Dont buy this item. Misleading delivery date. Save yourself the headache. Returns are just as bad as item. Get a real door. Poor quality. You get what you pay for. Classic example. If you do get it, request to have package shipped by anyone besides UPS // they are horrible.
Was debating if i should buy this online vs. in store but Im glad i bought it online. the quality is great and just as good as the ones i saw in store but slightly cheaper. I bought 1 first. After setting it up i ordered 2 more for every bedroom closet. I painted it to match rooms.
The door looks beautiful painted barn red and hanging in our living room! The assembly was very easy and solid. The only issue I had was with the screws. The instructions and a video I found show someone using a standard screwdriver like its a piece of cake. The screws are deeply recessed and are very tough to screw in by hand. At 10 per door, thats a lot of work! I finally used a power drill with a borrowed extended screwdriver attachment, but still had issues. I was worried that some of the screws were not installed at a depth deep enough for the wood plugs to be installed over them, so I omitted the plugs altogether. I wish there were helpful hints or warnings about that portion of the project. Otherwise, Im really happy with the results.
The price of barn doors are all over the place. This is a low priced one. This one comes in pieces and has to be assembled. Not hard but you have to be prepared that you will have to assemble about 20 pieces into a nice looking door. (not counting screws and dowels.) Good instructions included.
It comes unfinished. I stained the pieces before assembling and that made it an easy, low skilled, job. And you get to pick the color. Could be painted. Very satisfied with the finished door.
It is designed as a barn door so the dimensions and the details are there. No cutting or routing required.
Much less expensive than what you might source yourself at the local HD or Lowes. Easy to assemble, so long as you drill a couple of pilot holes for the longer screws. Trust me / do not get it into your head to just start screwing these things in without a bit of prep work. Takes paint really well.
I was hesitant to purchase not knowing how the door would stain, but I couldnt be more pleased with it! I have recommended to several friends it have been a huge focal point in our new home. Only suggestion is use a long drill bit/ screws to keep the door from separating, other then that would buy again!
We were very excited about this purchase. It wasnt as easy as the videos led us to believe. After a few hours of trying to get the edges of the door on we removed the felt black inserts and everything went together. We decided to stain after assembling the door, after reading a few of the reviews that mentioned warping of wood after pre staining. All stained and varnished we were ready to install the hard ware. Everything went fine until we went to attach the stoppers. Of course the instructions were lacking but by the looks of the videos they sent us the wrong stoppers.
We are extremely excited about this door. It looks great and well worth the price. Thank goodness my husband has some experience with woodworking and has lots of tools. We would have given it 5 stars had there been better instructions.

Great door / But help yourself out first
