People who live in a small area wanted to save space on small units without having a swinging door through the use of pocket door set. This entrance serves as entryway to another room and dematerializes into the wall when there is no need for privacy. Here is the step by step guide in installing doors and maximize usage of cramped spaces.
First of all, take visit to the hardware store and purchase the entire kit composed of track, doors, and split studs. Specifically designed to collapse flatly adjacent to the wall, this passageway object comes with various specifications, styles, and models to choose from. Therefore, it is highly recommended for the user to properly go through the installation manual that comes along with the product to ensure that the process goes smoothly.
Before installing the revolving barrier at the entrance, prepare first the frame and the area. Carefully measure first the wall to ensure that this kind of barrier will have adequate space when installed to the wall. Make sure also that the installation project does not affect the plumbing and wiring so check that out as well.
Next, remove the drywall, sills, studs, and plates in order to attach the header making sure it is just of right size with bigger header for heavier doors. Then carefully attach the hollow metal-wrapped channel called split studs to the header and the floor. Attachment of the hanging brackets at the door's topmost portion then follows after.
When it comes to the door's frame, it is highly advisable to measure its actual face to see to it that it perfectly snaps into the rough opening. Keep the track in the same level with the frame when the nails are mounted to the frame. Make sure also that the nails and screws are of their proper placement when the dry wall is reattached.
After the frame has been properly secured into place, follow the manufacturer's manual to the letter when mounting the revolving barrier at the entrance. This process can be accomplished easier and better with the assistance of a friend particularly when the wheels are inserted into the track. Take note that the door's position is in a titled position when the sliding revolving barrier at the entrance is snapped into the roller wheel. Once done, check the door's appearance and functionality to make sure everything is in place otherwise there might be a need for the frames to be adjusted.
For the final touches, install the drywall compound; mount screws and panel adhesives to the drywall in a careful fashion. Repeat the process and add some more compound layers once the materials have already dried up. Complete the installation process by cutting and mounting the trim casing at the top portions of the revolving barrier at the entrance.
Installing of pocket door set can also is actually easier when done during the new construction since there is no need any more to cut some studs in the process. But if the process of installing the device is too much hassle for you to go through, then better put an open pocket door instead which is attached to the interior of the outside wall. So go ahead and make the best of your tiny space.
