Rocket Door Frames Pocket Door Kits

A sliding pocket door is a door that slides back into a pocket in the wall. The door is top hung which means it leaves the floor free of obstructions. Rather than a sliding door which is surface mounted and when open slides across a wall, a pocket door disappears out of view. Pocket doors allow you to save space. Usable floor space is freed up by using a sliding pocket door instead of a hinged door, and unlike a surface mounted sliding door you don’t lose wall space either.

Single pocket doors are perfect for en-suites, bathrooms, cloakrooms, toilet doors, pantries, doors into kitchens, utility areas, and many other applications.

Our single pocket door kit is easy to assemble and install. Unlike other pocket door kits at a similar price, the Rocket Pocket Kit includes a track with runners and galvanised steel horizontals and vertical that assemble together to create a complete pocket door frame. This is important because the pocket replaces the studwork in your wall so you want it to be rigid and robust. Many other pocket door kits on the market are simply a track and a couple of wooden uprights.

The single pocket door kits can be easily combined to create a double pocket door. So if you are after a double pocket door kit all you need to do is buy two singles!

Double pocket doors are an ideal way to divide off an open plan space and great for using as a room divider between a kitchen and dining room or a sitting room and dining room. Another great use for a double pocket door is in the bedroom as a walk in wardrobe.
