We had double doors on the closets at our last house. I believe they were 36". I prefer them over the bifold doors we have now. As long as there is space in the room so you're not opening them into furniture, or having to side-step anything to move I would go for the double doors.

I have a picture from our listing, but it doesn't show it with furniture in the room too.

If you have 36" clearance in front of the doors to open them at least to 90-degrees or somewhat past, you should be fine.

The secret to not hating bifold doors is to buy good quality door panels and hardware. Johnson Hardware is regularly recommended as the choice for bifold door hardware.

I have replaced a couple sets of door hardware in my house with their products.

Yes, Johnson is the company that makes full access hardware for bifold doors---- it swings the bifold doors on a pivot so that they open much wider than conventional bifold doors.

Would double doors on barn style hardware appeal to you more than regular sliding doors? That is another option and they have some great looking hardware. Here are some really pretty bamboo and glass doors set up that way.
