We have pocket doors on both our bathrooms. I hate them but for the time being, I am stuck with them. What I dislike the most is that there is no handle on them that is functional (see picture - it is not easy to get a good grasp on that). As a result there are fingerprints all over the door.

Is it okay to put a handle of some sort on the door? I know that would prevent it from "closing" all the way but it seems like the way we have it now is just not functional. And if a handle would be appropriate, what would you suggest?

Would love some ideas!
