The invention is a sliding door (1) comprising a door leaf (2) and a guide (3) that allows the door leaf (2) to slide along the guide (3), wherein the sliding door (1) furthermore comprises first coupling means (4) and second coupling means (5, 5′) suited to couple the door leaf (2) with the guide (3). Said first coupling means (4) comprise one or more magnetic elements (6), in such a way as to exert a magnetic force (FM) between the first coupling means (4) and the second coupling means (5, 5′) so that the weight of the door leaf (2) is at least partially supported through the magnetic force (FM). The invention concerns also the use of one or more magnetic elements (6, 8, 8′, 8a) in a sliding door (1), a door kit comprising one or more magnetic elements (6, 8, 8′, 8a) and a guide (3), as well as a furnishing element like, for example, a wardrobe, a cupboard, a piece of office furniture, a fridge, a shower cubicle, a bathtub.
