6ft Heavy Duty Double Door Sliding Barn Door Hardware Kit

Ensuring Stability and Safety of Doors

In order to guarantee the stability and safety of your door, it is important to consider a few key elements of the installation process. Here are some essential features and tips to keep in mind:

Door Stoppers: The door stoppers included in this kit are designed to slide along the rail and can be tightened at any point to stop your door exactly where you want it. Additionally, these stoppers are cushioned with rubber caps to ensure a quiet and gentle close.

Floor Guide: A T-shaped floor guide is provided with anchors to prevent the door from swinging out or up against the baseboard. This helps to keep the door in place and maintain its stability.

Anti-Jumpers: These small round discs are placed on top of the door and prevent it from being lifted off the rail unless they are turned. This additional security measure adds to the overall safety of the door system.

Headboard Requirement: A headboard may be necessary if the studs do not align with the pre-drilled holes in the rail, or if there is a doorway trim. In the latter case, if the combined depth of the door and trim is greater than 2 inches, a headboard will be needed for proper installation.

Space Above Doorway: A minimum clearance of 5 inches is required from the top of the door to the ceiling or crown molding for this kit to fit correctly. This ensures that there is enough room for the door to operate smoothly.

Door Thickness Compatibility: This kit is designed to work with doors of various thicknesses. The included bolts support a range of 1 3/8" to 1 3/4", but adjustments can be made for thicker doors by countersinking the bolt head or using longer bolts from a hardware store. Additionally, the spacing between the door and the wall or trim may need to be adjusted based on the door thickness.

By considering these factors and following the installation instructions provided, you can ensure the stability and safety of your door system. This modern barn door kit offers a stylish and space-saving solution for various rooms in your home, with a durable construction and smooth operation.
