Easy DIY Room Divider Partition Wall for Privacy
In this video, learn how to make an inexpensive room divider fast! Since I'm making these for a video studio, I put a heavy felt fabric on one side to reduce reverb and kept the shiny silver material on the other for a handy light reflector. You can use interesting fabrics to turn your room divider into a design centerpiece. Lightweight and easy to maneuver, these temporary walls can be used to section off areas of a room for privacy, noise reduction or warmth. Each 4ft x 8ft panel with feet and fabric (optional) costs about $50 and can be completed in about 30 minutes.

2 Questions 📌Love your video but I don’t have a saw to cut the slot for the panels so how can I accomplish this another way? 📌how much did that project cost about to create?

For the pipe and the panel it’s $50. If you can find white pvc that size it could bring the price down to $40. Home Depot has saws that customers can use in the trim aisle. I’d “borrow” a scroll saw to make the two final cuts in the pipe.

There are links to the materials in the description. The prices fluctuate based on supply. If you don’t have a saw you can actually make the two big cuts using the saw most home improvement stores provide in the baseboard and moldings aisle. Then to get the short cuts you could either “borrow” a hand scroll saw or you can drill a series of holes across and it’ll break free. Use a file to cleanup the edge.

One of the Best Idea of Room Dividers Are "SoundProof Room Dividers Curtains" That Stops Noise by 80% (25 Db) Tested. Check Here: livesoundproof.com/best-soundproof-room-divider-curtains/
This seller ships this item very carefully to ensure that your room divider kzread.infoUgkxWv_wTHyTRVm0QkcOw1Rz2-5g_gDoRTkU is not damaged in transit. They even place stickers saying glass, handle with care. I originally bought a 4 panel room divider, but after receiving it I knew I needed larger for the area I was trying to hide. I wanted a 6 panel, but it was not offered in the Espresso color that I wanted, so I went with 5 panels. This is serving my purpose very well on hiding my dog's pee pads. I ended up using the 4 panel one in a corner behind my Christmas tree. The best thing is you do not have to put anything together, you just take it carefully out of the box and place it where you want it. It can be moved around very easily. Plus, these dividers start at the floor, so nothing is seen moving around on the other side like some other dividers I looked into. Now that I have a 4 and 5 panel one, I am sure that I can get them to overlap and work other ways should I need to in the future.
As a former contractor, I give this two thumbs up!
3 weeks ago I watched your video and wanted to come back and let you know that I made this diy divider. It was so easy! It looks Great in the space and it cost me less then $25 to make. Thanks for the video

This will reduce my cost for my next rental home .Instead of looking for a 4 bedroom I can look for a 3 bedroom and divide 1 of the rooms .Thanks this is awesome ready to move now lol

By far the best DIY on building inexpensive panels, thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing. I needed a room divider for our church. This is quick, easy and inexpensive. I will be making this today.
This is FANTASTIC, thank you so much. I was looking to make a "DIY wall" of sorts and I assumed it just wasn't that simple (for me). This is perfect and exactly what I was looking for.. And less than 3 minutes to explain the process. Thank you.
This was just what I was looking for: easy, fast, and affordable! Thank you so much for posting!
You're a blessing! I was getting ready to spend way too much money for a divider to use for my daughter's online school. I also work from home and both our desk are in the same office. I needed something modern looking, but not overly expensive to create some privacy. This is an excellent idea. Just placed an order for all the materials and will be putting together this weekend! Thanks so much!!
I can't thank you enough for sharing this amazing idea with all of us🤗 It's extremely easg to make plus so effective. Hands down by far the BEST dyi room divider video out there! Thank you again for showing me and everyone else this wonderful idea
Perfect!!! I am moving to a one bedroom condo and want to turn the dining room into a guest bedroom/den for when my daughter has breaks from college. This is perfect and something I can actually manage to make. I love the fabric idea. I can set the moveable walls against the back real walls as decor when not being used and set them up as needed walls to close off the room when she is home and needs her own own space. Thank you for this idea!!!
I have searched over a hundred room dividers....this is BRILLIANT ! I 'bout flipped out when I saw what the black pipe thing was for. GENIUS>

This is exactly what I was looking for - a cheap way to make a room divider. Everything else I looked at was costing over a hundred dollars, and in one case, over a grand. I just wanted something simple - insulation paneling! Damn, that's smart.
OH My this is the best. Thank you for sharing, I have been looking for months for a way to divide a room, I rent so did not want to drill walls. THANK YOU!!!!
This is brilliant! THANK YOU! I’m temporarily going to be living in a living room in a rental. I had no idea how I was going to create a door. This is easy enough for even me!! I can also even cut a doggie door at the bottom for my dog to go in and out of the room! 😁

ABS Pipe?! 🤯Brilliant dude! Thank you so much for that awesome idea! I was going to buy all this extra wood to attach to my acoustic DIY panels, but this is a FAR better idea! Genius man, for real! Thank you!
Thanks for this video. I needed a way to separate my sons double wall to wall closet because he was using one side as an office. I decided to use tacky glue spray instead of the white glue roll on. Local HD didn’t have the VPC pipe so I found room divider feet online for about $20 (same as the price of the pipe without the cutting and painting work.
Excellent! Working from home has made this a necessity and this is so affordable. Thank you! 🙏🏼👍🏼
Finally! Other DIY ideas that I saw looked very cheap and trashy. I can actually accomplish this by myself! Thank you.
Thank you for this inexpensive dyi video. I need to make some of these to create an extra bedroom space in my extra large living room area and this helps me a lot to keep it simple, inexpensive and quick to make. Great video.

Just made a complete wall using white bifold doors and black pvc pipe. It is gorgeous! It folds and moves really well and we use in our 40 foot room to create different spaces. We are going to make another one so we can create 3 rooms in one. Great for visitors, craft areas, photo space, and whatever!!! Love it and got the idea from you!
