Our barn door builds date back to our first whole home renovation project back in 2015. I've mentioned this before, but we love barn doors because:
1. Without door swing, they are space saving
2. They can become a focal point or at a minimum, a conversation point for your room
If there is a negative, here's what we would say:
1. With the expense of the hanging hardware, barn doors aren't super cheap
2. If a goal is to create privacy, you may get a little, but we haven't developed barn doors with a locking system. Consider the lack of a privacy lock in spaces like bedrooms or bathrooms.
Today, I wanted to showcase all of the barn doors we've built and hung in our last three home renovations:
