How to Order: Barn Door

1. Measure the Door Opening
(Finished Opening)
This is the area that the barn door will cover when closed.
- Width: Measure the width of the opening from one side of the finished trim (or wall edge) to the other. Do this is 3 spots (top, middle, bottom) and use the widest measurement.
- Height: Measure from the finished floor to the top of the trim (or the top of the opening). Measure on both the left and right side and use the tallest measurement.
2. Add Overlap for Full Coverage
To ensure privacy and a complete seal, add to your measurements:
- Width: Add 2-4 inches to each side (total of 4-8 inches) so the barn door slab overlaps the opening. Standard overlap: 2" per side. Example: If your opening is 36", a 40" wide slab works well.
- Height: Add 1" above the opening to ensure coverage. Subtract 1/2" to 1" from the bottom to allow for floor clearance (especially if flooring varies).
3. Final Door Slab Size
- Width = Opening width + 4"-6" for overlap
- Height = Opening height + 1" overlap - 1/2" floor clearance

If there's no trim, measure wall edge to wall edge.
For double barn doors, divide the total width (plus overlap) by 2.
Always verify ceiling height for track clearance (usually needs 6-7" above the door for hardware).
