"*******BUYER BEWARE*******I’m posting this simply as a BUYER BEWARE as our experience with Window King was definitely SHADY. We had been through an exhaustive replacement window search, from the 3-hour meetings to the high-pressure sales tactics. We were referred to the Window King by a reputable website that provides helpful information and window reviews. We thought we had finally found the company to replace our windows…timely and informative meeting, no B.S. sales tactics, good product, and competitive price. We received a contract that evening for our review. We took the weekend to review its details and sent an email response first thing on Monday morning asking for some more details to be included specifically around the windows we were going to be buying like the glass package and its NFRC ratings, a general recap of installation (flashing, insulation, etc.) and to include what their lifetime labor warranty actually covers. Also, we had questions like what kind of caulking is used (during our initial meeting the salesman Mike was going to get back to us on that) and why does the contract say capping if necessary which to us seemed like it would mean that it was at the discretion of the installer. These all seemed very reasonable given we were replacing 19 windows. We heard from Mike (salesman) in text the next evening indicating he hadn’t forgotten “been crazy”. My response was simple “totally understand”. Unfortunately, a few more days went by with no response so that Friday I followed up in text only to be informed that Window King couldn’t (or wouldn’t) make any changes to the contract that I was looking for and they were going to “PASS” on our business. I asked for a discussion with the salesman with no response as well as sent an email that included the owner with no response. The experience left us wondering….if we would have moved forward were we going to get the windows we thought we were buying???? Would there have been shortcuts taken during the installation???? If there were issues exactly how would we have been covered by Window King’s warranty????"

Pocket doors are more expensive than standard pre-hung doors. While a standard interior door installation costs around $150 to $200, installing a pocket door can run from $1,000 to $3,500, especially on existing walls. The higher price is due to extra work like demolition and modifications. While more costly, installing pocket doors offers benefits like saving space and modern aesthetics that are worth the added expense.
To frame or retrofit a pocket door, you'd need to modify an existing wall to fit the door and its hardware. This process involves opening the wall, ensuring the door has space to slide, and adjusting any wiring or plumbing inside. After creating space, a new frame and track are installed so the door functions properly.
You can use some standard doors as pocket doors, but they must fit the required dimensions. The door has to slide smoothly into the wall cavity, so it must be the right size and thickness. Also, any existing hardware holes need to be adjusted or covered up to work correctly, increasing labor costs.
For a pocket door, you need enough wall space for the door to slide into. A standard 32-inch-wide door requires about 66 inches of wall space in total—including the doorway and the pocket. The wall you install it in should be at least four inches deep to fit the door's thickness.
Installing a pocket door usually takes about six to 12 hours. If your project requires extra work like wall modifications or electrical adjustments, it might take a couple of days. The exact time depends on your home's layout, the type of door you’re installing, and the complexity of the project.
Removing a pocket door involves more than just taking down the door. You'll likely need to open up the wall to access the door mechanism, adjust any wiring or plumbing inside, and then rebuild the wall afterward. Costs can range from $1,000 to $3,200, depending on how much work is needed.
