Durable Closets

Our solid core closet doors, are built to last. Some original towers shown below have been installed floor to ceiling for over 60 years and counting, with minimal maintenance or replacements. The full length piano hinge, keeps the panels secure. The extruded aluminum track, has a nylon guide so that the bifold cannot fall out of the track, aiding in the durability.

Custom Options

What sets Magiglide closet doors apart from the rest? The closets are all custom sized to the nearest 1/4” in width, and the nearest 1/2” in height. This allows you to design the closet doors where you want, instead of holding your opening to a standard. For example, it is the same for for the doors to go 8 ft tall, so why not maximize storage for the tenants while not spending extra time in drawings and REVIT to drop a header?

Custom sizes

Specifications

Case Study

Chicago, IL

2024

Mary Thompson Hospital, opened in 1865 provided medical care to indigent women and children as well as clinical training to women doctors. Mary Harris Thompson, for whom it is named, founded the hospital because at the time, women were not yet permitted to be on any Chicago’s hospital staffs. Her objective was to serve widows and orphans of the Civil War soldiers who had died in battle.

Due to the historical nature of the building, when Marquette Companies bought the building and land in 2021 they had a decision to make. They could either demolish the whole hospital and start fresh, or build around the structure because of the historical importance of the building.

The team involved in this adaptive reuse transformation, utilized our Magiglide closet doors, in order to place in a high quality closet door, that is custom sized in order to optimize closet storage space for tenants. The following companies worked with Landquist, to bring this partnership to fruition:

Developer: Marquette Companies

Architect: Park Fowler Plus formerly Brininstool + Lynch

General Contractor: Power Construction

Closet Door Supplier: American Building Services

Kudos to the 3 partners Nick Ryan, Trevor Ryan, and James Cunningham who made the right decision. The project became part adaptive reuse of a century-old hospital structure and part new construction. The developer demolished only a wing of the hospital and was able to construct a new 12 story building, while keeping the healthcare roots visible through an angraving on the remaining hospital structure that reads. ‘Founded by Dr. Mary Thompson.’

The closet doors shown to the right, are installed into LVT flooring, with a standard floor plate. The track was installed straight into concrete in the ceiling. No extra drywall needed to drop the header when you use Magiglide closet doors. The doors are excellent value and a great Value Engineering option from the Pre-Design phase. Park Fowler and Marquette Companies have used our Magiglide closet doors in numerous buildings, and have been pleased with the ending result.

Magiglide custom bifold door system for residential closet systems

The Magiglide closet doors provided for this project, were all Advantage Series, 1-1/8” thick closet doors. This is the premium thickness offered. The finish manufactured is primed paintable melamine. This finish is considered finish, as it has 4 coats of resin over the overlay. However, if anything were to damage the face of the doors, they are also fixable. Some wood putty, sanding and paint and the doors will be fixed, good as new. Most of the bifold closet doors were supplied at 108” tall. This allowed for the deletion of the header above the closet doors, as shown above. This can help expedite construction and also optimize the space allotted for storage for the tenants.

The brochure includes additional images of the apartment and city views.

As you can see from the projects showcased on the left, Magiglide closet doors have helped this Marquette and Park Fowler Plus duo, to elevate their closet door capabilities. They dream it, we manufacture it for them. At Landquist, we do not have any closet doors in stock. That means that every door manufactured is made for the project that was ordered. The multifamily projects to the left showcase Adaptive Reuse, Multifamily market rate projects in Chicago and Houston. We are thankful for being specified into these projects, and truly love to see our door designed in a way that is unlike any other bifold closet on the market.
