Installation & Assembly

Wood Barn Door
Assembly
Inspect all parts and read instructions thoroughly before beginning.
It is required that you complete the desired look and finish to your door
after it is fully assembled. For the best finishing results, lightly sand the
door first with very fine sandpaper and wipe with a clean cloth. Vari-
ations in color and small scratches and nicks are a natural part of the
wood and are not defects.
A large sturdy workbench or sturdy saw horses are recommended.

Assemble Door Panels
Place one door panel flat on your work surface, making sure the
groove side of the panel is to the inside and the smooth side to
the outside (this is an end panel). Take one of the thin wooden
splines and place it evenly into the panel groove. Do not hammer
the splines. Place 2 spacers onto the spline (one towards the top
and one towards the bottom). This ensures even alignment of the
panels. Insert the next panel into the first spline. Repeat the spline
and spacer steps with the remaining panels. Make sure all panels
are aligned top and bottom as you go. Panels should be evenly
spaced and snug. The last panel will also be an end panel with a
smooth outer edge.
Make sure the door is
square by measuring
diagonally from both
directions. These
measurements must be
equal. Using the
mallet or hammer,
adjust the boards until
equal. Do not hit
the splines.
Remove the spacers.
2.
Top and Bottom Rail Boards
Place the top and bottom rail boards onto the assembled door
panels with the pre-drilled opening side up. Make sure both
panels are flush with the door edges on top and sides. There
should not be any overhang. Panels should be evenly spaced
and snug. Do not insert any of
the screws at
this point.
