POCKET DOOR | How I built a pocket door in my van

I built a wall between the van's cab and my home area because:

🔪 S A F E T Y ! ! ! | Someone broke into my van in the middle of the night this February. The divider wall gave me enough time to wake up and grab my taser before the intruder figured out how to access the house. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

🥵 T E M P E R A T U R E | The wall makes a MASSSSIVE difference in heat (or cold 🥶) since the house is insulated but the cab isn’t. On hot days, with the pocket door shut, the house is normally 20° cooler than the cab. 🏆 And vice versa on cold days.

↔️ S E P E R A T I O N | I like to feel like I’m in my home, not in a car. Blocking off the cab immediately feels more cozy. 🕯

Holler with any questions!

Love the arch in your pocket door. It gives your van a cozy, woodlands feeling, like a magical fairy house. :)

Nice build!! Why the steel beam? Oh also did you video the build of your Door way?
