Measure and cut two lengths of mounting board for each barn door.
How to install a barn door inside your house.
We recently removed a pocket door and left the doorway open as we knew we were going to install one in that location.
It seems one of the biggest trends lately is installing a barn door inside to either add a decorative element add some privacy or in our case cut down on noise.
The boards should be as long as the doors and about 1 inch or 4 cm wider than the track.
For double doors locate the studs on both sides of the door opening.
For single doors start about three or four inches up on the hinge side of the door opening and continue for the length of the backer board.
Use the stud finder to locate and mark the studs above the door.
