Rockler: Rolling barn door picks up momentum

Rockler Woodworking and Hardware introduced Rolling Barn Door Hardware Kits.

The kits are described as complete sets of mounting hardware that allow DIYers to securely hang their own rolling barn-style door in any interior doorway which offers sufficient space for the door to slide to the side. 

Since the door glides open to the side instead of swinging open, the Rolling Barn Door Hardware is especially useful in narrow spaces and other areas where a swinging door is not feasible. The door glides on a smooth Quiet Glide rolling track system, which results in whisper-quiet operation, the company said.

"Rolling Barn Door Hardware is a stylish, decorative door solution that also makes the best use of limited space," says Steve Krohmer, Rockler's VP of product marketing. "The fact that the door glides open to the side eliminates the issue of swing clearance, which is a huge advantage when space is at a premium."

The Rolling Barn Door Hardware Kits feature a black finish and are available in four styles – Round Stick (56500), Horseshoe (53578), and Rectangle (57686) retail for $289, and Hammered Spade (57053) for $399.
