A PocketDoor is a sliding door that, when fully open, disappears into a compartment in the
adjacent wall. PocketDoors have featured since the 1800’s but are resurging due to their space
saving qualities but also for architectural effect.
- They are practical because they save valuable floor space by eliminating the room
needed for traditional doors to swing open. - They fit into any look from traditional to contemporary – they can be simple or ornate with
modern hardware, stain, frosted or stained glass inserts. - They can create a private area within a larger space.
- They can act as a blank canvas for art, revealed when suits.
- PocketDoors can be a stunning architectural element that can be a focal point.
Anywhere you like but normally are used in living/dining rooms, separate living areas, bathrooms,
laundry areas, offices, mudrooms, hallway into kitchen, kitchen concealed walls, walk in
wardrobes, secret doors and as focal pieces.
