Welcome to our collection of barn door hardware! Barn doors are a stylish and modern alternative to traditional interior doors that swing open and close on hinges installed into the door frame. These are typically large wooden doors suspended by strong metal hangers that use small wheels to roll along a track installed above the door frame. A door pull is attached to the hanging door, allowing it to be pulled open and closed by sliding along the door track. Barn door hardware is meant to be sleek and industrial in style, to match the design aesthetic that traditionally incorporates an interior barn-style door.

How to Order Barn Door Hardware

When ordering hardware for barn doors for your home or commercial space from Direct Door Hardware, you'll have the option to order full door hardware kits that include everything you need to install or replace an interior barn-style door. While choosing barn door hardware for your home, you need to think about three primary components: the tracks, the hangers, and the pulls. Your other alternative is to order each hardware piece individually, which is great if you are searching for replacement parts.

  1. Track – the track that you order should be long enough for the door (or doors) to cover the wall's opening when closed and completely clear the opening when it is in an open position. When choosing a track for your space, take the time to measure properly before ordering.
  2. Hangers – when looking at barn door hangers, you can add more style and design with great industrial and Western options. You will have the option to order a standard wheelset or pay a little extra to install quiet-roll wheels.
  3. Pulls – this piece offers the most design flexibility to match the rest of your space. Or, you can decide not to install a pull at all.

As mentioned above, you need to make sure that you order all three barn door hardware components and make sure that they are the correct size and are similar enough to make a cohesive hardware set. If you need any assistance in measuring your door or ordering your hardware, don't hesitate to reach out for help!

Frequently Asked Questions

  1. How do you measure barn door hardware?

    To measure for barn door hardware, first measure the width of the door opening and add 2 to 4 inches on either side. This makes sure the door covers the opening completely when closed. For the track length, double the width of your door. For the door height, measure from the floor to the top of the door, and leave a 1/2-inch gap above the door for smooth operation.

  2. Do I need special backing to install barn door hardware?

    Yes, proper backing is important for securely mounting barn door hardware. You’ll need to lag into solid backing, such as wall studs or a mounted header board, to support the door's weight. Drywall anchors are not usually enough.

  3. Can I install barn door hardware myself?

    Absolutely! With the right tools and instructions, most people can install barn door hardware themselves. It’s a pretty straightforward process, but it’s always helpful to have an extra pair of hands, especially when mounting the door onto the track.
