How do I build a non-load-bearing interior wall with a sliding door.

[Erik Hultgren1]

Hello,

I am going to build a non-load-bearing interior wall with a sliding door. The sliding door is from Bauhaus and is 95mm wide. (link below).

I see two options.

1. Build with a 45mm stud, OSB on both sides 22mm, and gypsum, 26mm. This totals 93mm. Is it OK if the door frame is 95mm?
2. Build with a 70mm stud, skip OSB (won't have anything on the walls), gypsum 26mm. This totals 96mm. Is it OK if the door frame is 95mm?

Or is there a better way? Grateful for help!

Normally, you build with a 70mm stud but you can attach OSB to it, although you will then need to do additional trimming before installing the casing around the doorway. Alternatively, you can settle for just simple drywall on both sides and then it is complete from the factory.

Normally, you build with a 70mm stud, but you can put OSB on it, then you just need to add an extra lining before installing the trim around the door opening.
Or, you can settle for just single plasterboard on both sides, and then it's complete from the factory.

Thanks for the response.

Yes, I suppose if I go with a 70mm stud + plasterboard, then it should work well with that door? Theoretically, there's a 1mm difference, but I assume it's negligible and won't cause problems when I install the trim?

It'll be half a mil on each side, so nothing to worry about.
