How to Install Hidden Roller Barn Door Hardware

Get the Look Without the Guesswork.

Installing hidden roller hardware might look complicated, but it is actually quite similar to a standard barn door setup—with one key difference. In this video, we walk you through the unique "back-mounting" technique that keeps the mechanics completely invisible from the front.

Watch to learn:

  • Track Placement: How to level and mount the wall rail for perfect clearance.
  • Hanger Installation: Positioning the rollers on the back of the door to achieve the "floating" effect.
  • The Final Hang: Safely lifting the door onto the track and securing the safety stops.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is hidden with this hardware?

The roller mechanism conceals behind the door panel—you won't see the wheels or roller hangers from the front. The track, wall-mounted brackets, and bottom floor guide remain visible. This creates a cleaner look than fully exposed systems while maintaining the barn door aesthetic.

How much of the hardware will I actually see?

You'll see the track running along the wall above the door, the mounting brackets that attach the track to the wall, and a small T-guide at floor level. The roller mechanism itself stays hidden behind the door panel.

What's the difference between Single Roller and Double Roller?

Single Roller supports doors up to 125 lbs and uses a narrower roller assembly (3-1/4" wide). Double Roller supports doors up to 250 lbs with a wider roller assembly (5-1/2" wide) for heavier solid wood doors. Choose based on your door's weight.

How much door overlap do I need to conceal the rollers?

Your door must extend at least 4-3/8" above the top of the door opening to properly hide the roller mechanism. This overlap ensures the rollers remain behind the door panel and out of view.

What door thicknesses work with hidden roller hardware?

This kit works with doors as thin as 1". There's no maximum thickness limit—the door just needs sufficient height to overlap the opening by at least 4-3/8" to conceal the roller mechanism.

Is this a good choice for modern or minimalist spaces?

Yes. Hidden roller hardware reduces visual clutter compared to traditional exposed-roller systems. If you like the barn door look but prefer less prominent hardware, this offers a middle ground—you still see the track, but the bulkier roller components stay out of sight.

Do I need a header board for hidden roller hardware?

Yes. A header board distributes the door's weight evenly across the wall, prevents drywall damage, and provides a solid mounting surface. Use hardwood at minimum 1" thick and 6" wide, extending to wall studs beyond each track end.

What are the track dimensions for this kit?

Track dimensions are 1-1/2" wide × 3/16" thick—slightly narrower than heavy-duty systems but appropriate for the weight capacities offered.

Can I add soft-close to hidden roller hardware?

No. Soft-close mechanisms are not compatible with hidden roller hardware systems. The internal design of the concealed track does not allow for the integration of soft-close devices.

How does installation differ from standard barn door hardware?

The main difference is how the rollers attach to the door—they mount in a position that places them behind the panel rather than on the front face. The track installation is similar to standard systems. Detailed instructions are included with every kit.

Do you offer custom track lengths?

Yes. Every track is custom-cut to your exact specifications. We can accommodate any length—tracks over 7'6" are shipped in multiple sections with junction plates for seamless connection. To get started, please fill out our custom quote form.

Important: Returns for custom items may not be accepted. Review our return policy before finalizing your purchase.

Is this hardware suitable for outdoor use?

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.

Is there a size limit for doors used with this 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.

Is a floor guide essential for this installation?

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.

What finishes are available for the Hidden Roller hardware?

Available finishes include Matte Black, Black, Arch Bronze, and Silver Metallic. All finishes are powder-coated for durability.

Does the hardware kit include Delrin silent wheels?

Yes, the kit includes Delrin silent wheels for whisper-quiet operation.

What tools do I need for installation?

  • Drill with bits
  • Level
  • Stud finder
  • Measuring tape
  • Pencil
  • Wrench or socket set (included hardware)

All mounting hardware is included in the kit.

How long does production take?

Hidden roller kits are custom-manufactured to order in the USA. Allow 10-15 business days for production before shipping.

Is there a warranty for this product?

Yes. Goldberg Brothers provides a limited lifetime manufacturer’s warranty covering defective parts under normal installation and use. The warranty covers repair or replacement of defective components at the manufacturer's discretion and does not include installation costs.

Not covered: Cosmetic imperfections in steel parts visible through the finish, rust (some rusting is possible on powder-coated steel if installed outdoors or exposed to high humidity), or damage from extreme circumstances.
