We have a ceiling-high glass door with a side panel in a folding floor frame to separate the entire room from the hallway and thus the stairs/first floor.

It's usually open, but when there's a disturbance upstairs or the TV is turned up louder in the evening, it closes.

So it's already a regular feature.

Advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that it's separate, soundproof, and visually it's a highlight. I only like the sliding doors built into the wall, I don't want to see the necessary mechanics, I don't like it.

The downside, the high price, our door cost about 4k, and the fingerprints on the glass. Also, when it's closed, someone might bump into it.
