How to Make a Rustic Barn Door
Posted by Alex Tarsha on
In this video, we show you how we built a barn door for our shop bathroom. We went super simple and used a left over piece of galvanized roofing from an old chicken coop when we moved in and some scrap 1x4 and 1x6 lumber cleaned up on the planer. Emily applied a single coat of stain and Alex hung it on the locally sourced barn door hardware. This went super quick and easy. Total cost was $50 plus tax for the barn door hardware, and $0 for the scrap lumber and galvanized. We then splurged on some black iron pipe fittings to make a door handle.
