3 Essential tips for installing a barn door

3 Essential tips for installing a barn door

Posted on April 8, 2022

Useful things to know

If you’re thinking about adding a modern touch to your home by installing some Barn Door Tracks, there are some tips you need to know.

Some of these hints are gleaned from common questions people have about installing barn doors and barn door hardware, such as “will my bathroom barn door facilitate enough privacy?”

This article outlines three crucial pieces of information that you need to know when you consider installing barn door hardware and the doors themselves.

Read on to be more informed about barn doors before installing them.

1. Choose wisely from the range of options

There are various options open to you when you are in the market for barn doors or even simply barn door tracks in Australia.

A cost-effective solution for barn door tracks that cater to double doors is the Rolltrak Track Joiner, which allows doors to meet in the middle.

Our range of barn door tracks and accessories gives you a lot of budget flexibility, as you are not tied down to a particular door type.

Some door types are more expensive than others, so by opting for door hardware from Rolltrak, you get a high-quality product compatible with various doors at a variety of price points.

2. Consider privacy and soundproofing

Privacy and soundproofing are some of the most important concerns people have when installing barn door hardware.

Rest assured, we have you covered at Rolltrak with our handy accessories, such as the Barn Door Latch, which allows you to lock barn doors when necessary, for example, when they lead to a bathroom.

The best way of ensuring that your barn door hardware allows for a silent operation of your barn door is to install a Barn Door Soft Closer that prevents loud slams.

If you are using barn door tracks for the entrance to a bathroom, you might be concerned about “toilet noises” being audible through the door.

If this is something that you are wondering about, make sure the barn door you choose is solid wood, as it will offer more soundproofing protection than other materials.

Another way of ensuring sufficient soundproofing is to make sure your barn door is the right size so that there are no gaps for sound to leak through.

3. Choose your aesthetics carefully

The barn door you choose, combined with the barn door hardware, each has a massive influence on the room’s aesthetics.

There are many different treatments available for barn doors these days – from stained to painted to distressed, to minimalist, to attention-grabbing and colourful the list goes on.

To make the right choice for your home, draw inspiration from the colours and textures already used in the rest of your rooms.

Do you want your barn door to be a centrepiece, something that demands attention or blends in?

Now consider your barn door hardware.

There are many options on the market with Rolltrak.

You can buy Side Mount, and Top Mount Barn Door Tracks with ease from Rolltrak.

We have them in a variety of finishes, as well as our more uncommon tracks, such as the Big Wheel Barn Door Track and our Round Barn Door Track.
