3 Things To Consider When Selecting Sliding Barn Doors For Your Sacramento House
Whether you just moved into your new home in the Sacramento area or looking to redecorate a room, sliding barn doors are a beautiful choice. But how do you choose a sliding barn door that goes with your décor? And where should get started?
Think about these 3 things when picking barn doors.
1. Barn Doors Are Perfect For Almost Any Room
The Bathroom. Sliding barn doors as bathroom doors can provide privacy with the right hardware. And barn doors are easy to slide. That comes in handy, especially if you have toddlers undergoing potty training. Keep in mind that the barn door may not create the tightest seal to the opening due to how the track is installed.
The Living Room. Sliding barn doors are a great solution when you want to separate the living room from the adjacent hallway or the dining room. You’ll want to select a barn door style that goes with your living room furniture.
The Bedroom. Here you’re looking for sliding barn doors that add a sense of calm to the room as well as privacy. Wooden barn doors block most of the light from the windows - and from other rooms. And the bedroom feels warmer just by adding this wooden design element.
The Pantry. Sliding barn doors work great as pantry doors, especially since the pantry commonly faces the kitchen or a dining table. Glide them closed to hide the disorganized shelf of snacks. And roll them open to grab your Bosch mixer.
2. New Ways To Use Barn Doors
Traditionally, sliding barn doors have been mounted over a doorway. Barn doors save space in rooms where swinging a door outwardly is limiting. And with the sliding barn door being the focus when you enter and exit the room, it’s essential that you choose one that goes with the the room’s furniture.
You can also use sliding barn doors to cover a window. And our team will adjust the barn door panels to the window and the frame’s specifications. One of the great things about barn door window treatments is that you can easily match their style to the existing sliding barn door in the room!
