Kit configurations
We offer four configurations. The right one depends on your opening, how much wall clearance you have on either side, and how you want the doors to move.

What's in every kit
Every kit includes the door panel(s) and matching hardware — track, rollers, hangers, and mounting hardware. Door panels are solid pine. Most kits come pre-stained and ready to hang — just install the panels. An unfinished option is available on most kits if you'd prefer to apply your own paint or stain. Hardware is our house value line, matched to the door size in the kit.
All doors come in standard sizing only. If your project requires a non-standard door size, we don't offer custom sizing — you'd need to source the door separately and purchase hardware from our hardware kits collection to match. If you're not sure whether a standard size works for your opening, email us before ordering.
A quick note on track length
Our kits are configured with the correct track length for the door size included. But it's worth knowing the rule: for a standard single sliding barn door, the track needs to be at least twice the door width to allow a full, unobstructed opening. A 36-inch door needs a 72-inch track minimum.
If you're unsure whether the kit size you're considering will fully clear your opening, email us with your rough opening dimensions before ordering. It's a quick check that prevents a frustrating return.
When a kit makes sense — and when it doesn't
We'd rather give you a straight answer on this than have you find out after the fact.
A kit is probably the right call if:
- You want one purchase and one delivery — door and hardware arrive together, matched
- Your opening fits a standard door size
- You want to remove any guesswork about whether the door and hardware will work together
- Convenience matters more than minimizing cost on this project
You're likely better off sourcing a door locally if:
- You need a non-standard door size — we don't offer custom sizing
- Keeping cost down is the priority — door freight is the main price driver, and local sourcing cuts that significantly
- You have access to local lumber yards, millwork shops, or home improvement stores with door styles that fit your project better
- You want a specific wood species, finish, or panel design we don't carry
If you source a door locally, purchase hardware from our hardware kits collection. Email us with your door dimensions and we'll confirm the right hardware and track length before anything ships.
