Home DIY Pro Unveils Stunning Fluted Sliding Door with Integrated Mirror
DIY Enthusiast Transforms Space with Elegant Fluted Sliding Door A recent online video by DIY creator Tiffany, known as @creatiffdiy, has captured the attention of home improvement enthusiasts by demonstrating the construction of a stylish fluted sliding door with an integrated mirror. The comprehensive tutorial showcases Tiffany's methodical approach to transforming a standard doorway into a modern design feature. The project began with a 3/4-inch plywood base, cut to size and meticulously finished with edge banding for a smooth appearance. Tiffany then applied individual fluted trim pieces, securing them with adhesive and a pin nailer, a process she noted required careful alignment due to some "wonky" pieces. "A book is a pretty unconventional spacer, but it definitely worked in a pinch," she remarked, highlighting her resourceful problem-solving. Installation of the sliding hardware presented its own set of challenges, requiring modifications to the standard kit. Tiffany explained, "I mounted the track directly to the back of the door instead of insetting it, which gave me the clearance that I needed around the trim." She also adapted the bottom wheel placement, attaching them to a 1x2 piece on the door's back to ensure proper function with the floor guide. The finished door, painted to match the room's aesthetic, features a striking fluted design, further elevated by a full-length arched mirror. Tiffany concluded, "It looks beautiful with just the fluting, but the mirror kind of makes it perfect." The project has resonated with many, with comments like "I see a woman with an engineer mind. 😍" and "What was the ballpark cost for this? It turned out Fantastic! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻❤️" reflecting the audience's admiration and interest in replicating the design.
