- Artisan Hardware Aspen Barn Door Hardware Kit - 

DIY - Reclaimed Wood - Install


A friend of ours found an old shed or barn door tucked away in his garage and was going to toss it out so we have had it leaning against the wall in our office/school room with the intent to make it a functional sliding door to hide an attic space opening.  We finally bought the necessary hardware at Menards and installed it!

Here is a video of the process:

The Aspen Sliding Barn Door Hardware Kit was designed and crafted to capture a cabin feel and bring it into the common home. The spoke wheel is made in a foundry, designed and made to look rustic yet function in a modern capacity. The wheel is accompanied with 3.5” faceplate, with three holes for maximum strength capacity. The barn door hardware is often best emphasized when installed on a large or reclaimed lumber door, allowing the spoke wheel and wide strap to flow with the size and style of any sliding barn door

However, this door hardware can accompany any of our sliding barn doors. Designed, manufactured, and approved by Artisans.

Whether hanging the hardware in a cabin, rustic home, or contemporary setting, it’s high aesthetic features, large wheels, and high strength capacity makes it the perfect fit.
