More usable space
Do you want more space? But don’t know how to get it? Have you ever had difficulties when trying to design the layout of your home? Don’t worry! It’s a common problem. Everyone struggles with where to put furniture and artwork. Being clever about where you place things can have a huge impact on the way that a room looks – and more importantly how the space works for you. Creating more usable space in your home can be accomplished through planning and creating intelligent, innovative layouts, and this is why sliding pocket door systems are so clever.
The reason why sliding pocket door systems work so well is that the door is top-hung on a sliding track that enables it to slide from side to side into a cavity, or pocket created in the wall. To put it simply – this saves a lot of space. In fact, pocket doors can create up to 8% more usable space in a 100m2 layout. Pocket door systems are suitable for any room in the home so the more that you install the more space you save. They perform brilliantly in apartments because, in these small abodes, any space that can be saved is extra precious!
Flexible living
Modern life can be complicated, but your home doesn’t have to be. You can make your home flexible to suit your lifestyle and needs. Standard hinged doors eat up space and stifle interior design flair. Pocket door systems give you more choices! What would your perfect layout be? Pocket door systems can help you to create more versatile layouts which can create more usable space.
Classic Double pocket doors and double telescopic pocket doors (where two door panels slide back into a pocket on either side of the door) give you the option to open up or close off open plan spaces easily, allowing spaces to be multi-functional while remaining interconnected.
To make a statement
Do you want to make a statement? Do you want to give your home the wow factor? Sometimes this can be a simple as adding a new piece of artwork or a new piece of furniture. But do you have space? If you need more usable space to make a game-changing addition to your home then a pocket door is the perfect solution.
Alternatively, if you want the door itself to be the statement then you can choose a curved pocket door system that will create a stunning design feature. To make an even greater impact you can opt for decorative glass with a hand painted image from Karis, a specialist glass door manufacturer from the Venice region of Italy, which will look truly stunning, original and entirely unique.
The best part is that pocket door systems aren’t expensive. Just because something works really well and looks fantastic, it doesn’t mean that is has to be expensive. Pocket door systems put a new spin on doors. They offer you the chance to change your home and be more imaginative with spaces.
