DIY Barn Door Installation + Track Kits, Handles, Locks & Latches
Best DIY Black Barn Door Installation Kit – 1-2-3
Do you want to install sliding barn doors in your home with a more modern, contemporary style? This basic black barn door works like other sliders, but it really makes a statement with it’s bold color.
For example, you can add style to a kitchen wall with a unique pantry door, or add some life to your hallway with a closet barn door. Of course, they work well for bedrooms and bathrooms too.
You can even install or replace multiple doors to create a uniform upscale look. This simple change can really transform a boring interior space (while being functional too!)
Why Buy a Barn Door + Track Hardware Kit Together?
I like these barn door + roller track bundles because they can save you money. Plus, this style of door is fairly straightforward to install yourself (another cost-saver).
As you can see, it’s a really cool looking barn door, especially if you’re looking for modern versus rustic. You can even install a stainless steel door pull if you want.
This complete barn door kit includes all door pieces and the upper track with rollers and hardware. It even comes with a floor guide. In other words, this combo package includes all the parts you’ll need.
Note: However, if you want to switch out the handle for something more unique or install a door lock, you’ll need to purchase those separately. I’ve provided more information on both of those items below to make shopping easy.
3 Reasons Why You’ll Like This Door Panel Better:
1. This barn door kit features a sleek black rail kit and a pre-finished black door that you simply put together. Although it’s not made of real wood, the durable PVC material is designed to last. Plus, the surface easy to clean.
2. As you can see, up close the door panel has that realistic wood grain texture, just like a regular interior wood door. However, the material weighs less and can save you a bunch of money.
3. Not to mention, the pre-finished panel takes a lot of the work out of your door installation project. So, if you want to save time and money while adding style and sophistication to your home, this sliding door kit offers a great option.
Note: The kit contains a standard door handle, and you can attach it on the left or right of the face side of the door. However, you have the option to choose your own unique door handle and customize the look.
Basic barn door handles typically cost between $15-25, so you can create a custom look without having to spend lots of money.
You don’t get a door lock with this sliding barn door. This may not matter to you if you install them as closet doors or room dividers.
However, if you want the ability to lock the door, you can get a simple latch that you can install yourself in minutes. You can see different door locks an latches here.
You can attach these door latches as high or low as you want. So, if you don’t want young children to be able to reach them, simply install them higher up on the door/doorway.
