Still going strong with the barn door aesthetic and given that our home is an antique farmhouse from 1740 I think it’s safe to include a little barn door here and there. These barn door window coverings are the perfect solution for my girls shared bedroom. Simple construction and installation using Simpson Strong-Tie hardware makes this project a cinch.
The solid wood hanging barn door provides complete blackout coverage for any window and then easily slides open to allow daylight to shine through. I combined garage door pulley wheels with Simpson Strong-Tie T strap ties on a flat steel bar to make the rolling hardware.
Protruding less than an inch from the moulding this low profile barn door window covering adds character and charm plus functionality. For the complete step by step instructions click on over to Building Strong here. In addition to building plans you can find information on various construction topics, structural integrity, and safety. It’s a great resource for construction industry insights and helps professionals design and build safer, stronger structures more efficiently.
Maybe you have the perfect window where a sliding barn door window covering would be ideal?
