In the majority of projects, sliding walls can be specified either when space is tight, or when a floorplan needs more flexibility than the permanence of a stud wall. Wardrobes and other storage systems, for example, need enough access space to allow for the curve of a swinging door, plus additional standing room. But sliding doors can solve the spatial dilemma by removing the door’s opening curve completely.
