We're hoping to refit our ensuite bathroom in the next few months. One thing that absolutely has to change is the door. At the moment, it opens into the bathroom, which makes an already-small room feel positively titchy.
The cheapest option would absolutely be to reverse the door so it opened out into the bedroom, and this may still be what we do - but that isn't ideal either as DH will 100% leave it open all the time so I'd be forever closing it, walking round it and being annoyed about it blocking light from our bedroom window.
So, I've been looking at pocket sliding doors - the ones that slide back into a stud wall cavity. I'm pretty sure we could fit one in - we have a long enough stretch of stud wall next to the doorway. DH is quite resistant to the idea though - he thinks it will be very expensive.
So - can anyone tell me how much fitting one is likely to cost, even just a ballpark? We would be able to take the plasterboard down on the bathroom side to expose the studwork, if that would help.
Also - if anyone has one of these, I would love to know what you think about it!
