Can I use accordion doors in an arched doorway?
My acquaintance wants to close off part of her apartment for privacy when company comes. She asked me to investigate accordion doors for her, for use in a doorway which has no door. I did, and found some movables sites, but she has an arched doorway, and I do not think one can install the track from wall to wall without having a full-length in a beeline top to attach to. I think drapes, which take less weight, can be used instead, with a curtain rod across the top, just under the arch.
Can accordion doors be used in an arched doorway?
Characterize as about this........the center of the arch is longer to the floor than the sides. How will you retract the long section without it bending on the bottom? You have the same can of worms with drapes.
Yes, you need a straight track.
She could hang a rod on the private side above the arch and draw them across as necessary. There are clear rods, but they are commonly for panels that don't move, though.
Does she need to cover the whole opening? Moveable screens could be placed across the opening but the area above to the prime top would be open. The screens would then be stored off to the side when not in use.
What do I use to lubricate and moisten material-backed teak accordion doors?
I've already tempered to teak oil but it didn't seem to do much except improve the appearance of the teak.
The doors work very hard and have broken twice, so I'm really looking for something to get somewhere them run smoothly and to keep the backing moist so it doesn't dry out so much.
try some beeswax in the side grooves...
