The $40 Modern Barn Door - Easy DIY Project

[@elizabethshemondy4110]

Thank you for not talking for 30 mins and showing us how easy it is

[@richardharris4987]

Awesome job and great looking door. I used this video to make my door as well. I had to custom my door because my opening was 21" wider, so I added the length to my 1X10's and 1X6 header and footer. You gave me the confidence to attempt the build, you made it look super easy. The hardest part for me was getting up and down on the floor. I'm not as young as you, or your project manager.Thanks again

[@tmb9126]

So awesome! Thank you for this. Great looking door, easy instructions, and you don't go and pull out your $1000 tools required so many youtubers do.

[@technology_pro]

Just purchased all the materials from Lowe’s minus stain and glue $104.00.... hanging door hardware $60 off amazon.

[@ccronk04]

Wow! Definitely not 40

[@traciepetty5785]

This is by far the easiest to build and it looks fantastic!

[@faith5897]

I'm so happy I found your channel!!!!! I have never made anything and wanted to start trying. You're videos are so easy to follow! Thank you for sharing!

[@TheRehabLife]

Awesome, good luck with your first project!

[@idas2897]

I love all of their projects. I plan to do one every month! DIY furniture made easy, looks beautiful, and easily understood. I also like the way the videos are done. I'm with a few people on not liking people talking the whole way through and the directions are very simple to follow. Thanks for all the projects and keep them coming!

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks for watching and good luck with all of the builds!

[@shayladavis4785]

Love it. I like the back as the front 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@twes619]

Excellent. I have so much wood laying around my deck and house I can't wait to build a few things this summer from your channel. I love the bathroom rack that has shelves and a towel holder. If people are resourceful, they could do a lot of your projects for almost free. Old wood is everywhere, just gotta know where to look.

[@maggieloy5365]

Thank you! How wonderful and easy you made that. Thank you for your video.

[@duanepaehlig5138]

Great idea, you will be playing peek a boo through the gaps in the boards though when it shrinks. I would add a piece of 1/4" luann plywood between the surrounding 1x6. Other than that its a great idea.

[@robertsims9791]

Nice, I'll be following this video while making my first door. Thank you

[@TheRehabLife]

Good luck with the build!

[@naturalhairdoll4940]

Loved it! Can you guys build a corner storage cabinet (pantry)? I need more space for groceries.

[@ellearmitage2936]

OMG, SUPER CUTE AND EASY TO MAKE.

[@GlueGunsRoses]

I like how this could go with modern or farmhouse styles and it wouldn't look odd in a newer home

[@patrickh4622]

This was great , just built mine and love them! Thank you

[@mahmoodkhan6623]

Great job! You make it look so easy.

[@beautybyleanne76]

I’d flip it around...what your calling the back makes for a far more interesting and attractive front for the door!

[@erikafodor9152]

Bravissimo Lo farò poi ti mando un foto ,il tuo lavoro semplice e chiaro

[@99tombstone]

remodeling our bathroom and will be building a barn door for the towel storage closet , thank you for another design for one

[@mc4kvb]

Another great video! I enjoy your channel very much. I’ve made the coffee table, not the Rustic one but it came out great. I just bought the wood to make the Rustic Barn Door. Thank you so much for all of your videos. They are *really easy to follow* the way you type the instructions on the screen. Good luck and I look forward to many more videos!

[@TheRehabLife]

That's great! Thanks so much for watching...

[@oldguysrock2170]

I have been thinking of buying a sliding door from the big box stores, the the $275 price keeps me from spending that much. I love this plan, very simple and inexpensive.

[@juliapeixoto8341]

Luv, your work, especially your doggy

[@mastersupreme6126]

Lack of imagination and creativity even for a low budget!

[@jeanniemarrocco6271]

Well, it was a great project if used as a tutorial, but certainly not $40. I spent about $70 on basic pine without the rolling hardware. But somethings you might want to know. I would use 1 1/4 inch trim screws. The 1 1/2 inch screws came through the other side. But lots of fun and looks great. Thanks.

[@TheRehabLife]

The cost of wood can vary in different areas, we made ours for $40 but the price can certainly increase in other parts of the country. The video also specifies 1 1/4" trim head screws in the materials list so the they don't come through the other side. Thanks for watching and glad it turned out great!

[@jeanniemarrocco6271]

@@TheRehabLife Thanks again. I love my new doors

[@FranciscoLopez-ch7zz]

It was 40 bucks in out area but it came out great. Thank you for sharing.

[@orlandosilveira3354]

Awesome video! Really helped me to create one

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks for watching!

[@charlespayne6938]

I made sure I added that to my library list because my wife loves the barn doors. Appreciate how you added where to get the hardware from Amazon at a good price. That was GREAT! I also have to make a smaller set of barn doors to hide our tv's. Thanks.

[@yogamuslimah]

Love this!

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks!

[@Bluviolet7392]

Absolutely love it!!! So easy and awesome, going to build it next week for a little project. Way better than a pocket door... so happy, thanks!

[@TheRehabLife]

Yay!

[@marisarobertsonphysics980]

I'm so excited to try this! I'll be getting the wood soon!

[@troylee3179]

Did you build the barn doors. I want to build them as well

[@cooa9951]

How did you get the shiplap look, I thought the boards are close together but the finished door shows gaps between them.

[@heemylow7415]

Hey I have a few questions about your 4 years ago barn door project, which I love.

[@Paddy818]

Perfect! Using this as my template! Thanks so much!!

[@penniclemons2249]

Do you need kiln dried wood? Or will regular wood do?

[@TheRehabLife]

The wood we get is usually from Home Depot or Menards and is kiln dried

[@Deut3019]

Very good design!

[@ephesians28-93]

Not a $40 dollar project at all! Maybe for JUST the hardware. : (

[@MimiDidi121]

The cheapest I've seen the hardware is $35-40. When I was reading the list of materials I was roughly adding them up in my head and I came up with $70+ just on the wood, screws and glue. Huh?

[@Alexanderbuilds2001]

Yea it’s not a $40 project at all.

[@RyanMidd422]

Man this is awesome I’m doing this this week

[@jonrobinson6046]

Great build as always

[@remoteinsanity]

Love your project manager! This could save me $200 on a door.

[@PAOLINAG]

Genious! Thank you

[@victorpadilla1211]

So glad you guys changed the background song for the video! lol

[@lesterwyatt9590]

Great job.. keep posting and pushing.

Thanks!

Really cool work .simple ,easy but nice

[@StuffUCanMake]

Thanks for sharing with us a practical project we can all learn and do!

[@TheRehabLife]

Definitely, thanks for watching!

[@stefanoclemenzi]

Bravi bravi bravi!!!!! Sempre così semplici ma veramente belle!!!!!

[@alexpurcell3737]

Excellent! What type of wood did you use for this? I want to make these! Just not sure of the best material to use...

[@TheRehabLife]

We typically use standard pine boards. Thanks for watching!

[@DanHeilman1]

$40 for all that wood and hardware? I don't believe you...

[@lacreatiaezell7087]

The hardware fr the sliding door is $40😂😂🤷🏾‍♀️

[@KimandGarrettmakeit]

Great Stuff Guys! So A-DOOR-able! Ha! I see what you did there...

[@TheRehabLife]

Puns are the best!

[@seaandearth]

Cute your dog loved, thanks for the video.

[@barrettlavergne8334]

You’re dimensions suggest 1.5 inch depth but you use two 1inch pieces around the edge making it 2 inch depth. Do you have hardware that can support 2 inch depth; most use 1.25 to 1.75 in depth. Also your dimensions suggest 83.25 height but you use 9 10 inch boards making it 90 inches tall. Does it turn out ok by cutting two boards near the base and top to shorten door?

[@TheRehabLife]

The actual depth of a 1" board is 3/4" so the total depth will be 1.5". The actual width of a 10" board is 9 1/4" so the height will turn out to 83 1/4" using nine pieces so you should be good with standard door hardware!

[@BlondeExplorer1]

😀 Easy to follow video. Thanks 😁

[@WgXYTrouble]

This is now a $100 door, just priced it at Menards. And that was using standard grade pine

[@nicoleslagle382]

How much does the door weigh? I’m wanting to do a double barn door. The tracks are weight specific so this would be very helpful with just estimating how much one is before building.

[@TheRehabLife]

Rough estimate around 50lbs? Kind of a guess though...

[@pfdbill]

Weigh yourself, then weigh yourself holding the door. Lol

[@hankypancake]

Great video. I love these. I am going to make my own. I am a bit puzzled though. How did you get the length 84" with 9 10" wide boards and 1 1/2" thick with 2 1" boards. Thanks.

[@TheRehabLife]

The actual width of a 10" board is 9 1/4" and the actual depth of a 1" board is 3/4".

[@claybradford3346]

haha i'm glad someone already asked this question! i was so confused

[@garyteague4480]

Only thing I would have done differently was add a 1x4 on the edges in the front but thanks this looks great

[@hinata32725]

Good job looks awsome

[@andyz2747]

Nice done good job

[@BrocAndAimee]

Great door, well done! I may be making a video of this build, ill make sure to give you both credit!

[@timmcnulty6166]

The perfect camp door!.

[@jorrba3934]

I like your door. I'm thinking of making one between my bedroom and bath. I have a large opening 48 inches. Do you think my door will warp? What type of wood do you recommend for a door that wide?? Help Thanks

[@jeffholshevnikoff8053]

Great video, thanks. I need 84" height, so how would you go about gaining that extra 3/4 inch? Add 3/4" trim/strip to top or bottom? or split it and add to both? Thx

[@Pacifictheory]

Did you do this? I need 30x84

[@gregdarce1078]

So many damn screws. I'll use my nailer instead and then stain. I like the exposed nail heads. You can sand them and go for the aged look

[@m.p7025]

Thank you

[@archermark29]

Love this 'modern look' barn door, I'd like to make one for my home office to get more privacy. Can you let me know the paint code and brand. I actually like that color and it will go great with the color I already have in the room that I'd like to hang it in. Thank you

[@MrsLilLady86]

LOVE IT!!!

[@uppercasedesignsdesignsinwood]

Hi loved your video on building a sliding door and totally love the design. Question, there is no diagonal support. Will your design stay straight? I want to build your door tomorrow.

[@ifrahim2k]

I love it! Good job!

[@TheRehabLife]

Thanks!

[@MrDdoggius]

I’m excited to get this project started! Ive purchased the smaller items i.e. wood glue,screws, etc. I love the idea of being able to customize with paint or stain, hardware, etc. pardon me but but by no means am I a carpenter. These measurements are to clear a standard height doorway right? Any chance you could help a brother out with measurements to clear a 90 inch doorway with no trim?

[@TheRehabLife]

Adding another horizontal 1"x10" will give you a height of 92 1/2". Just make sure your vertical pieces are now 92 1/2" instead of 83 1/4" and you'll be good to go! Good luck with the build!

[@MrDdoggius]

The Rehab Life Thank so much for replying! Didn’t think I’d actually get a response. Lol I’ll keep you posted on he outcome

[@mahmoodkhan6623]

reat job! i love the colour. if i already have a 3/4" plyboard lying around. can i still make this barn door?

[@ms.c3977]

I want this door!

[@gamosantosiv6122]

Great job, got to do mine! But, let me ask you why cutting inside, and with out the dust collector?!

[@timadamsart]

Again a really nice video thanks👌

[@haroldbrown3452]

In 2022 materials are about $125 FYI

[@sergiowall3174]

I’m planing to do around my porch any idea what kind of paint (water proof) to use. Good job 👏

[@TheRehabLife]

You should be fine with exterior paint, you can also use cedar or treated wood...

[@andresordonez1087]

First it was the $60 door now a$40 door where do you buy the lumber from?

[@diegomontero9557]

Not sure where I went wrong. Finding the supplies you listed comes up to be over $100. Just 1 slab of 1x10x8 is $22 and you used 3 of them … Granted 6 years ago but still… thoughts?

[@yunkie12]

This is why i love your videos! That was awesome!

[@84sbagby]

I love watching you guys can you do a video on a bench with a high back almost like a sette to go with your 50$ table I just recently completed

[@FernandoRodriguez-ds5ri]

That door open to a brick wall. Like something from a horror movie

[@fjon4060]

Damn, that was easy! 👍

[@vickiewasmuth9443]

If I'm going to make 2 of these doors in order to fit a 4ft closet opening, what would the measurements be for my wood pieces🤔?? I'm going to try to make these doors while my husband is at work😬, and I just want to make sure I have figured the measurements correctly!🤦‍♀️🤣🤣

[@i-chiulucero9647]

What handle you used? it looks much longer than 12". great work.

[@Anonymous-rn9xe]

We're looking at a house with a barn door on the bathroom, beautiful natural wood but we want to relocate to the kitchen/living room. Do you have any expert advice on how to restore the bathroom wall above the lintel after relocating the door? Thank you!

[@TheRehabLife]

It's hard to tell without seeing what you're dealing with but it could be as simple as some drywall repair with patching and painting.

[@Anonymous-rn9xe]

[@nicoliawiles7028]

Absolutely loved this...but HEADS UP...the lumber alone was $120 for the cheapest stuff I could get from Lowe’s...

[@vmisdaone]

Hey. Beginner here lol. What would be the cut out measurement for 82in x 38w?

[@AB-83]

How is this $40? Just went to Lowe's and a 1x10x8 is almost $17 each.

[@breannatagge5586]

Angelique Barsby I agree! I used this video as a tutorial , but spent around $70 for the wood

[@since1990kevin]

Their videos are obviously click bait, 3 similar videos where the claim $30-$60 and all have a thumbnail with the door hanging wtf if yr not showing how to hang it or install the hanging part then don’t show it HANGING???!!!!🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

[@chat-jpt]

I have a door opening where the max height barn door could be is 71” to fit track. Was thinking of just using 7 of the 1x10 (64.75) and 1 x 6 at the end. Would you split the 1.6 in half for the top and bottom for aesthetics/balance or would it not matter?

[@TheRehabLife]

Splitting it in half would probably look better for aesthetics.

[@1kevgene]

Could you make a cabinet for a tv lift?

[@Kevin_Cooking_inTahoe]

What kind of wood did you buy and where that the cost for everything was only $40 ? Boards 1' x 8" x 8' boards at Lowes or Home Depot cost $11 each or more

[@TheRehabLife]

We buy from Menards - a midwest hardware store chain. We buy standard pine boards which helps bring the price down considerably.

[@tiana.alonda2961]

Please tell me where you buy your lumber because I needed the same size and all and my total was 80 dollars

[@TheRehabLife]

We typically get it from Menards. Although this vid is from a few years back when lumber was way cheaper unfortunately...

[@dboysofly8946]

Can a nailgun do the same work as these screws?

[@jordanhansen198]

I just priced all the materials that are required and not including the hardware for the door it came to close to $150......so where did you get $40?

[@renoforless]

I know right, I did the same and it came to $120.
