pocket doors

Wall-hiding room dividers

Pocket doors are sliding doors that disappear into a compartment in the adjacent wall when opened, rather than swinging on hinges.

They save floor space in tight areas like bathrooms or closets: We installed pocket doors between the kitchen and dining room.

The name comes from the door sliding into the wall as if into a pocket.
