I would suggest posting some pictures and measurements. The sink area of my bathroom has no door but there is a door to the toilet-shower room. Is this your situation or is there no door for the entire bathroom?

The doorway is probably not framed. Maybe you can purchase a 6 panel door from HD or Lowes. Then have one of their installers frame the opening and install the door.

Is there any reason you can't install a normal swing door? Have you had an inspection, or could you still ask that? photo?

Do you know what the doorway measurement is so we could tell you if a standard door would fit the opening? And what about swing, would door interfere with anything when open?

My mom took the door off in her master bath. It opened to block half the only window in that room and she felt cramped with it closed. When she wanted to be assured privacy, she closed the bedroom door. When she sold her house and moved to senior living, I know it was in the garage as we were helping her empty her house and don't remember putting it back on for her ;0)

sorry for the dark images, when i saw the place they had no electricity on and i forgot to take pictures the last few times i walked through. the sink is on the outside of the door and bathroom is to the right of the sink.

Its a pretty sink area Those generally do not have a door on them, and are left open to the bedroom. Where does the pocket door go to, that I can see to the left of the sink?

that pocket door goes to the closet and there is no door to the sink area either that's all open

That's a fairly typical bathroom style that was done quite a bit in the 1970's and 1980's. The sink and dressing area are open to the bedroom and the toilet and shower are behind closed doors.

Most people just deal with it because they don't require privacy when using the sink. I guess it could be problematic if people have very different sleep patterns but I would imagine that the early person might wind up using a different bathroom. However, many people live with that configuration without issues.

That is a challenging space! Are you sure a pocket door isnt possible? I almost wonder if One used to be there.

the only other thing I can think of is narrow French doors. Like you might see on a small closet. opening outwards. A full sized outward swing would hit people at the sink. But smaller french doors might be ok.

i hope someone more experienced with spurs can help you better than I can!

I think you would need to provide a to scale diagram with measurements for meaningful input.

Theoretically it is possible to frame a door and have a custom door made in any size. Issue is whether the swing of the door would block other areas of the room. When I remodeled, I changed the direction of my swing door so that it swing out instead of into the bedroom but that was possible because the door then swing to the end of a closet which wasn't functional space anyway.

There are bifold doors and accordion doors which of course are less than ideal of course but would afford privacy from view. There would be full length "saloon style" doors which would afford visual privacy.

What is your specific issue in terms of wanting a door? Lots of people don't bother actually closing the bathroom door in their master bath. It doesn't appear as if there is a view to the toilet from the master bedroom.

A pocket door on the closet and no door to the toilet/shower makes me think someone moved things around at some point, or did a bad flip. I would have a door put on the toilet/shower area, and leave the sink area open since you have vaulted ceilings there. It will have to swing out into the sink area, but that's your only option. I would use a frosted glass door to try to get some light from the window, and to feel less closed in with such a small space. If you haven't closed on the house yet, get a full home inspection so you don't end up with a lot of surprises.

My specific issue in terms of wanting a door is because if me and my boyfriend are both getting ready for work in the morning we have enough respect for eachother to give eachother their privacy, so I'm not brushing my teeth while in the corner of my eye i can see him at the toilet.

The doorway appears to have a frame. My first choice would be a regular hinged door, swinging outward, if there's space to do that without obstructing the sink -- you could use a hinge limiter to keep from hitting somebody standing there, if need be. Second choice would be to use a bifold closet-style door, which can be left open all the way most of the time, but closed when the facilities are in use.

You can get pretty cute ones now, with Shaker-style panels, or frosted glass, or whatever.

Sounds like you might be hoping for two doors - one leading into the sink area from the bedroom and another one into the toilet/shower area. For the first, do you have enough "swing" room for a standard door to be installed as suggested above? If not, it's possible to take apart bifold doors and add hinges on the outer sides to make narrow French style doors with less swing area if you're handy or have help. They're available in many sizes and configurations of panels/louvers/glass. Check out Pinecroft bifold doors on Home Depot.

For the toilet/shower area, consider saloon or cafe doors/shutters (not full length) . We had a similar set up for a toilet area once, where the cafe doors covered about the middle two thirds of the vertical opening. Since they were each just half the width of the opening, they didn't swing in or out far enough to cause a problem. We didn't have a shower there in our case, so I'm not sure if you'd have enough vertical coverage for either situation - being seated on the toilet or standing in front of the shower. But it would be easy enough to mock that up with cardboard to find out.

That doorway into the toilet/shower room looks so narrow! If you find that it is too narrow to work well for a door, look at these door hinges. It would work if there is room in the hallway to the right or left of the door opening for the door to swing up against the wall. Or you could use them with a narrow double door if you don't have room for the swing of a normal door. This would allow you to have a set of narrow French doors that can close all the way and then swing outward and lay against the wall outside the bathroom, like shutters on either side of the opening. The doors get out of the way without blocking the hallway, either. See the diagram here. You use something called a parliament hinge or wide throw hinge to make this happen. You could also do this with just a single full door if you have enough wall space outside of this bathroom for the whole door to lay out of the way against the wall. Parliament Hinges.

Unlike the regular door and the folding door, these hinges clear the entire entrance way once the door is open, so you do not lose any more width of the entry to space for the door to hang. If you do not have any light switches outside of the bathroom doorway, it will be easy to do because I agree with acm that it looks like you have a wooden door jamb already in place. If we are right, you just need to measure for the door opening and have a door made to fit (or two narrow doors) and buy the special hinges. If you are having one door, then a little cutting for the door latch will be needed into the door jamb, and into the doors themselves if you have the french style double door done. Then the hinges are attached and your door(s) hung. It is a handyman job. If you do have a light switch and do want double doors, you can look into having that switch relocated.

I had the same issue. Solved it by installing an "accordion" door, similar to what's in an RV and available at all the Big Box stores. It was easy to install and works great! https://www.homedepot.com/b/Doors-Windows-Interior-Closet-Doors-Accordion-Doors/N-5yc1vZc5ii

(DH and I rented an air bnb where you'd sit on the toilet and lock eyes with the person in bed. That's way too much intimacy even after 30 years of marriage! Funny thing is, it was a lovely room in a beautifully decorated home, and there was a doorway framed between bed and bath area that would have been just fine, if an actual door had been there!)

Good luck, that is a problem that needs fixing. A tension rod and a long curtain could be a stopgap measure until you get a permanent solution.

Not a big deal. The opening almost has to be at least 24" wide (because of code at the time the house was built).

I would want an outswing regular swing door on there. Either buy just a door (which will require mortising the jamb & door for hinges) or, easier, tear out the existing jambs & install a prehung door. Maybe a door with obscuring glazing to prevent whamming someone when they exit? Your call on that.

Tension rod & curtain like Nickel suggested for a temporary fix.
