Installing a sliding door in a drywall - Knauf Pocket Kit Silent

n this tutorial we will show you step by step how to install a Knauf Pocket Kit Silent sliding door in a drywall. We install a damper and the push to open function. The practical thing about the Silent version of this sliding door system is that it insulates sound particularly well. To further improve the sound insulation, this wall is double-boarded on both sides with Knauf Diamant boards. In this installation guide, you will learn from our drywall professionals which tools and material you need for the installation and what you need to bear in mind when installing the sliding door in the partition wall. They will also give you simple tips to make the work easier.
Our Knauf demonstration masters Tarkan, Michael and Adi give you professional tips for your drywall project in this video series. Find more helpful tips, tricks and tutorials on our channel.

About the "This is how drywall works" series:
Tarkan, Michael and Adi are our Knauf demonstration masters. Their job is to help professionals with their drywall projects every day. For this season, we have set out to collect the most important information, tips & tricks on drywall construction for you. No matter if you want to build a facing shell yourself or if you just want to fill something - here you will learn first-hand from professionals how it is done. Knauf metal stud walls are an equivalent alternative to "light", solid interior walls for interior construction. Partition walls made of gypsum boards are particularly versatile due to the dry and quick assembly as well as the slim wall cross-sections, with the best thermal, sound and fire protection properties. They are stable and provide the necessary peace and comfort within your own four walls.
