If you want a more trouble-free solution when maximizing interior space or creating a seamless transition from one room to the next, consider adding the knock-down pocket door frame from Quanex Custom Components to your design.

Pocket doors have been a part of residential design since the 1850s and are still popular today to maximize space and minimize clutter. Traditional pocket door frames are made of pine boards, which can warp. The knock down pocket door frame is made with steel reinforced uprights to provide more strength and rigidity to your frame and comes with #200 ball-bearing trolley wheels to prevent future callbacks. It also contains pine in the steel uprights to help with sheetrock installation. Where the traditional frames are all one piece and bulky, making shipping, storage, and handling challenging, knock-down pocket door frames offer a solution to this problem. A KD pocket door frame comes with a preassembled adjustable header and two steel reinforced legs for each side that fit together easily, making them easier to ship, store, and have on hand where needed.

At Quanex, we offer a step-by-step instruction video to help you install the KD pocket door frame. The KD pocket door frame kits come in four adjustable sizes, and the cut lines for door widths less than 3/0 are printed directly on the frame header for ease of adjustment.
