Claude's Home Improvement Blog: How to Make a DIY Barn Door from an Interior Door

Hello Remodelaholics! Sarah here from The Created Home, where we never throw things away, we just turn them into something else. Recently, my husband and I pulled a few solid core interior doors from a home we are flipping, and when another home needed a barn door for the laundry closet it was like the heavens opened and choirs sang and we knew.

I mean, most of the cost of DIY is in the lumber, right? So why not start with a door and add little here and there to make your own door?

There are a lot of ways to design a barn door, so if you are not loving the herringbone-style chevrons (but really, who doesn’t love chevron?!) you can take this idea and change it up however you like.
