I have a pocket door between th MBR and MBath.
Its in the wall, i.e. in the full open position. Hasn't really worked since I bought the house in 1978. Doesn't clear the rug side of the passageway between he bedroom and the bathroom.
I'm going to be re - carpeting the MBR and installing a tile floor in the MBath.
I know that I can re do the carpet and the tile floor leaving the poket door in the wall.
As long as I'm going to be doing the capet and a new tile floor in the bath, I figure I might a well get the door operating.
The configuration of the rooms is such that replacement with a standard door will not work. (Hey, I only bought the place, I didn't design it.)
Long ago I saw a TV piece on "Ask These Four Idiots" about repairing pocket doors. Of course I didn't videotape it (gives you an idea about how long ago this was). I'm looking for that piece. Anybody have any idea on where to findit, or a link o it.
I am separately Googling for material on pocket door repair.
If any body has already got some URL cites to sites dealing with pocket door repair, I dappreciate it if you would share those with me.
Thanks.
