Does A Stroll-In Closet Want A Door?

My contractor’s family has been plagued with flu this week, so actually nothing has gotten carried out on our bedroom-turned-closet and laundry room but. Ugh. It’s simply that point of 12 months, I suppose. However I assume that’s good in a method as a result of it’s given me a bit of additional time to suppose by means of some particulars.

There’s one element particularly that I’d like to implement, and whereas it appears wonderful in my thoughts, I’m feeling a bit insecure about shifting ahead on it. Specifically, I wish to take away the door to the longer term closet fully. In order that begs the query…does a walk-in closet really want a door?

Let me clarify my thought course of. As , I’m within the strategy of turning every thing previous the music room cased opening into our bed room suite. The hallway will now be a form of anteroom that’s open to the bed room, and the previous visitor bed room shall be our closet and laundry room combo. The doorways to the hallway toilet will ultimately be relocated in order that the lavatory is accessible by way of a extra public space of the home and never by means of our bed room suite.

Earlier than all of this development began, there have been two very separate bedrooms, every with its personal pocket door.

After which I made a decision that I needed the doorway that separated the bed room from the hallway fully gone (principally for Matt’s profit as a result of that allowed a further 12 inches of width for him to maneuver his wheelchair into the bed room with ease). So after that doorway was fully eliminated, it regarded like this…

Till a number of days in the past, my plan was to maintain the present pocket door on the closet/laundry space. As I shared a number of days in the past, I do plan so as to add a little bit of a visible separation between the hallway and the bed room through the use of trim on the partitions and ceiling in that little slim space resulting in the precise bed room. That method, the 2 areas will be distinct may even being broad open to one another.

I’m planning on doing one thing like this, solely with out the arched prime, and with the trim going all the best way to the ceiling.

However I’ve been pondering that I’d like to create some continuity between the 2 rooms by having an identical entrance into the closet. And the best way that I’d do that may be to take away the door fully and take the opening all the best way as much as the ceiling, identical to we did on the bed room.

Now clearly, the closet doesn’t have a bit of hallway-type factor main into that room, however I may definitely create that look with the cupboards that I construct to create the closet. I’ve seen this a thousand instances, and but, once I tried in search of an instance to indicate y’all, I couldn’t discover precisely what I used to be speaking about. So I attempted to create a mock-up to indicate you. It’s not superb, but it surely’ll need to do. Hopefully you should utilize your inventive eye to see what I’m speaking about.

However principally, I’d construct the cupboards proper on the fringe of the opening between the closet and the hallway, after which the perimeters of these cupboards would create the doorway that I’d trim out precisely like I’d trim out the doorway to the bed room. And identical to the bed room doesn’t have a separate door on it, neither would the closet have a separate door on it.

Now clearly, it is a horrible mock-up, however I hope it at the very least conveys my thought. I don’t plan on having cupboards that deep. Mine will solely be 14 inches deep. And I don’t plan on having doorways on mine, though I’ll have fairly a number of drawers. And the perimeters of the cupboards could be trimmed out precisely like the doorway to the bed room. The distinction is that the doorway to the bed room is longer, so it would have a grander look to it. And because it’s seen instantly from the brand new bed room suite doorways (i.e., the doorways I put in on the cased opening between the music room and hallway), the bed room (particularly the headboard wall) would be the characteristic as soon as an individual enters the bed room suite. However I feel having related entrances to every space will add continuity to the separate areas of the bed room suite.

I do not know if any of that is sensible, and I do not know if that image even conveys what’s in my thoughts. It makes good sense to me, however which may be as a result of I can see clearly what’s in my thoughts. 😀

Additionally, whereas the closet wouldn’t have a door on it, I’d add a door (a 15-lite pocket door) between the closet and the laundry space. Simply as a reminder, the laundry space would be the finish of the room the place the window is.

So these two areas could be separated from one another with a pocket door whereas the closet from the hallway wouldn’t have a door. As an alternative, the opening into the closet would go all the best way as much as the ceiling, and the perimeters of the closets that kind the doorway could be trimmed out the identical method that the slim entrance into the bed room is trimmed out.

Hopefully that is sensible. However even when it doesn’t, the primary challenge right here is…

Is it loopy to have a walk-in closet that doesn’t have a door on it?
