Featured Project – Anthony’s Runway 84

When the World famous Anthony’s Runway 84 decided to close, completely reinvent itself, and reopen, they reached out to The Sliding Door Company, of course!

We love working with restaurants that understand flex space as an important way to turn tables, host events, and get a great return on investment! 

Anthony’s chose our dividers for their private dining and special events room. Open or closed you can still see the incredible decor, but find privacy in a way that makes other patrons interested and separated. Their upgrade has been featured in many prestigious publications for their stunning new look.

The Sliding Door Company has worked with many restaurants over the years seeking delineated and unique space options even pre-Covid. But in our post-pandemic world, it’s even more crucial that you make your floor plan work. 

A slow night could look busy and full with a wall partition to hide extra seating.

A busy night can still have an intimate feel for a private party.

The creative solutions we offer are in high demand now and can certainly set your restaurant apart.

With no major construction and low to no downtime, we can install a great solution for you. Reach out to learn more!

Wall Slide Doors vs. Pocket Doors

When it comes to choosing the right door for your home, there are a variety of options available. Two popular choices are wall slide doors and pocket doors. While both are sliding doors, wall slide doors have several advantages over pocket doors. In this blog, we’ll explore why wall slide doors are better than pocket doors.

Space Efficiency

One of the primary benefits of wall slide doors is that they are incredibly space-efficient. Unlike pocket doors, which require a recessed wall cavity to slide into, wall slide doors can be installed directly into the wall. This means that you can make the most of the available floor space without having to worry about accommodating a pocket door cavity.

Easy Installation

Wall slide doors are also much easier to install than pocket doors. Pocket doors require a lot of planning and preparation, as well as precise measurements and cutting to ensure that the pocket cavity is properly sized and aligned. Wall slide doors, on the other hand, can be installed with minimal preparation, and they don’t require the same level of precision to ensure a smooth and effortless sliding motion.

Improved Accessibility

Another advantage of wall slide doors is that they are more accessible than pocket doors. Pocket doors are designed to slide into the wall, which can make them difficult to access if they are not installed properly. Wall slide doors, on the other hand, slide on tracks, making them much easier to open and close.

More Design Options

Finally, wall slide doors offer more design options than pocket doors. Wall slide doors can also be customized to fit any size or style, making them an ideal choice for homeowners who want a door that complements their existing décor.

In conclusion, wall slide doors offer several advantages over pocket doors. They are space-efficient, easy to install, accessible, and provide more design options. If you are considering a new sliding door for your home, it’s worth considering a wall slide door to see if it is the right choice for your needs. The Sliding Door Company offers a wide array of unique styles and plans for wall slide doors and with all our beautiful door options, you won’t want to hide them the way you would a pocket door!
