Review on SMARTSTANDARD 42x84 Sliding Barn Door Kit: DIY Unfinished Solid Spruce Wood Panelled Slab, K-Frame, Natural Finish - Includes 7ft Hardware & Handle by Troy Coste

Revainrating 3 out of 5

This is a very HEAVY door

I like the look of this door, once installed. The door requires full assembly, which wasn't too difficult. BUT it is SOOOO heavy! If I had it to do again, I would order a track system and purchase a lighter door at Home Depot. I made sure to install a 1" x 4" x 7' board to the wall studs before installing the track system (this was not an anticipated install, but recommended in the instructions that came with the door). After that, the track system was pretty easy to install. We whitewashed the pine door and it turned out nice, I think.
