Closet "doors" finally


I got the closet doors - which are actually sliding panels - up in the master bedroom yesterday. For you Ikea fans, these are Kvartal. At the outset, it looked complicated, as the directions were 13 pages long, and in true Ikea fashion, had no words - just pictures. However, once I looked at all the parts & figured out the general principal, it was actually very easy. The only bummer is that we under-bought by three parts for the guest room. Fortunately, we have a friend driving up from SoCal Thursday and she is going to stop and get them for us. Then, we can be done with the closets.


I like the panels. They look really nice and they work pretty well. Maybe not as easy as curtains or real doors, but they work fine & the price to look ratio is great. The aluminum & glass doors we wanted were $1200 a closet; these panels were about $75 a closet. We might get the aluminum & glass doors someday, but for now, these work/look just fine.
