We just installed a new floor that goes under the pocket door. We test to be certain there was enough clearance by sliding the door over it but only partially closed the door for that. It was only after the job was completed that we discovered that the deep end of the door is hanging a shade lower but enough to jams against the new floor when the door is only 3/4 closed. Is there any solution besides taking down the door moulding or cutting a hole in the wall?
