The space it between a family room and living room, no door jamb, just the walls. We are thinking of putting in a door to close this off, right now we are using a bamboo room divider.

Basic carpentry. Build a wall of 2x4 construction with an opening to fit the prehung door that you choose. Add wiring for outlets if you choose, add drywall, trim, paint. Takes a few different skills and if you don't have basic carpentry and drywall skills and tools you may want to hire this out. It will cost less than buying the tools.

The new trend is a barn door. If one of you can build, make one. They slide on a track. Put barn door into your search engine for pics.

I was going to suggest a sliding barn door as well!

Is the opening the size of a standard interior door? We have 2 openings in ours that are huge, so not an option for us without other work needed to be done. Maybe a pocket door, but not sure what sizes those come in or your opening size.
