I have a 8 foot wide closet space that I would like to use two 4 foot
wide doors on a sliding door track. I want to avoid using three 32 inch
wide doors.

Does that sound like a stock item?

Thank you for any help.

I have seen mirror unit that wide in only 2 panels.

Don't ever recall seeing any other material that wide.

If your opening is exactly 96 inches wide would you not need two 48 1/2"
doors to fit slightly overlapping without a gap as many doors are 1/8"
undersized.

Sounds like a "Special Order" item to me. No big deal to get, you just
have to wait.
I order doors all the time. For example, it doesn't matter that every
house in my nighborhood, probably all within a certain age range in my
city us the same size doors as my house (and that is a huge number of
houses). But since they are not used in new houses, nobody stocks them.

You are right, the opening still has to be framed and we would want the
doors to overlap slightly.

Thank you for your input.

I searched online, have to call the local building supply house.

Thank you.

I see them fairly often in bi-fold types. Lowes in particular.

That's a big closet opening.
I'd almost say frame it in from the sides a bit for shelving on the
edges or something.

Even with bifolds, you'll have to take a few steps just to open your
closet... unless you've got an 8 foot wingspan.

Sliding doors are probably the best option (as you stated) but they
only allow you access to one side at a time. You can't "open" the
entire closet with sliders.
