This Wagon Wheel Horseshoe Heavy Duty Hardware Kit is compatible with doors from 1-3/8 inches to 2-1/4 inches thick.

Yes, because this is an external mount system that carries the full weight of the doors from the top, you must have a solid mounting surface. You either need solid blocking installed inside the wall or an external header board (ledger board) mounted to the studs.

• Weight Distribution: A header board or internal blocking ensures the weight of the doors is distributed evenly across multiple studs rather than putting stress on a single point.
• Installation Flexibility: Using a header board provides a continuous solid surface, allowing you the flexibility to place your track exactly where it needs to be without being restricted by the specific locations of your wall studs.
• Structural Integrity: This setup prevents the track from sagging over time, ensuring your bifold system continues to glide smoothly and remains perfectly aligned.

Use hardwood that can support your door's weight. Good options include:

• Red Oak – Strong, durable, attractive grain
• White Oak – Strong with a lighter color
• Maple – Excellent strength, clean appearance
• Birch – Solid, affordable, readily available
• Poplar – Consistent and easy to paint

Avoid softwoods like pine, which may not support the door's weight over time.

Minimum 1" thick and 6" wide. Length should extend to the next wall stud beyond each end of the track to ensure full support.

For this Goldberg Brothers Heavy Duty Single Track kit, the track dimensions are:

• Thickness: 3/16 inch
• Width: 2 inches

To ensure your door slides completely clear of the opening, your track must be at least double the width of the door(s) you are installing.

• Single Door: Track length = 2× door width. Example: A 36" door needs a 72" (6-foot) track.
• Double Doors: Track length = 2× total door width (or 4× one door width). Example: Two 36" doors need a 144" (12-foot) track.

This powder-coated steel hardware can be used outdoors in covered areas, but exposure to rain or high humidity may cause rust over time. For outdoor installations or coastal environments, we recommend our Stainless Steel Hardware, which is specifically engineered for weather resistance.

Adjust the header board thickness or use spacer blocks to create your desired clearance. The door will naturally sit about 3/8" from the wall when mounted with standard hardware.

To prevent a door wider than 4 feet from warping over time, we recommend using additional hangers to distribute the weight more evenly. Email us at info@thebarndoorhardwarestore.com for more information.

Yes. The included floor guide keeps your door aligned with the track and prevents swinging, ensuring smooth operation and preventing the door from shifting away from the wall. It's a small component that makes a significant difference in performance.
