Modern Barn Doors: Where do they work best?

Barn doors are no longer just for barns! Modernized styles for barn doors are popping up everywhere, and the updated style makes a beautiful statement in homes.

Adding sleek barn doors to your home is a simple way to add style and function to sliding doors. There are many ways to use barn doors in your home. Below we’ve put together a list describing where we think they work best.

Bathrooms

Using barn doors as a door for your bathroom adds character while remaining on-trend. Using our barn door track kit, you can customize your bathroom door to match your style. To achieve a modern barn door look, consider a simple black door with no added details.

Use a rustic door with added wood finishes or details for a traditional barn door look. You can also use paint to add a pop of color.

A barn door takes up less space than a conventional swing door, so it’s ideal for a half-bath or smaller bathroom. Our Barn Door Track Kit is low profile and works well in tight spaces.

Room Divider

For a more dramatic look with barn doors, you can use barn doors as a large room divider. Using two sets of barn door tracks, you can attach two doors to separate large rooms.

Using barn doors in this manner helps to add depth to a room while being functional. For noisy spaces, the doors allow as a sound barrier. So next time the kids decide to have a big sleepover party in the living room, just slide the barn doors closed to quiet things down.

Like with bathrooms, the barn doors provide a space to add style to your home. Paint the doors, add character using wood accents, or keep it modern with dark, sleek colors.
