Introduction

Sliding door wardrobes are an ideal solution for homeowners seeking to maximize usable space, particularly in rooms where every square foot counts. Unlike traditional hinged doors, sliding doors operate on a track and don’t require additional room to swing open, making them perfect for areas with limited space.

Whether used in custom closets or existing spaces, sliding doors combine functionality with space-saving benefits, offering a clean, modern look that complements any interior layout.

The Project

A great example of functional sliding door wardrobe design is this bypass closet door system installed in a bedroom in Dana Point, California. This system, which features CS Cavity Sliders TopMountTrack – Double and a pair of CS SofStops, was chosen to maximize space in a room where the closet is located beside the bed.

This installation highlights how the CS Cavity Sliders TopMountTrack – Double system delivers practical, space-saving solutions, especially in tight areas where every inch counts. The absence of a floor track further enhances the room's usability and modern appeal.

Project Highlights

Space Efficiency: With the closet positioned beside the bed, sliding doors offer the perfect solution to avoid the need for additional clearance space. The doors' lateral movement makes it easier to move around in a tight room layout.

Lack of Floor Track: The absence of a floor track enhances both functionality and aesthetics. This design eliminates potential tripping hazards and ensures a seamless, clean look while still providing robust support through the top-mounted track system.

Weight: Despite the doors weighing approximately 140 pounds, the CS Cavity Sliders TopMountTrack system, equipped with ball-bearing rollers, allows them to glide effortlessly with minimal effort.

Soft-Closing Mechanism: The CS SofStop ensures a controlled and quiet close, preventing slamming and prolonging the life of the doors and track system.
