KMS Woodworks on May 27, 2012Do you have some odd ball size? Most home center stock the more common sizes, and can order many other less common ones.Helpful Reply

Woodbridge Environmental Tiptophouse.com on May 28, 2012Its not uncommon not to have a standard size opening in many homes. I run into this all the time when I do renovations. If over sized doors cannot be cut down, you can either make the opening smaller, or have custom sized doors made. Home centers can order these custom sizes for you, but be prepared as they tend to be a bit on the expensive side.Helpful Reply

Therese C on Jun 04, 2012I just replaced my bi-fold doors in the master bedroom with sliding Shoji doors that I built. I found that it saved me a lot of space to slide them back and forth rather than open them out. They look very sleek and modern!Helpful Reply

Therese C on Jun 05, 2012my bedroom doors are just like this, but black. I will post actual photos of my closets as soon as the entire master bedroom remodel is finished and the doors are hung. These were very easy to build.Helpful Reply

Therese C on Jun 06, 2012Thanks KMS! Anyone interested in building Shoji doors or screens, here is a tip. They normally call for rice or Mulberry paper to be used and that is VERY expensive and intricate to work with (ie the spraying and drying & stretching, etc..)... I actually used standard Parchment paper that is used for baking. The results are the same and if they should get torn, very easy and cheap to replace.Helpful Reply
