There are lots of different types of pocket doors available to suit your needs and the style of your home; this includes single doors for smaller areas, double doors for grander spaces, fire-rated to meet building regulations and telescopic pocket doors whereby two doors disappear into one wall cavity (rather than split down the middle). Pocket doors can be made from wood or metal; they are also available as full glass doors or with glass panes which allow light to gently diffuse between rooms (while still providing a divider to zone the two spaces). You can also opt for pocket doors with no framing architrave if you prefer.
Why should I choose to have a pocket door?
Pocket doors are not too hard to install, you just need to plan ahead and make sure that you are able to create a wall cavity. If you are looking to renovate consider pocket doors as a stylish alternative to side-hinged interior doors as they are a classic trend that won’t be going anywhere anytime soon! In fact, I expect to see their popularity grow even more in 2024.
