Why Sliding Barn Doors Are a Great Design Element
They add unmatched rustic warmth. Our beautiful barn doors add the richness and warmth of history to your home. There’s nothing like authentic reclaimed wood that has completely unique colors, textures, and grain. You can’t recreate the look of this wood using new wood.
They’re space savers. Using sliding doors means you don’t have to account for the room that a swinging door needs. They tuck away easily with a slight push, making them easy for everyone to use.
They are easy to install. Sliding barn doors are faster and easier to install than hung or pocket doors. The use of tracking means that even heavy doors can be installed without worries about stability or balance.
You can paint or finish them. Depending on the overall look you’re styling, you can paint or finish barn doors to blend with it. Paint it pure white or add a pop of color. Finish it to retain the natural look. Leave it as-is to add a rough, rustic element.
