Clean Lines for a Refined Design
ENCRAFT Pocket Sliding Door Systems are designed as a space-saving solution for modern interiors and architectural openings. When the door is opened, the sash smoothly slides into a concealed pocket within the adjacent wall, creating a wide and unobstructed opening while making maximum use of the available floor space.
Pocket sliding doors are particularly suitable for rooms that are generally kept open but occasionally require privacy or separation. ENCRAFT Pocket Door Systems are available with different infill options and configurations, allowing the system to be adapted to a variety of opening sizes, design requirements, and installation conditions.
They are especially useful in spaces where there is insufficient clearance for conventional swinging or pivot doors, while the available wall arrangement may not accommodate a standard sliding door. ENCRAFT offers both single-panel and two-panel symmetrical configurations, providing greater flexibility for privacy, functionality, and architectural design.

Frequently asked questions
uPVC insulates far better and costs less for ordinary residential openings. Thermally broken aluminium is stronger, so it carries larger panels with slimmer frames.

Not if the profile is UV stabilised and lead-free, which ours are. Yellowing happens with cheap unstabilised profile or recycled material. We supply a written warranty against discolouration.
An acoustic laminated inner pane inside a double-glazed unit, with the two panes at different thicknesses and a wide cavity. Just as important, choose a casement or tilt-and-turn window rather than a slider, because the sash needs to compress onto its gaskets to seal.
Yes. We bend profile on a heated forming table from a site template, so semi-circular, segmental and elliptical heads are all possible, fixed or with an operable lower sash.
