Sliding Barn Door on Bathroom

Barn doors have become a very trendy thing to have and people most often want to use them on their bathroom, this has both advantages and disadvantages. Your bathroom will probably be the one area of your home that your guests will become quite familiar with and no matter how charming your home is if your bathroom isn't up to par it can bring down the rest of your home. Adding a sliding barn door to your bathroom can help transform it from a regular old bathroom into a home spa.

How Much Privacy do You Need?

While sliding barn doors are different than your typical hinged door, they both serve the same purpose in closing off a room and giving you an extra barrier between you and the rest of the house. There are some hardware options when it comes to barn doors to give a more sense of security without compromising style, such as locks to provide just as much privacy as a traditional door. While visually these barn doors can offer similar amounts of privacy, they may not when it comes to sound. When it comes to sliding barn doors you can have a small gap between the door and the wall to allow the door to slide freely without scraping the wall, this gap can allow sound to pass through more freely than their swinging counterparts.

Does your Master Bedroom Lack a Focal Point

Is your bedroom looking a little drab and consist of no visual interest. Wooden sliding barn doors can fix this with their unique wood grain patterns and overall differing look from a traditional hinged-door. A sliding barn door on your bathroom can either contrast your wall color giving it that extra pop or you can have it complement your existing décor.

Show Off the Beauty

Do you have recently renovated bathroom that look like it should be in one of those mansions you see on TV? If so why not show it off in all its beauty unencumbered by a swinging door. Having a sliding barn door in this situation will not only give you a full view of your bathroom when it is open but also give you the illusion that your bedroom extends far beyond.
