Prepare the details for a conversation with Jeff about your door project.
A barn-style door for a new space, a different look, or hardware that needs attention. Start with what you have in mind. Jeff will have follow-up questions.
This is a preview. Jeff’s phone number, email address, and service area are still to be supplied. You can try the message builder and save a copy, but this website cannot send an inquiry. Jeff is, however, in Bentonville, and the town is not that big.
Jeff’s phone and email are not listed yet. In the meantime, the message builder will prepare a note you can keep.
Need urgent assistance? Start here instead.
Before our first conversation or when sharing your room brief, these three quick photos help Jeff check clearances right away. More photos are welcome. Jeff will look at all of them:
Make a clear note of what the door needs. Copy or download it to keep for a future conversation. Jeff will be glad to have it.
Clearances & fit
A sliding barn door needs space to travel and a solid surface to hang from. Here are the four checks to make on your opening.
Record the opening and the outside of the casing separately
Measure clear opening width at the top, middle, and bottom, and height at both sides from the finished floor. Record the outside casing dimensions and projection. Choose overlap and final slab size only after checking the selected door and hardware instructions.
Keep opening, casing, slab top, and rail datum distinct
Record floor-to-ceiling or lowest obstruction height and floor-to-top-of-casing height. Hardware instructions specify their own reference point for roller clearance and rail mounting height. There is no universal six-inch requirement.
Measure the full travel path on the intended side
Measure available wall run and note switches, handles, baseboard, outlets, furniture, corners, and the opposite face of the opening. Check full opening and closing travel against the chosen rail, stops, soft-close equipment, and guide geometry.
Check the highest finished-floor point along the entire travel
Record floor variation and rugs or future flooring. Required floor gap and guide engagement come from the selected system. Some guides need a routed groove; others do not. Confirm the approved guide and mounting method before altering the slab or floor.
Use the instructions for your exact model. Examples of manufacturer references: Rustica installation instructions · Johnson Hardware 2610F product specifications.
Snap a photo showing the doorway and the entire wall next to it. Include it when you message Jeff and he can check the layout. He will have already looked at it twice.
