and the adjacent wall. So all your void is a L shaped extrusion in plan with parameters for width, height and thickness. The only thing you can't link the second leg to the thickness of the wall so i set this a instance parameter and manually set the thickness as required.
If you can find my Fixed Glass Corner Window All Angles file it is very similar to this but a little less complex as in your case its only for right angles. (from memory i uploaded it here, but its also on RevitCity)
HTH.
