Re: create own 3D models with opening
1) is there a good library of times like handles etc.? I tried https://www.bimobject.com/ but it seems not ideal for this purpose.
I don't know of a specific library for handles. What I usually do is find a model with the handle that I like and use that to get the handle: import the model in SH3D, modify the properties by making every part invisible except the handle, export the partial model, import the handle. That way you get a model of just the handle.

2) is it easily feasible to generate texture from pictures? I would like to have you wooden floor available as texture.
You can import an image to use as a texture. There's an Import button on the modify window after you click to change the texture.

Lastly, what is the recommended application (if there is one) if you want to create models outside SH3D?
I create most of my models with SH3D with the occasional usage of Blender for those things SH3D is not capable of doing. If you read through this forum you will see that Blender is the most used program for creating models but it's a lot more difficult to learn than SH3D.
