Mounting over a bay window.
Is 68 lbs too heavy for barn door over stairway.
The barn door hardware is placed on the exterior of the.
Area you want it installed.
Of weight along the header.
You do not need to remove the trim.
I have calculated i need 12 hardware.
As you can see there s not much space for a door to swing.
Barn door installation without removing door trim just a quick spackle.
We would generally want to have the door open most of the time thus the door should be out of the way when open.
Maybe it just slides an inch maybe it opens all the way.
Take a look at the photos and let me know what thought.
A top landing is not required where a stairway of not more than two risers is located on the exterior side of the door provided that the door does not swing over the stairway.
I am mounting shutters using the same hardware used for barn door sliders.
We d love to to add a door to the bottom of this stairway if possible.
The great thing about installing a sliding barn door is that it provides a parallel diffusion.
The nice thing about the jeld wen barn door kit is you can install the door right over your existing door trim.
However it is very possible for the door you ve selected to be too heavy for the.
We removed the standard sized existing basement door as well as the door hinges.
What i need to know is if the window is surrounded by 3 4 trim and the shutters are 1 and 3 4 thick can i mount the hardware to the wall with enough space to run the shutters back and forth over the window opening or do i absolutely have to.
In the past i ve had to shout a warning when i heard someone coming up the stairs.
