With a hint of rustic charm the k bar knotty alder wood interior sliding barn door is perfect for creating a unique transition between rooms or concealing.
Make a wooden barn door.
Use your saw to cut the wood to size.
This will ensure that your door is square.
Remember to add 2 inches to your door opening so your new barn door will cover the opening.
Next glue and screw the bottom mullion to the bottom rail and middle rail.
Once you have cut the boards to size measure the appearance board you just cut width wise so you can cut your top and bottom trim boards.
Cut the boards inch shorter than the height of the opening to allow the door to pass over the floor guide.
If you love the look now you can create your very own rustic barn door with just as much character as one that came straight from the farm.

It s time to assemble the frame of the barn door.
It barely requires any diy expertise and only costs 40.
That s what i did for our barn door in our foyer.
1x6 pine boards for the back.
Glad you like them.
Measure and mark the size of your door on your plywood.
Screw scraps of wood to the 2x4s on both sides of the door to hold the boards together while you add the horizontal rail.
To do this we started by gluing and screwing the bottom rail to both sides stiles.
For this barn door i put a little wood glue between each vertical board for stability.
Our barn door kits are diy projects that bring affordable on trend design to any home.
After checking to see that the ends of the boards are still lined up measure diagonally from opposite corners to make sure the door is square.
Designed to cover a 30 inch wide opening with 4 inch casing on either side this door measures 38 inches wide by 2 inches thick by 83 inches tall.
Whenever you walk into the studio the barn doors make a statement.
From the start i knew i wanted to build something fun and vibrant in the kitchen space to add color since most of the area is monochromatic.
Measure from both corners of the door before screwing the middle rail to the stiles.
You should build all of them.
When i looked into getting custom barn doors built the asking cost was close to 1200 for two doors not including hardware.
