    Just ready to go ahead with plastering the inside of my selfbuild,

    I've been thinking about fitting a sliding door to the main bedroom ensuite, its a 4" block wall so it would be sliding on bedroom side.

    I've had a look at systems ,the likes of hendersons etc and dont see a problem in that area but I'd like opinions from anyone who has done this or seen it done.

    The main things I'm intersted in are
    -Sealing, is it going to cause draughts in the bedroom due to not being as airtight as a conventional door
    -Finish, could I leave the door slide outside skirting and have a frame in the doorway protruding etc

    Any ideas/opinions?

    Doesn't it depend on how airtight the two rooms are, i couldn't imagine a small ensuite would make a huge differance, personally if going for that type of setup I would go for a frosted glass door as timber would look dated, I have sliding doors in my kitchen but I built the stud around them,
