Revit provides a Pick Lines option for various drawing commands.

Pick Lines uses an existing line as a reference and draws an identical line offsetting a specified distance from the reference line.

The following shows the use of Pick Lines to draw grid lines. The same technique can be followed for some other drawing commands.

Left-click the reference grid line to fix the new line:

Move from the above of the second horizontal grid line > Left-click it to make it the new reference grid line and to fix the new grid line:

Repeat the action. All new grid lines will be 4000 mm from their own referenced grid lines:
