Customer Reviews for JELD-WEN 36 in. x 80 in. Craftsman Desert Sand Painted Smooth Molded Composite Closet Bi-fold Door

Door is extremely light and thin, but it is hollow core, so it’s to be expected. The material is easily frayed on edge, but a coat of paint fixed this. Life hack, I saved 600 dollars on getting this and converting it from bifold to a French door for my pantry. I was quoted 800, this was a quarter of the cost and looks just as good.

Extremely bad quality

Exactly what i needed, and delivered significantly earlier than originally quoted. Easy to install.

Lightweight closet doors. Look great for a great price.

The quality is exactly what I expected.

Opened the boxes and the tops had separated from the core. I repaired them and hung them and they wouldn't line up. Measured the holes for the pivots, they were all over the place. I'm sure the holes are drilled in a jig but, quality control was poor. This is too bad because most Jeld-Wen products are normally very good.

Love the doors but both boxes had the hardware removed. Had to wait for Jeldwen to mail.

They look great in the bedrooms, I’m really happy I bought them.

Perfect fit I separated the two doors and made them French doors for my pantry.

From an ease-of-installation perspective, these doors are well designed. However, they're way too expensive in light of the materials used and shoddy quality of construction. They'd be a reasonable value if they were half the price.

Great look and good quality

For the price, excellent! Good quality for the money.

Dimensions are off

It’s a great door.

These doors were just what we were looking for at a reasonable price. Our opening was too short, so we trimmed off the bottoms (took off the hinges first). Then my husband refilled the bottom gap with wood cut to fit inside. Two coats of paint later, plus attaching the hinges and knobs, they were ready to hang. It's always fun (not) to get a pair of bifold doors hung evenly, and this was typical. We're very pleased with the value and the style.

Now I know why this door was so cheap. The picture shows that the side panels are equal width, but in reality two of them are half the width as the others. Oddly enough the two wide one were the ones hinged together, which seem backwards to me. I unhinged them and hung them the right way>

Looks great, great value. Easy to install.

While attempting to put the bottom pivot into the door, the bottom broke off and weakened the whole door. I created a replacement piece but when installing the sides were so compromised the glued assembly began to break free while on the wall.

Finish is not as nice as I expected it is primed but will need a light sanding and a bit of filler before painting. Not very much room to adjust size of door for old house. I had to make a new bottom frame to cut off 1 inch. This was stated in documentation (can cut 1/4 inch from each side) - but what to do !?

Doors were left on the street outside my building without any prior notice. I found out they were there from a neighbor.

Ordered this thinking that based on the price ($244!) this would be a high quality replacement. It is not. Just a typical hollow door (filled with styrofoam scraps), very cheaply made. Its about $100 worth of door, tops. Also, supposedly "trimmable" but yeah, only about an inch. So for my old home 77 inch door opening I had to cut off the bottom and then totally rebuild the guts to install it. Just cheaply made overpriced crap. The instructions say to put the pull knob in the center of the rail ... except there is NO rail at the appropriate height in this design of door, so I had to put the pull in the center of the panel (which is hollow, so thats a pain, too).

While the door looks as shown and is why I purchased it, the 3 hinges have large metal brackets that extend into the opening between the two panels. The result is that the door can't close because of the metal brackets. Worst hinge design I have ever seen.

Will be returning. Poor quality and door is falling apart. Door is too hallow.

I bought 2 sets of these doors 4 years ago. They are attractive but very lightweight and the hardware is flimsy. One set, in a bedroom, has had no problems. The second set was damaged when I stumbled backward into one of doors on the day we moved in. This bent track at the top and also caused the solid wood at the bottom of the door to break loose from the hollow core, leaving no support for the pin securing the door in place to the floor. That was repaired successfully, and I purchased a replacement track. I had a good 6 months of smooth operation. Now the other door is sagging.

They look good but for the price I would expect a solid core door.
