Comments (6)Or a magnetic child safety lock for kitchen cabinets from Mothercare or Lidl for example. It would be affordable, invisible and would last a long time. It would come with instructions and a template for drilling a small hole on the inside to insert the magnet.

Comments (32)If you need to keep the space open due to light levels, then shelves with an interesting display would work well, a glass divide/window can look odd on an internal wall, if you are not careful, although, depending on the rest of the house, the crittal window might look interesting too. Stained glass would have to look good on both sides and could be very expensive. I like the look of the climbing rope diy on the stairs, it might be worth trying that idea too. Please don't go with the fish tank, horrible expensive out of place smelly things in a nice clean home, they remind me of pet shops! It really boils down to what you like the look of best, if you really have to keep the space open, just don't forget there is nothing wrong with feeling warm in your home and there is more chance of that if you don't feel a blast of cold air every time the front door is opened, so don't rule out a proper wall if it at all possible....See MoreWant to remove curtains BUT, there is no room for blinds, ANY ideas?

Good old spindles or glass (Not too modern style) For info the carpet on the stairs will be light grey and the hall flooring a darker colour....See More

5 years agoWe were in same position...we knocked down wall just wide enough so no need for RSJ as it was a supporting wall. Put 4 door bi fold door inbetween. Not finished decorating yet so bit bare! (Protective film still on glazed glass..not taken off yet).
