Materials
You’ll have to do the math yourself to determine amount of materials you’ll need but here’s what you’ll need:
1x6 Pine for the frame and brace
1x6 T&G “Pattern Board” We use V-groove on one side and bead-board on the other but there a many types.
Where to find barn door hardware
Don’t overpay for your barn door hardware. The best variety and pricing that I have found is on Amazon, where you can get a good set of hardware for around $50.
This is our normal hardware: U-MAX 8 FT Heavy Duty Sliding Barn Door Hardware Kit.
