Your barn door looks fantastic! I’m impressed with this woman’s carpentry skills!

This lady is a rock star. Holy cow. Kid's running around, roofers are going to town and she's just like - "well, let's remove the doorframe". So inspirational!

I love you. This was exactly what i needed

Hahaha! The Unprofessional...with professional tools and equipment! That's like a casual bike rider with a $12,000 Bianchi bicycle.

Gosh you are so calm and I like your dry sense of humor 🙂Excellent solution to a closet in the corner of the room near the bed where the room isn't wide enough to allow to open regular doors! xx

Unprofessional? Girl you kick @$$ !🙏

Great video full of good advice and it's great to see someone who uses their hands in a video. In the real world, working with gloves and goggles makes it impossible to see or feel whats going on around you. I've cut myself a million times but the closes I ever came to loosing my life was with a chain saw, when I cut through a cable I didn't see with goggles on, as they restricted my view south of the lens line where it fixes around the nose.

Good job...and idea because she has a narrow hallway....and the barn style doors are excellent for that issue.

thank you !, this is what i needed! in the future I will put sliding doors in one of the bathrooms (under renovation at the moment); in the closet and in the media room

Fabulous ! That's what he's suppose to say . Not , hey it works ! Your very talented and hard working. Salute !!👍👏👏👏

Nice easy fix for short people...

Nice job! Good use of safety equipment as well.

Great info. I love that you can use a standard size door. I hope to do this for my laundry closet. I say closet because small space with bi-fold doors.

I love how your husband called it the moment of reckoning 😂! That’s how my boyfriend thinks when he sees it my projects turn out functional. Great job on this.

needed a new idea to cover our furnace closet because the new furnace sticks out all the way to the edge of the wall this will be perfect to replace the bifold door we had before. good video.

I have a very similar issue in my home and your video had his helped a lot. Thank you.

Great job love seeing women do things themselves.

AWESOME WORK! Love it!

So cool that this looks rather simple.

Great video.We bought a home that was built in1980 and the washer and dryer hook-ups are in the hallway, so I was looking for some ideas.

Awesome outcome. My house has two corners that have exactly the same situations, I'm happy to give them a go

Great job!

Like it, you made it so easy. Now you gave me thinking that I can do that.

Nice!!!!! Great video greatest Ideas

My heart was filled to know that your precious baby boy will grow to be a skilled craftsman...God bless your beautiful family...and thanks for a great space saving idea...will have installed in smaller basement...

Omg you are awesome, I can barely hung a picture frame :)

Awesome Job!! You shamed me into completing the project now!!

Thank you for this! We had similar issue

That came out beautiful ❤️❤️

Thanks! I needed this vid :)

Great job! I need you to come here in Virginia & put a barn door on for me. It is so hard to find anybody to do anything especially since this epidemic. You really did a great job. Hats off to you! Stay safe & God bless

Very nice. I love the look of a louvered door. Your tip about dropping the door opening down to accommodate a regular door is super. I have a Restore Store near me, and can probably purchase an inexpensive used door from them for my own barn door project. I was holding my breathe vvatching you vvork sans eye protection, and also thought it might've been a good idea to have on vvork gloves for the demo part. (Sorry, my "VV" key is broken.)

Nice Work Mom!!! Great Job!!!

New subscriber. Awesome job and everything looks great.

Beautiful 🌸

This was very cool. good video.

Great video

Helllo! Fantastic job! Confidence engaged

Thanks, now I know how to do my barndoor from watching your video. I didn't understand the directions that came with mine. So I have been doing other projects instead.

GREAT VIDEO

How could anyone give her a thumbs down ...haters ..she great

Very nice ...... first time seeing this video I'm hoping soon that my husband and I will finally get ours done in our kitchen. I keep telling him that I want barn sliding door that'll give us more space as apposed to the swinging doors. Hopefully😊

So motivational seeing a mom do this. I love doing DIYs but my husband hates for me to ask for help sometimes (works 2 fulltime jobs). This seems doable!!

Cool I wish I could do stuff like you do 👍👍

Just subscribed. Thanks so much..

Love it

Great video, thanks for sharing! Not as big of a job as I originally thought it might be, and not as expensive either. :~)

Muchas gracias. Perfecto.👌

Now that looks fun, I wish I could get away with doing something like this because not one bifold or slide door's we're installed properly in this cheaply made apartment building! But I'm sure I'd get caught dragging the old door's out and get charged for the damage even tho there damaged all ready 🤷‍♀️ thanks for the video and ever little bit helps

Get it girl!

I put one in my bathroom the door swung into toilet i didnt tear up trim though i put over head with a backer board so it went over trim.

Another awesome job, Lara, Adam and R! I nearly put in a bid on a fix-er-upper in Hville, today. If I pull the trigger someday, I'll definitely reach out for some cooperative design consultations. Hopefully, I'll qualify for the friend pricing scale ;).

Great idea.

Great tutorial! Did you install a floor guide to keep the for from swinging out?

You are amazing.

What a cute "country" alternative 2 an othRwise uneventful entry! 1st time 2 Ur channL N I subscribed! Thanks 4 the Inspiration, L

I think you are my new hero. I'm scared to death of power tools, but I fancy myself handy. I'd like to remove a hinged bedroom door because the room is small and the swing into the room obtrusive; I'm considering a barn door but it'd have to track in the hallway, not in the bedroom, and I wonder about that view from the bedroom looking out when closed. Is it weird? People use these generally for closets and pantries or rooms that don't often get used; this bedroom is used daily. What of the view from inside your bathroom? Is it weird? I'd need a handle on the inside to get out too.

I definitely need this for my restroom in our small apartment ...nicely done

I think the barn doors are great if you have pets....because many pets cannot open a standard door or turn a door knob if they need to get in or out in an emergency...with barn doors they can take their paw pads and push...pull...or slide the door open. I also like them because they take up less space when open...also folding doors are really good too.

Great idea

You're so patient...good job...question, you didn't show you installed the door glide stabilizers at the bottom on your wood floor. Did You? and what does one need to do if there is carpet instead. Do you really need glides at the bottom? Thanks!

I'm very impress Its my diy project

I'm going to do this with A lot of my doors in my home. Your then little helper is So Cute! I'm sure he's a little older Cute too🤗🦊

Your awesome

The right tools always make the project run smoother. I guess if I had a suggestion for your viewers it would be to wear eye protection when popping frames out, that errant piece of paint, wood splinter could send someone right to the ER, wasting perfectly good handyperson time!

Why you would ever install a barn door on a bathroom that cannot easily be locked and passes sound through like crazy is beyond me...looks nice though. Great job on the work!

I love the baby does not bother you at all while running back and forth...he doesnt know it yet but he may be doing this same work soon enough...

Good job good job I am interested to do this job between living room and dining room I have a dog father and son they not getting along because of female thank you have a good day 💡💪👌👍👍👍👍👍

Don't forget to mount the anti jump discs at the top. without them the door can jump off the track and fall off.

Cool

this was very informational thank you! any reason you chose to use a barn door vs pocket door? trying to decide for myself. thanks!

Hello are the hardwares for a sliding door different from the barn door? I live in PH and this doors are not that of a main thing here but I am really looking forward with having one made for a reno in our house. Thanks kindly.

One tip the barn door manufacturer gave me because I have steel behind the wall instead of 2 x 4's was to use PL Premium on the back of the header.

Thanks for this great video. I think I'll still get a professional in. Did you get a lock for the door?

You didn't put the guide track in at the bottom. For will swing out at the bottom. There was also a large gap at the bottom.

use safety glasses to protect your eyes. Use a ladder to bring you up to your work to avoid having a hand tool fall on your head. This is a super tutorial.

I've scanned and briefly watched alot of "professional" videos on this subject and it's been quite frustrating because they're long and complicated. Yours is the first that is UNprofessional (lol) and gets right to the point. I'm going to put the track up now! Thanks :). P.S. The ONLY thing that I would have loved to see is how your door matched up with the trim at the bottom to see if it rolled without obstruction. I noticed that the door in the video had to stop at the light switch so I'm curious to see if trim was the same at the bottom and had to be removed. I have trim and I'm not sure if it has to be removed OR if the door has to be raised to clear it.

Nice video! Question, how much space do the tracks above the door take? I have an 86.5" ceiling and was wondering if I have enough space.

Thanks for the tutorial. What color paint was used and where is it from?

Great - thanks for the ideas - how do you lock it on the inside ?

Good job love the color choice. Can you lock barn doors?

Way to go, your door looks great! Now why didn't you patch the wall and paint prior to installing moldings back? Regardless the finish product looks really good with that kind of door.

Awesome tutorial! Thank you. Confused why other installations videos on YT show the requirement to remove the trim (but then don't show like you did how to take it all off - so thank you). I want THAT track if you don't -need- to remove the trim. haha Anyway, thanks for a brilliant video!!!!

I’m in

So what did you use to lock up the door when someone is inside using the restroom? Any locking mechanism you I talked with the barnyard door? Just curious?

Thanks for the video!!! Where did you get your hardware?

How close to the corner does the track go? I would like to put a barn door on the entryway of our hallway, but it is a corner.

Where did you get the door you use and where did you purchase it? I am needing a similar door, as I have the same type of louvered doors in my bedroom. Love the look! Thanks!

What size nails did you out in your nailer for the inside casing?

We had to redo my sons room because of mold but i guess my husband didnt realize that the closet door iant a lets go to menards and get it ? So now i have no dolr on my closet .

Love the outcome but a little lost since you said you were going to use the door you had. So the reason in removing the original gram and bringing the header down was to fit the actual door size or a new door in another size. Can I use my 24X80 door following this video. Sorry a newbie to all this. Thank you

safety glasses!

Can you lock the door since it does not fit into the door frame?

its there anything we can use to prevent to get out of riel?, safety thing with kids

How wide was your door?

That looks good. But, I wonder if we have wheel slider on the top of the door only or do we need to have another slider at the bottom of the door also?

Would be nice to add a latch on the inside to prevent the door from sliding while in use, ie a lock.

Your installation is amazing, i have encountered the problem is the balance when i install, is there any simple tactics that the barn door can be vertical stand without leaning inwards.

Does the door still hit the light switch? That is what I wondered about while you were getting ready to do it. I wonder about what kind of latch you would put on the inside to keep people from walking in.It is still an improvement and solved your problem.

You know Ruben did most of the work 😆
