Our double track barn door hardware kits are designed for doors that are 1-3/8 to 1-3/4 inches thick. But don't worry! If your door is thinner, we also offer spacer extenders and hex bolts to make it compatible.

When installing barn door hardware, a header is crucial for several reasons:

• Enhanced Aesthetics: A header provides a cleaner and more finished look to your installation, elevating the overall appearance of your space.
• Structural Integrity: By distributing the weight of the barn door system evenly, a header prevents potential damage to drywall, especially for large or heavy doors.
• Flexible Installation: Headers come pre-drilled with track mounting holes, allowing you to customize the track's position on the wall. Without a header, you're limited to the stud locations.

For your barn door header support, a sturdy hardwood is recommended. This will ensure it can adequately support the weight of your barn door.

Here are some popular choices:

• Red Oak: Known for its strength, durability, and attractive grain.
• White Oak: Another strong and durable option with a slightly lighter color.
• Maple: Offers excellent strength and a clean, classic appearance.
• Birch: A solid choice that is affordable and readily available.
• Poplar: Known for its consistency and paintability.

Avoid softwoods like pine, as they may not be strong enough to support the weight of your barn door over time.

For optimal support, we recommend a minimum header board thickness of 3/4 inches. The length of your header board should be equal to or slightly exceed the length of your barn door track. This ensures adequate support for the weight of your door and prevents sagging or instability.

The barn door hardware track, constructed from robust steel, measures 1/4 inch in thickness and 1-1/2 inches in width.

Tracks 8 feet and longer will be shipped in multiple sections. These sections can be easily connected using the included hardware. Shorter tracks will be shipped in a single piece.

Yes, we can provide custom track lengths to suit your specific needs. Please note that custom orders may have a slightly longer processing time. To request a custom track length, please contact Evan at evan@thebarndoorhardwarestore.com. He will guide you through the process and provide you with a quote.

Important: Custom length tracks are typically not covered by our standard warranty, and returns may not be accepted. Please review our return policy for more details.

While our steel hardware can be used outdoors, it's important to note that it may rust if exposed to constant rain, running water, or high humidity. This can lead to a shorter product lifespan. For optimal outdoor performance, we recommend our Stainless Steel series hardware. Its rust-resistant properties ensure long-lasting durability in even the harshest weather conditions.

To prevent a door wider than 4 feet from warping or bowing over time, we recommend using additional hangers to distribute the weight more evenly.

Yes, you can extend your existing barn door track. We offer additional track sections with mounting hardware that can be seamlessly connected to your current track, allowing you to customize the length to fit your needs. Email Evan at evan@thebarndoorhardwarestore.com for more information.

A barn door floor guide is a crucial component of any barn door hardware system. This bracket, floor-mounted included in our barn door hardware kits, ensures that the door remains aligned with the track above, preventing it from swinging towards or away from the wall.

Types of Floor Guides:

• Floor-Mounted Door Guide: Our floor-mounted door guide is the most popular type and is included in all our kits. It's installed on the floor near the door frame.
• Wall-Mounted Door Guide: If you prefer to avoid drilling into your floors, a wall-mounted guide can be used. It attaches to the baseboard or wall at the bottom edge of the doorway opening.

Benefits of Using a Floor Guide:

• Smooth Operation: Prevents the door from swinging, ensuring a smooth and quiet sliding motion.
• Durability: Made from high-quality materials to withstand daily use.
• Easy Installation: Includes all necessary hardware and clear instructions.

To prevent doors in a bypass setup from swaying and creating a tripping hazard, consider installing a wall-mounted floor guide on the interior door. These guides help keep the door aligned and prevent it from swinging excessively, reducing the risk of accidental tripping. They are a simple yet effective solution for maintaining door stability and safety in bypass configurations.
