do people think i'm made of money????!!!!!!

as almost every conversation is starting now-a-days...

in this economy, i've taken on a roommate to help me make ends meet. i've given the roommate the family room, private entrance and all sorts of good stuff... ok... the space that "belongs" to the roommate isn't exactly private... so i'm putting up doors to close off the space.

home depot wants about $700
lowes wants the same

so i called a recommended handyman in my 'hood... he just emailed me his quote:

$750!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is that just to install?

Maybe you should just get a shoji screen! Chat Icon

or
this
It seesm easy to DIY since it is just a track that insalls on top. I doesn't lock though, if that is an issue.

You could probably also get some other kind of closet door on a track from Home Depot & DIY, so you don't have to pay shipping.

Do you have nice feet??? Maybe that Craigslist contact will make a deal with ya Chat Icon
That sounds ridiculous for an easy project like that - I agree with the closet track system if that works for you?

You'd think they'd be so hungry for work in this dead economy that they'd lower their prices a little!
