Top 10 Styles of Bedroom Sliding Doors

1. Mirror Bifold door - These pretty bedroom sliding doors are hinged in four places, making each a foldable region. They are an extremely popular choice for coatroom closet doors. At their best they are stylish and functional; at their worst they can resemble high school lockers.

2. Mirror Bypass - These are positioned at different depths so that one slides over the other door. They are great space savers and attractive as well. At their best they save space and look great; at their worst their pain in the track.

3. Wall Slide - These look like traditional paper, Asian style, bedroom sliding doors but only have one panel that is exposed, track and all, to the exterior of the room. The door track extends well beyond the opening so that when you slide the door back its hangs on its frame like a large piece of oriental art. Much attention is paid to the design and detail of these doors so that the exposed skeleton only adds to the beauty of the room; Quite a refreshing new style.

4. Markerdoor™ Closet - A bi-fold covered in marker board for the amusement and creative encouragement of your child's imagination. These doors look clean and playful. Any child would love to have them. Who doesn't want to write on the walls?

5. French - Normally these doors pivot on hinges but they have been modified to slide. They give you the look of a French door with the space saving feature of a sliding door.

6. Sliding glass doors - usually used as separators between an interior room, like a kitchen and an exterior room, like a porch; stickers optional.

7. Arcadia - a popular style of sliding door. These doors are basically just a bypass door made out of glass. There may be a few technical differences but logically they work the same, sometimes called a patio door when they open to the outside.

8. Bypass - the same as mirror bypass doors, without the reflective bits.

9. Louvered or shuttered doors are commonly installed for use with storage closets, utility rooms and pantries. They usually have two that bend inward when you open them, like a cat's hind leg, and have the look of functional shutters.

10. Pocket - These bedroom sliding doors are used mostly for spaces that won't fit a hinged door. These slide into the interior of the wall and are sometimes difficult to pull back out if you don't know how to work the little flap of metal that makes up the handle.
