Modern Room Dividers from the Sliding Door Company

We've heard mixed reviews of the Sliding Door Company from lovers and haters. We've never used them ourselves, but we do think their website is a great resource for inspiration. Our recent post on pocket doors sent us looking for modern alternatives, and this company offers a few ideas...

Using frosted glass doors divides a large space without blocking light from the windows.

If you need to add more privacy to a loft space at the top of the stairs, sliding doors can partition the area without walling it off completely.

Locations can be found throughout the US (read the AT:LA review here). The Sliding Door Company's Chicago showroom is located at 221 W. Ohio Street in Chicago.

Pricing? The Sliding Door Company quoted us $10,000 on a 3-panel unit for a 8' x 9' wall.

Yes, the pricing tended to be on the high side of things. But what struck me more than anything else about their NYC showroom was the SLEAZE factor. I really felt like I was in one of those Times Square electronic stores with the heavy sales tactics and the gum-popping blase attitude.

The above information regarding pricing is absolutely false. A 3-panel system for an 8ft x 9ft wall will run approx. $2,400.00--The Sliding Door Company offers a very affordable solution with the highest quality materials!

I used this modern room divider wall system for my studio apartment

This product is a great alternative to the other types of wall systems that cost thousands of dollars more!
