Question Has anyone added a sliding door instead of the bedroom curtain?

Anyone out there add a sliding door to their trailer? We have the 287BHSW and it has a curtain dividing the bedroom from the rest of the trailer.
I've been thinking of switching it to an actual sliding door or panel.

Anyone tried?

I don't have room for a slider but was thinking about a BiFold on one of my tent ends.

Mine came with a pocket door into the bath. It may be rather involved depending what has to be relocated.

Yes, very involved. You're probably going to have to tear down part of a wall to install the track. Wall thickness may also be a problem not to mention any hidden wiring or plumbing.

How about an accordion style door? You can strap it in the open position when traveling to prevent it from flopping around.

It would definitely have to be outside of the wall. The wall is just over an inch think there, no room for a pocket door. I was thinking a track mounted to the ceiling or the like.

The accordion is an idea too, it's a bit better than a curtain
