We have a front loader washer and dryer in a laundry room/closet that opens onto a hallway. We have these doors but even when they are slid back all the way we cannot open the washer and dryer doors very far. If we put a non-folding door in it will completely block the hallway when open. I am looking for a less expensive option than an exterior sliding door and something nicer than a drape. Any and al thoughts are welcome.
