Homeowners are typically disappointed with the long-term performance of their pocket doors. Misalignment occurs, gaps form, and doors become nonoperational.
In spite of hanging pocket doors level and plumb with lasers and the best technology, frames shrink and shift due to the drying of joists and studs. As a result, wheels need adjusting, doors need planing, and door units need to be completely re-installed.
"Finally, a system that allows me to offer my clients a fully adjustable pocket door frame! I have heard for years about pocket doors "settling" and finish carpenters being called back to try to "repair" their pocket doors. What I hear back is that they have had to rip the wall open, re-plumb the walls and reinstall the hardware. I can't imagine the cost to do all of this, PLUS having to re-plaster, re-drywall, re-paint, etc. Jim has a fantastic system!"
