Door & Hardware Spotlight: Z Barn Door + Vintage Hardware Kit

Nov 17th 2020

Show off your home’s country cottage charm with a quaint plank door and hardware kit that pulls you into the world of fairy gardens and buzzing bee afternoons. Our barn door product spotlight duo inspires plenty of creativity to upgrade your home space as much or as little as you want. This ideal match, which highlights a playful nature, pays homage to everything from picturesque English gardens to wildflower meadows around a country farmhouse.

The Z Barn Door

Our Z Barn Door reveals rich details in its construction. From the materials to the finish, the Z Barn Door has the decorative essence for transforming your home. Whether you're dreaming of decor changes for one room or you want to recreate your entire interior design style, you'll love what the Z Barn Door brings to the drawing table.

Picture this full plank door as the entry to your arts and crafts room. Here, it fires up your imagination before you even step into your creative space. You might also love using the Z Barn Door as a double set for your living room or reading room. If you have a sunroom or enclosed patio, think of how grand it would be to open two Z Barn Doors to reveal a sun-drenched space. When you're welcomed by flower blossoms and healthy green foliage, you'll think you've stepped into a magical world.

Specifications and Sizing

The Z Barn Door has wood planks made from solid western red knotty alder, an attractive species with subtle patterning and a moderately straight grain. Solid planks run top to bottom, revealing delicate graining in two different looks: Barn Wood Knotty Alder and Rustic Knotty Alder. For attractive knots and whorls around the grain, choose the Rustic Knotty Alder. For straight graining with a beautiful weathered texture, choose the Barn Wood Knotty Alder.

We use 3/4-inch planks for the door and 1-inch planks for the cross rails that make the distinctive "Z" pattern. Each door has our Z pattern on the front side only, with the back side featuring solid vertical planking.

The Z Barn Door comes in a variety of widths, from 24 inches—perhaps for a narrow hall closet or larder—to 60 inches—a generous size that brings instant charm to any room, like a master bedroom overlooking a butterfly rose garden. The door can be left unfinished, or it can come in one of our finishing options. For an attractive country cottage look, try the Antique Canyon Brown, Antique Cinnamon, or Antique Sierra Brown.

The Vintage Hardware Kit

We think our Vintage Hardware Kit makes the perfect accompaniment to the Z Barn Door. This kit has oversize rollers and a solid central base, and the overall design transports you to rustic villages where the blacksmith forge rings with the sounds of hammer on anvil.

This kit brings out the vintage charm of the Z Barn Door and gives it a kiss of country life. We love this pairing, but we also think it works amazingly well with a variety of sliding doors. From the Fleetwood MDF to the X Blackboard or Modern French 8 Lite, our barn doors each bring a different look to the Vintage hardware kit.

Specifications and Sizing

The Vintage rolling hardware kit measures 13 1/2-inches long and 5-inches wide, and it extends 2 1/4 inches from the wall. We offer two heavy-duty steel rail sizes: 78 3/4 inches and 100 inches. The latter is perfect for a double set of Z Barn Doors.

Our Vintage hardware kit contains:

  • Two rollers
  • Pre-drilled rail
  • Stoppers
  • Anti-jump disc
  • C-floor glider
  • Screws and nuts

The Z Barn Door and the Vintage Hardware Kit make a beautiful sliding door combination. We love this duo and hope that it brightens your day, every day. Contact us to learn more about these and our other quality products at Barndoorz.
