Classic J-Strap Bifold Barn Door Hardware Kit | 2 Door Kit

Panel weight: Up to 62.5 lbs per panel · 125 lbs total system. For heavier panels, see our heavy duty bifold hardware.

Panel width: Sized based on how much coverage you need over the opening — see the panel sizing section below for formulas and worked examples.

Panel height: Opening height + 1 in. Leaves 5/8 to 1-1/4 in of floor clearance, adjustable at the wall-mounted pivot during installation.

Panel thickness: 1-1/4 in to 1-3/8 in. For thicker panels, heavy duty bifold handles 1-3/8 to 2-1/4 in.

Maximum panel size: 24 in wide × 84 in tall per panel. For larger panels see our heavy duty bifold hardware, which supports panels up to 48 in × 108 in.

Ceiling clearance above door: 5-1/2 in required between the top of the door panels and the ceiling.

Wall clearance on stack side: For a fully clear opening, 5 in of clear wall is needed on the stack side — Goldberg Brothers hardware folds two panels into just 5 in of depth. Minimum 1/2 in is required between the track end and any hard obstruction on the pivot side.

Wall header: A solid header above the opening is required for track mounting. If there is no existing header or backing in the wall, we recommend installing a minimum 1×6 hardwood board (3/4 in thick × 5-1/2 in wide) that extends past the length of the track to the next stud or structural support point on each side. Ceiling mount is not compatible with bifold hardware.

• Pre-punched track (1) — custom cut to your specified length
• Fixed J-strap hanger (1) · Loose J-strap hanger (1)
• Carriage bolts, keps nuts, and hex bolts for hanger attachment
• Hinges (4 — 3 used for panels 7 ft tall or under, all 4 for taller panels) · 5/8 in hinge screws (16)
• Sidewall pivot assembly (1) — wall-mounted
• Door bottom plate (1) · 3/4 in steel washer (1)
• Track stops (2) · rubber bumper band (1) · clear bumper pads (6) · felt strip (1)
• Lag bolts (3) · spacers · nylon fender washers (3) · wood screws
• Flange nuts (2)
• 4 in pull handle (1)

The fixed hanger attaches to the pivot-side panel. The loose hanger attaches to the non-pivot panel and travels freely along the track as the doors fold open.

A latch and flush pull are not included — add them before ordering to avoid a second shipment. Soft close is not compatible with bifold hardware.

This kit includes a 4 in pull handle. A latch and flush pull are not included:

Latch: Keeps the door closed deliberately — browse our latches collection

Flush pull: For the wall-facing side if the door is operated from both sides — browse our flush pulls collection

Bifold sizing is based on total panel width — the combined width of both door panels — not the rough opening. The track length you select should equal your total panel width. How much coverage you need determines which formula to use. For a full walkthrough of all configurations see our bifold measuring guide.

Minimum coverage (doors close over the opening with a small overlap on each side):
Total panel width = opening + 3 in · Each panel = (opening + 3 in) ÷ 2
Example: 36 in opening → total = 39 in → each panel = 19.5 in, round up to 20 in

Fully clear — asymmetrical (doors stack fully clear but overlap more on the pivot side than the non-pivot side):
Total panel width = opening + 6 in · Each panel = (opening + 6 in) ÷ 2
Example: 36 in opening → total = 42 in → each panel = 21 in

Fully clear — symmetrical (recommended) (equal overlap on both sides — looks intentional when the doors are open):
Total panel width = opening + 10 in · Each panel = (opening + 10 in) ÷ 2
Example: 36 in opening → total = 46 in → each panel = 23 in
