It’s actually unfortunate because pocket doors are wonderful for many reasons.

Also, modern high-quality pocket door hardware and frames allow these doors to remain trouble free for the life of the home. bathroom door lock

A pocket door is a sliding door that slides along its length and disappears, when open, into a compartment in the adjacent wall. Pocket doors are used for architectural effect, or when there is no room for the swing of a conventional door. They usually travel on rollers suspended from an overhead track, although some also feature tracks or guides along the floor. Both single- and double-door versions are used, depending on how wide an entry is desired.

The next type of pocket door hardware that we have available is our pocket door pulls. We have both economy priced pocket door pulls and heavy duty pocket door pulls. These are available in a variety of materials and finishes. They are available in solid brass, solid bronze, and wrought steel. These pocket door pulls are available in both passage and privacy functions. A passage function allows you to only open and close the doors with a pull on the side, and an edge pull built into the edge. It is meant to shut the door securely, but not as a very secure lock.

Pocket doors are sliding doors that retract into a wall. They are commonly used in partition walls for bathrooms off of a master bedroom or in closets where a regular, hinged door would intrude into the space in the room. Installing a pocket door requires removing a section of the existing wall to accommodate the framing and rails of the pocket door, so plan on demolishing and re-finishing the plaster or drywall on the wall after the door is installed.
