Oh at this stage I think I'm stalking you I saw your board the other day about the configuration of your master/WIR/en suite. My other consideration is - is it much cheaper, even through the builder (with their markups) to do double hinged doors now than in a few years down the track if i move in or end up trying to sell? Or is it simpel to add double hinged doors to an opening? I suppose this wont bring any more rent or prospective tenants in for my rental versus not? So this is mainly a long term resale consideration? Or do you think tenants would look at this? Probably not a deal breaker? I assume then I could swing open both doors and still achieve that open look? The option then to enclose the room is there? I would almost certianly take the double hinged versus single for that price. Or I can go single hinged door and brickwork - $750, or double hinged doors for $950. So it rolls to the side of the brickwork when retracted. I have the option to do a single slider (with brickwork) - of the exposed type where you have the track/little box thing exposed on the side of the wall. That said anyone got a good double slider picture to illustrate what it looks like - seems to be very popular here and wouldn't mind checking out for future builds. Sorry Joker, but as previously mentioned there is no room for cavity sliders - not done by builder out of maintenance issue fears? So can't explore this option. I'll clarify what the builder meant by they don't do sliding doors as being cavity versus those that sit visible and don't retract into a wall.but rather to the side/adjacent to it. With the double sliding doors, so basically like an alfresco with dual sliding doors, so both meet and lock together? So by double sliders it's essentially two sliders meeting together and sliding outwards away from one another? DO these sit on a track/outside visibly, or go into the relevant wall cavities when opened? so perhaps spending the least and letting tenants use it as an open theatre (Tough luck) or some sort of small entertaining room would work if it saves you $1k you wouldn't recoup in higher rent necessarily? the plan is 'always' to keep and hold forever and just rent it out. It's all so hard sometimes trying to take into consideration the potential to resale in 5-10 years if you have to move on. Or were all the posters above referring to cavity - good points noted. they sit like a seperate block on track and just pull over to close? so I'm not sure if he's confused? Cavity sliding doors go into the wall don't they? Whereas aren't you all referring to getting the slider doors that sit visible when you pull them back i.e. now I thought in the past they said they could do the rolling doors if i wanted to shut off the ensuite instead of doors etc. The builders come back and said they don't do cavity sliding doors due to too many maintenance issues down the track. These all look lovely and do the trick but I guess one thing the agent did have in his argument was that the lack of doors means less things for a tenant or kids to break. gf suggested french doors as see through. Beazley, why not 820 doors x 2? Yeah I like the idea of nice doors that can open widely, you'd want the open space to be visible.
