How to make your own hands the doors of the compartment: both the cabinet and the partition
Convenience door-coupe it is difficult to overestimate.
Virtually without taking up space, they solve many planning problems and, of course, decorate the interior. In this case, the sliding door system was used to build a built-in wardrobe in the attic. At the same time one of the door leaves was to become the door between the bedroom and the bathroom. Is it possible? Of course! Modern "coupe" systems allow you to order profiles and guides to individual sizes to within a millimeter.
Witty and simple
The swing door would "eat" too much space in the already small loft space, so the sliding door seems to be a fully justified solution. Look at the photo: here, roughly speaking, just lengthened the facade of the built-in wardrobe compartment into one section. Naturally, we checked that its width was not just the doorway. Well and as a stuffing of a case used high-grade rack: a cover, a bottom, sidewalls, a back wall, regiments - all as it is necessary.

Mounting guides
1. We measured the height of the niche at three points. In the absence of a laser tape measure, two combined folding meters were used.
2. Sawed on the size of the floor and ceiling guides.
3. Important: all self-executed cuts must be cleaned from the burrs.
4. At a distance of about 10 cm from the ends, holes were marked for attaching the guides to the floor and ceiling ...
5 ... and then drilled them with a metal drill.
6. From the underside of the guide, the chamfer was chamfered from the holes by the countersink, so that the guide subsequently attached the entire surface to the ceiling or floor.
7. The so-called metal dowels for gypsum board were screwed into the ceiling using a cordless screwdriver.
8. To fix the ceiling guide used screws that screwed into the dowels.
Assembling door leaves
PROGRESS
1. On the perimeter of the panel-filler door leaf (call it "panel") fixed the rubber edge. It serves as a sealant and at the same time soundproofing.
2. The profiles, made according to individual sizes, were put on "panels". (Sometimes you may need a light hammer blow through the gasket.)
Z.Tak of profiles and "panels" is mounted sliding door entirely.
4. Profiles were connected with screws - one in each corner. And on the lower corners it is necessary to install one more roller.
5. The roller is immediately fixed with a fixing screw. With the help of the second screw, the height of the rollers can be adjusted later.
6. On the upper corners of the sliding doors set the guide rollers. They ensure the accurate entry of doors into the ceiling guide.
7. Drilled holes in the profiles were closed with a protective strip, which performs only an aesthetic function.
8. On the long sides of the doors glued the brush seal. It prevents dust from entering the cabinet and direct contact between the door profiles.
Just like pizza order
To deal with the arrangement, today you do not even have to leave the house - all purchases are made on the Internet. Some firms specializing in the manufacture of sliding doors, offer to configure the building kits with the help of online services and mobile applications. Materials for filling profiles can be selected from a wide range of products. Floor and ceiling guides, door profiles you will get ready, the right size. Well, all subsequent operations with some skills are easy to perform on their own.
Please note: eccentric couplers should not be screwed with a cordless screwdriver, but only by hand. Otherwise, the hardware may break. By the way, such a connection is detachable, if necessary, the rack can be dismantled at any time.
Door installation
1. To start, the ready-made sliding door was freely brought from one end of the niche into the track of the ceiling guide.
2. Lay the floor guide and set the door to it. Then, with the help of the building level, the door was leveled so that it was absolutely vertical.
Z. Marked the position of the floor guide under the aligned door, pasting a strip of adhesive tape on the laminate. For this, short pieces are enough.
4. Carefully repeated all the steps at the other end of the niche.
5. Carefully removed the door and pasted on the underside of the floor guide double-sided adhesive tape.
7. After the door has been reinstalled, align it with the adjusting screws on both rollers.
6. Again laid the floor guide and in parts removed the protective tape of the tape. Tightly pushed the rail to the floor.
8. Guide rollers at the upper end also require adjustment so that the door does not fall out of the guide.

Installation of the "filling" of the cabinet
1. In the niche, a rack frame without a lid was installed. The smoothness was adjusted with the adjusting screws.
2. The lid was laid on the side and rear walls.
Z. With eccentric ties, the lid and side walls were connected.
4. Before mounting the middle shelves, both rod holders were fixed.
5. Thanks to the insertable holders, the shelves can be placed at any convenient height.
6. In the end, we installed the hangers for the hangers in pre-reinforced holders.
