How to Make & Install a Barn Door | EASY!

- Опубліковано 27 тра 2024
- WE are going to be making a barn door today! This is a unique build where we use tongue and groove boards for the main part of the door. The grooves, lightweight material, and simple slide in design makes this an EASY diy project that pretty much anyone can do.
The materials list in the video will also demonstrate just how simple this barn door build is - there are barely any tools needed.

The tongue and groove boards are 1in x 6in x 8ft and then cut to the height needed to cover the door.
Making this wooden sliding door was the best thing we could have done for our laundry room as we now have so much extra room without having a standard swinging door in the way. Eventually we will finish remodeling the laundry room and push some of the machines back more into the wall. More to come on that later! Subscribe!
I really hope you enjoyed the barn door build and learned how to install it yourself!
See how simple that is! Just make a header board if you need one that has the rail sit on it. This just needs to be the length of the rail or longer.

Would you consider using a barn door for a bathroom? Or do you need privacy? 😬
Asking to see how my house would do on the market if we added a barn door to the bathroom and decided to sell the house..
Thoughts??
Master bathroom seems like a fine idea to me. But on the guest bathroom that would be a little strange to use IMO.
If I would install one for a bathroom, it would only be for a bathroom that is attached to a bedroom.
I work on a lot of new construction homes and most master baths have barn doors
Guest bathroom...Only if the Barn door set up you were using comes with a stile pocket so you can lock it. Not having a lock on it would be strange
@Enzo Moresi That's nice of you to install that for them! I installed one for a master bedroom on my previous home and it did the trick, it was private enough. And this newer one is closing off a laundry room and it blocks out noise pretty good. Definitely better than nothing!
These houses are always so clean and makes the install look so easy. What they don’t show is tools and crap everywhere and me dangling off a ladder cussing up a storm because my wife can’t figure out which tool I am asking for.
Train her better.
Ratchet straps in lieu of long clamps was a brilliant idea!
Update just bought all the wood with additional pieces for diagonals. It costs $128 for the wood only and good luck finding decent tongue and groove lumber not warped/twisted, I had to set lumber and weights on mine to get most of the spring out of it. Regardless, I still got a custom made door for a larger and taller archway (my door is 45"x90") for at least half the price for a cheap prefab one. Great video!
Could make your own tongue and groove with a router table…
Thank you so much for the video, I made my laundry’s door like you did in the video! Everybody loved it
Not just a maker but also a philosopher.
Haha wouldn't that be a great niche

Thanks! This was the perfect tutorial for my a barn door build for our bathroom that didn't have a door. Great presentation.
I almost, well was about to get a custom door made to have the width of 44”. After seeing this I’m going to make my own. I have all the tools needed. Great inspiration / video!!! 👊🏾
I use this to build my closet at my garage and planning to my barn door. Thank you. Good job.
The door came out lovely and an overall job well done. Thanks for sharing.
Great video!
Great idea on the blue tape trick, will definitely use that little trick when I hang my barn door 🙂
Good job!! Perfect running time!
Love the simple design
Love love love this. I hope I can pull it off.
I can feel how smooth that ride on the track feels like 🔥🔥
Best barn door video I’ve watched ❤Thank you for sharing!
Just wanted to say thank you. With this video, and the instructions with the mounting kit, I was able to complete my own barn door project.
This was a huge help. THANK YOU !!!
Absolutely Beautiful
That barn door really looks awesome! The style, color, and hardware come together nicely. Great stud finding tip too!
Thanks, I'm happy with the turnout too. Goes to show I've come a long way, the last time I made a headboard similar to this, it was all warped lol
Really nice video, thank you so much for posting it!
Oh my goodness, I love how these barn doors make a room look. You really did a fantastic job my friend. TFS
Thank you! Yea it changed the dining room in a big way
Really awesome job I'm going to use your design because of simplicity and quality
Great Job!! Love the design and finish...I want to do the same thing for my own bathroom
Very nice looking barn door, great build. Love that handle too.
Yea the hardware came out nice. Bulky and solid. Thanks for checking it out
Looks great, Shaun...nice video to...I really like the zoom in on the materials...nice touch!
Thanks! I'm always trying to enhance or do a new trick on each new video.
Great job!
This door turned out incredible! Great job on the build and on your detailed explanations!
Thank you! I wasn't sure how this one would go, but turned out great.
@@KellyConcepts Yes it did!
Best one of these I've seen yet.
Thanks! Just what I needed today 🙂
Great tip on the ratchet straps 👍👍
Had to think of something here, my clamps are just short of 40" lol
Looks great!!
I like how the stain turned out
Thanks Evan! Yea it cleaned this up nicely
Nice job! Love barn doors!
Thank you! Yes, it saved so much room and looks great
Awesome Job
Super video!! Thank you
Great video and you made the process very easy to understand! Your video production is amazing! Take care and have a blessed day. - Ed
This one took some time to edit so thanks for noticing!
I suddenly need to build barn doors for a house that we don’t have. 😂 saving this video for a future project!
Looks great
Hello my friend.
Installation and construction of the barn door. I watched a successful study. It always works great. thank you for sharing. See you. Great greetings.
Thanks for checking it out!
Easy peazy! Doing that tomorrow! I've been procrastinating...silly me.😊
Beutifull and seems effortless 👌💪
Great how to video! I'm looking at building my own barn door also and wanted to see different ways of building one! Thanks again! Also, I SUBBED!!
This is definitely the easier of the videos even considering building the door LOL others remove the casing which I am trying to avoid doing. I might just use wood filler and paint to hide the old hinge areas.
Nice job, I do like the look. definitely 👍👍
Thanks! I'm enjoying it so far
Nice looking door! 👍
Thanks man!
great work buddy. looks real good 👍👍
Thanks man, I appreciate it
I just bought a new home and I have no door in my master bedroom leading to the sinks (but there is a door that goes in to the toilet/shower area.) After watching this video I'll definitely be building similar to this soon!!! Great job on the video and beautiful door!!
Great job. Good quality video/editing as well
Thank you! 😁
and he didn't have to remove the old door jam! Definitely trying this...
PERFECT,, TY.
Very nice video, we’re making one for our pantry, heading to Menards shortly! Good job👊👊
Thank you! It still works/looks like a charm - 3 years later. Enjoy
Wow! How simple was that? Awesome look! Can't wait to start ours in Big Bear California!
Thank you! Good luck, it's not difficult at all!
For extra strength holding the boards together, you should have run the three horizontal pieces all the way across and then shortened the length of your two outside vertical pieces to fit in between the 3 horiztonal pieces. The reason being is that the 2 vertical pieces are doing nothing to strengthen the door. They just are trim on the outside.
I would consider doing the stiles and rails on both sides and capping the edges . I'm wondering if this warped
Nice!
This looks awesome! (And I love the handle.)
I wish there was a good spot for some barn doors in this house, but alas, no dice.
Haha thanks! This is literally the only spot for one in this house, so we took advantage.
How do you measure how high the rail needs to go so when you attach the bearings to the door it ends up at just the right height
So affordable and swift
Nice 👍🏽
Wow, just got an estimate for $2145.00 for the same exact thing. Glad I found your video. I will give this a go myself. Cheers!
Just finished this build. All in it was a few hundred to a thousand dollars cheaper than buying a pre-fab from an online vendor! My only comments would be that I opted for a 2x4 header board instead of a 1" since the track hardware never aligned with the studs. It just seemed that the 2x4 would hold the track/door better than the 1x6. Thanks for posting the links to the parts.
Great vid. Checked my local home depot for materials list. Very expensive wow!! Almost cheaper to buy one but I love the feeling of diy
Prices of lumber have gone up atleast twice by now due to covid
1st. Well, the first real person. Great work, really enjoyed the process. Cheers, Huw
LOL you mean "Music" isn't a real person 😂. Thanks!
is that your Pops man, i love your work and this whole vibe in the video
Love it! Who's your helper? 🤣 He's been in a few videos lately.
🤣 I think he's moving in
Had to take the bar back off to slide on the stoppers. should almost slide them on and into the rough area that they will sit and then put up the bar. Also what about the floor guide? How did you do your groove for the guide to slide into?
Nice finish on the wood!
Hello, Great video. I'm thinking of making a barn door in my bedroom. The opening is 47 X 81. Do they have sliding rails for an opening that big? I might have missed it on the video, but what type of wood did you get? Thanks
awesome. what grit sanding blocks do you use?
What type of wood did you use? Looks great.
Love the video wish you would have actually listed all the wood in the details
Quedó muy linda. Qué medidas tendría las maderas que van al medio y al rededor de la puerta?
I would love to see another video of you doing EXACTLY that but instead of for a door making them barn shutters for windows (to open and close and let light in as you please)
That would be AWESOME! I have a room I'll be turning into a movie room soon and that could be a great way to block off the sunlight completely - rather than blinds.
@@KellyConcepts Make. It. Happen!
Brazil y Love you
Can I use these tracks for outdoor shed ?
Great job and great video! I have a question. I built doors like this with t & g pine about 5 years ago and also used the same hardware. I glued the t & g together. About a year later, a couple of the vertical boards split. I realized then that I should not have glued the t & g to each other, but only glue the face boards to the t & g. When boards dry, they shrink in width, but not in length. The vertical t & g boards want to shrink while the horizontal face boards won't. Since the t & g boards are connected to each other and trying to pull apart and the horizontals won't let them, they are forced to split since the glue is so strong. Did you have any issues with splitting?
This is what I’ve been looking for. Great tutorial. One question though, what about sap?
tree sap? the only time I've had sap on a project is a headboard and it's actually pretty cool and unique - even 5 years later.
Inspect the wood carefully when you buy it to avoid that issue though - I've done probably 20+ projects with basic pine and my only issue came from my first one (the headboard).
Awesome video, very helpful build video. I have a question, is the tongue and groove suppose to fit nice and snug or should there be play in it? Bought some from HD and they weren’t snug at all.
There will be a little play in it - especially since some of the boards will be warped even if you try to pick the best ones. I used a ratchet strap to keep them snug and secure while I fastened on the border boards with glue and nails.
What size drill bit did you use to make the holes for the door handle and for the rail??
Hi, best video I have watched! Would it be possible to finish the inside of the door with the outside trim and center piece as well? Or would this not work with the hardware you used?
Thank you! Adding trim to the back wouldn't work very easily because the bolts for the rail hardware aren't long enough and if you have trim around your opening on the wall, it will hit against that. This only sets away from the wall trim by a quarter of an inch or so.
I have a porch that only has storm doors that open to the outside. Reason is the concrete floor on porch is angle down toward the exterior doors/walls. I'm wanting to do these barn doors on the inside but needs to be weatherproof as well. That possible?
Love the video. Have a few questions. Im very new to woodworking so forgive me if the question is obvious. 1st...are you putting the boarder frame boards directly on top of the tongue and grove board? Wont that change the thickness of the door when u are nailing the bracket roller on? 2nd. My doorway opening is 47inches so should the width of my door be 51inches? 3rd..i dont have a thick moulding around the doorway so will i still need a board to hang the rail on? With the rail board and the complete door what thickness will i need to look for..meaning does the rail need to stick out to the same thickness if the completed door (tongue and groove with board glued and nail on top) sorry for so many questions.
Nice job and looks great. Did you use anything at the bottom to stop the door from swaying? I’m about to make a similar door and wondering if I need to drill into my floor. I have 2 kids around your little one’s age and I obviously don’t want them messing with it. Thanks.
Thank you Jason! The door kit I used came with 2 different types of bottom door brackets that keep it from swaying. The bracket has a wheel so the door rolls along side it. One is for fastening to the floor and the other is for fastening to the wall/trim and it extends under and around the face of the door (which is what I used).
Additionally, and I still need to this to mine, there are little disk to install at the top of the door that will make it where the door can't be lifted off the rails - huge safety issue here. Also included in most kits.
Did you use a guide rail at the bottom?
Where do you find tongue and groove that is smooth on both sides? Lowe’s and Home Depot have rough cut on one side.
I cannot find the materials list anywhere? Love this door
What color stain did you use? Did you use SYP for the trim boards or some type of white wood?
Looks amazing and love the color,
one question:
What are you planing to do with the door frame that still has the holes from the hinges ??
Thank you! I have added some wood filler and smoothed it out to match the frame. If someone looks closely, they can still see the outline but they'd have to know to look for it.
I was just going to ask this question. Great video!
Hello great video! I have been banging my head trying to figure out a good design for the same exact dimensions. I do have a quick question- I am not finding the material (lumber) list in the video, Ive watched a couple times and dont know what I am missing. Could you provide that?
Hey Dan! Definitely.
-Tongue and groove from Home Depot/Lowes - they're about $6 each here. 1x6 size.
-The border trims are 1x4s.
-Middle trim is 1x6 (dont remember why I switched up size here but I like it)
-Rail wood is 1x6
All of the wood is the basic whitewood from the hardware store. Lightweight, cheap, and has wood knots which I like.
I do need to put together a more detailed instruction in my description and will get on that!
Thanks for watching!
Is the door spaced away from the trim around the doorway? Seems there are capped nuts on the bolts for the hangers that would hit the trim.
Did you install the door guide on the floor?
How much of a gap is there between the barn door and trim? Thanks
Hi what kind of door can I use with this?
Is there a list where i can see the exact size of materials with details down to size of every wooden board, lug bolts and everything else you used?
What is the best hardware to use. We recently bought and assembled a barn door from Amazon but the screws don't seem to hold. So now we are planning to mount the 2x4 for a more secure fit.
What did you use to secure the rail tot the header board? I couldn't quite see in the video. My rail came with lag bolts. In theory, I feel that they are long enough to go through the header board and the rails with spacers but that kinda defeats the purpose of the header board right?
How did you stabilize the bottom of door
did you install a stopped on the floor?
Question, would this be considered fine woodworking or finished carpentry? I want to work specifically on barn doors but dont know what direction to take
How do you keep the door from swinging out?
It the some kind of guide on the floor?
What size lag screws for the header board to the studs ?
