The pocket door is a piece of joinery whose main characteristic lies in its side opening. The integration of the joinery into the wall frees up an area where it is possible to hang frames, arrange furniture or even create storage spaces.
Its side opening, requiring no clearance space, is practical for people using a wheelchair. It is preferable to consider installing a pocket door as part of creating a partition, because the technical specificities of the installation will be taken into account from the design stage.
