I had the same problem and unfortunately I did not find a suitable solution. The only workaround was to hack the Rails Admin using javascript.
So, to hide the model document from the navigation menu, I added this code to "app / assets / javascripts / rails_admin / custom / ui.js":
$(document).on('rails_admin.dom_ready', function() { $('ul.nav-pills li[data-model="document"]').hide(); });
I hope that the best way to do this will be implemented soon.
