Frequently Asked Questions
What barn door products does Windsor Plywood carry?
Windsor Plywood carries barn door hardware kits from Acme and coordinating interior door slabs suitable for barn door installations. Hardware kits include wall-mounted track systems, door hangers, floor guides, and accessories. Door slabs in species and profiles compatible with barn door applications are also available.
What is a barn door and how does it work?
A barn door is an interior door that slides on an exposed wall-mounted track above the opening rather than swinging on hinges. The door panel hangs from wheeled hangers on the track and slides along the wall to open and close. Barn doors are popular in residential interiors for their visual interest, space efficiency in tight areas, and ability to make a design statement through the hardware and door material choice.
What is the minimum wall space required for a barn door?
A standard single barn door requires unobstructed wall space equal to the width of the door opening plus the full door panel width, to allow the door to slide completely clear of the opening. For a 36-inch door opening with a 36-inch door panel, approximately 72 inches of wall space is required. Bi-parting barn doors using two panels split in opposite directions require only the door opening width plus one panel width per side.
What thickness of door slab is required for barn door hardware?
Most barn door hardware kits are designed for 1-3/8 inch or 1-3/4 inch thick door slabs. Confirm the door thickness compatibility of the specific hardware kit with Windsor Plywood staff before purchasing. The strap style must suit the door thickness for correct hanging geometry and appearance.
Do barn doors provide sound attenuation between rooms?
Barn doors do not provide significant sound attenuation because the door slides along the wall rather than sealing against the opening frame. There is a gap around all four sides of a sliding barn door that allows sound transmission. For rooms requiring sound privacy such as home offices and bedrooms, a hinged door with proper weatherstripping provides much better acoustic separation.
