For me, if I ask for an unpopular opinion and you say something about pineapple on pizza I’m going to assume you have no personality.

    Im imagining some of my house mates over the years and the inconsiderate nature in which they closed doors in the middle of the night. It’d be nice if that didn’t have to be a concern. No idea what could be done, but so many nights it effected my sleep. Its my biggest pet peeve.

      Perhaps a sliding door with a cushion or something like it on each side, making it sound less if slammed open? Or a door closer arm would do the trick.

        Sliding doors punish door slammer by rolling back open. At least, all the interior pocket doors I’ve experienced. Makes for a good habit correction prpgram

          We are moving soon and need to add a wall with a door. I’m considering a sliding door. Do you have any experience regarding their soundproofness?

            Sorry, I was never really in a situation to judge soundproofness. They were open when we were boisterous, closed when empty

            I’m not who you asked but I’ve worked as a carpenter in the past; both types of doors can be soundproofed, it depends more on the surrounding doorframe/wall and weather the door itself has a solid core (quieter, but more $) or not.
