Barn Doors: One of the Hottest Trends in Interior Design

Sliding barn doors are a huge trend in the interior design world, mostly due to the increased popularity of farmhouse-style homes. Sliding barn doors are a great option for small spaces like bathrooms or hallways that can be easily blocked by a door that swings open. Barn doors can also be great for large, open spaces as they can be left open to provide a comfortable flow from one room to the other or closed to divide the room into separate areas.

Why Sliding Barn Doors?

Barn doors have many benefits for both style and functionality. Barn doors are incredibly stylish on their own and can be easily styled to further fit any aesthetic you want.

Saving Space

Sliding barn doors take up a lot less space than traditional swinging doors. When hung on a rail over the doorway, they hug the wall as you slide them open, clearing the door frame so you have more room to move through. This also clears needed square footage to place furniture as you see fit, without the worry that it will impede the opening or closing of a swinging door.

Functionality & More Light

Sliding barn doors aren’t just for style, they are also available in dozens of designs that add functionality to your space. Whether you want solid wood panels for privacy, or you’d like to preserve light flow and lines of sight with window panes. Sliding barn doors are a great option to open your space and increase the amount of light that comes in.
