    A great alternative to both pocket and traditional sliding doors, interior barn doors offer are less expensive and easier to install than pocket doors, while retaining the space-saving benefits of pocket doors. Interior barn doors are available as both single and double-door systems, and can also be purchased in a variety of materials, giving homeowners plenty of options when it comes to design. Read on to learn more about interior barn doors for your home.

    The Basics of Interior Barn Doors

    Much like pocket doors, interior barn doors slide on a track system, rather than swinging outward. This quality keeps them flush to your walls wall and out of the way. Since they slide against the outside of the wall, there are less construction requirements when installing this type of door.

    Because of their rustic and natural appearance, homeowners often choose to use barn doors to separate master bedrooms and baths. Interior bar doors also fit nicely in a bi-parting two door design to add elegance to large doorway spaces for rooms like the living room or dining room. While barn doors conserve floor space, homeowners should still consider keeping the wall space on either side of the doors clear, as the doors will cover up this space when they slide open.

    General Costs and Materials for Interior Barn Doors

    All interior barn doors require the same basic materials for a track and roller system to operate. However, the final cost of interior barn doors tends to range widely, depending on factors like the door material, the door size, and the quality of hardware. A very basic and modern alternative to traditional woods, an aluminum door and track system starts around $250. However, interior barn doors really look best when constructed from a classic wood material. Authentic doors made from hardwoods, which will create a more natural effect, start around $500, and can run as high as $1,000 or more.

    For more decorative interior barn doors with custom glass panels, prices begin between $300 and $700.

    Bottom Line: A Rustic, Refreshing Alternative to Standard Doors

    With its ease of access and simpler installation process, interior barn doors are an excellent alternative to other conventional and well-established door styles. Interior barn doors can be a unique, eye-catching addition to a master bedroom, a living room or dining room, or other spaces in your home that might benefit from a double doorway.
