I used a standard 1 3/8" hollow core oak for ours, cut it down to the proper height, used standard pocket door hardware and frame, also cut to size. Very light and easy rolling. I will see how it holds up, been in for about a year now.FWIW,Paul
How are you guys using pocket doors on buses with non-raised roofs (except for later models that have more headroom)? I'd love to have pocket doors, but I can't sacrifice the room to frame to get a straight surface. It seems like there's too much curve in the ceiling to mount some sort of track directly on it. Has anybody successfully installed a pocket door without framing down any? I seem to remember a while back somebody had a door that slid on drawer slides...David
I used full extension drawer slides on mine which is a piece of 3/4 inch plywood and covered all sides with laminate! No problem yet!
Here is a photo of our bathroom door. There is no wall on the bathroom side and a mirror is installed on the bathroom side. Jack
