LOVE the barn door!

5 years ago

I notice there’s a piece on the floor at the exposed corner of the door. Does that piece guide the doors so it doesn’t swing out when opening/closing? Curious to know how this functions. Thx.

Hi Deb - Great to hear of your interest! That guide you're seeing is sitting below the door mounted to the floor. A small vertical pin fits into a track on the underside of the door providing a more precise door action.

It’s a lovely door. I’m looking for something similar for my closet. Where can I find this or something similar?
