I don't think just vinyl will work. then the door is non functional as well. if I frame the thing out with some 4x4 and pop another slider in it should come out easy when I move. a little drywal repair and some paint to fix it. no big deal. should I use a triple pane door? can't find any off the shelf sellers of these kinds of doors... only installers advertising this type of product. |

??? Nothing you're talking about would be as innocuous as hanging some mass-loaded vinyl sheet over the door. It would remain completely functional -- just push the sheet aside to get in and out -- and it would probably give you roughly the same transmission loss as a scabbed-together wall + another door. You do realize that mass-loaded vinyl is heavy as hell? It's basically lead sheet. |

You said "cheap". You also don't own the place. Sorry I tried to help. |

i thought of that as well, but i like the idea of still having natural light in the room and it is a small room and the swinging door would get in the way when opening. I said seal it up because the stock door is not air tight and sound is transmiting in through the bad seals. |
