It is always popular but costly. Now, I will show you how to build it for cheap. I used cedar fence pickets left over from a fence build for this door. You can buy them for $2.87 for a 4-inch width or $4.65 each for a 6-inch width.

And a Black Gate pulls for $4, and liquid nails for the glue up.

You built it the right way... with a young strong man to help you move it around! I was expecting you to take a drink once in a while during the build... that’s the way I do it as long as there are no big spinning blades involved in the build.

What we do for our kids
Doing the same for my daughter right now. Saving them money and most important having good quality time
Nice job and a beer in the end is what I get paid too.

[weston]

You made this look so easy. Nice looking doors.

Beautiful build! Thanks for sharing your talent and time!

[andrizeefoshizee]

Nice. Fast forward to 2022 prices: "Barn Door for $250"

[cloudedjourney]

Looks great. That straightedge clamp would be handy..

[faybrianhernandez]

Nice job on the door, would have been nice to have seen the whole door at the end.

[MsFishlegs]

Interesting as to how youi turn the light switch on when the door is open even a slight amount.

[nasarazam]

Do you need to joint the surfaces first. ( I do not have jointer)

[jorrba]

Hi, I'm planning of making a barn door for the very first time.
It's going to be install between my bedroom and master bath. 48 inches wide opening. I never thought of adding plywood between the panels. I also noticed you didn't make a frame. How thick is your door? I bet the door was heavy. Will it work if i buy panels with grooves. Home depot has them for $6 per panels. your door turned out great! Thanks

[JennaLeeEquals]

I wish people would say what size the planks are

[ramx]

How do u turn on the light switch when that door is open?

[EvelynKathleen]

I'm gonna build mine for my trailer connected to my mom's house.. but I need to build a very large barn door.

[MrClutch]

What size pickets do I need? Also what is everything required to build this. Thank you

[baddad]

Thanks for your video - I noticed you have the same issue I had with the light switch being on the wall behind the door when you slide it open. I ended up moving the switch to the other wall. Was this an issue for you? Was there a reason you didn't put any finish or stain on the cedar? One other question - what kind of handle did you use for the other side of the door- never seen this addressed in any barn door build videos. Nice work - you made it look easy which means you know what you're doing.
