Easy Calculators for Accurate Pocket Planning
There’s nothing worse than making an error when planning a detail like door pocket size. Fixing it involves both construction costs and delays, right when your project should be finishing up.
These two calculators were developed back in 2014 to help architects and designers to plan the integration of our doors into their projects. Since then, they’ve helped thousands of customers save time and trouble – and only Dynamic has them.
There’s no tables to consult; the calculators give you most of the values you need.
The Right-Angle Pocket Calculator
If you’re pressed for time, this tool can be a lifesaver. It accurately delivers the pocket door width (value “C” in the diagram) and the minimum clearance (“B”) for every side folding door we carry.
Based on a formula developed by our in-house engineer, this calculator solves a complex equation instantly.

Help With Project Details Is All Part of the Package
If your pocket is too small, your door won’t fit. If it’s too larger, you’ve wasted space that could be better allocated to the secured area.
No matter how good you are at math, it’s always a good idea to verify your numbers. Ask our expert Customer Support team to double check for you.
