Hall closet turned mudroom

Tired of having a cluttered and messy hall closet, I convinced my husband we should gut it and turn it into a modified "mudroom". But, not only is it an open mudroom as you enter from the front door, it is also my dogs favorite "kennel" area. We used cut-down bifold louvered doors and mounted them on a track & there you go - sliding doors for the doggy area, which later can become hidden storage for totes...
