DIY sliding door

This is one of the biggest DIY project I ever made, a sliding door between the entrance and the playroom. It took me two days to complete but it totally worth it! Now, I can hide the playroom mess easily when someone knock the door! The door was build with a wood frame and plywood panels. I used a curtain rod and caster to make it slide. You will find the detailed tutorial on Bob Vila.

A sliding door is a good solution is you want to separate spaces but have no room for a regular swing door. Or if your doorway has no standard dimensions.
You can adapt the sliding door dimensions to any room.

Goodness, your creativity knows no bounds... And in two days would be considered superfast by my standards.
