A Look at BarnCraft Modern Barn Doors Santa Monica Barn Door
Apr 1st 2019
We are excited to introduce the Santa Monica Barn Door, a new addition to our BarnCraft Modern Barn Door Collection. This beautiful door makes a stylish statement in any home. The Santa Monica Barn Door features a premium sliding barn door in Birchwood. Birchwood, a fine textured wood, makes a great surface for painting or staining. These doors are fully assembled and easy to install.
The Santa Monica door comes in a variety of finishes. Choose from Traditional, Antique, Distressed or unfinished to tailor-make your door’s finish to match your taste and decor. Consider combining your Santa Monica door with various hardware options including pull handles, rollers, and a privacy lock to create various interior doors for your home. Create a modern look by installing two of these doors to make a double door for a bolder and more interesting statement in your home.
You can select from many paint and stain options as well. If you choose to DIY the finish yourself, see below for step-by-step instructions.
Finishing Guidelines
Going the DIY route to finishing your BarnCraft Santa Monica Barn Door? We have
everything you need to guide you along the way. First, we suggest you choose a
quality product such as Behr, Sherwin
Williams, Minwax
or Cabot.
At the BarnDoorz factory, we use water-based products, but you can use water,
oil, or solvent-based products based on your preference. When painting your
door, we suggest using a primer coat and a compatible finish coat. For best
results, sand all surfaces between coats of primer and finish.
Be sure to confirm that the top, bottom and side edges of the door are finished
correctly. Before installing your new barn door, allow 24-48 hours for the door
to adapt to your area’s general humidity and temperature. Inspect your door
thoroughly before installing. If you notice a problem, notify BarnDoorz
for further instructions. Prior to finishing, follow the Storage & Handling
guidelines below.
Storage and Handling
●Before installing your new barn door, allow 24-48 hours for the door to adapt
to your area’s general humidity and temperature.
●Always store doors flat in a clean, dry, well-ventilated room. Protect them
from dirt, water and if stored for long periods of time, seal with a
high-quality sealer or primer.
●Do not expose doors to abnormal heat, direct sunlight, direct moisture, extreme
dryness or humidity.
●Deliver doors to your building site after plaster and cement are completely
dry and avoid exposure to air-conditioned or heated environments prior to
finishing.
●If stored on the job site and to avoid moisture absorption, be sure to seal
all ends and edges with a wood sealer.
●To prevent oils and dirt from penetrating the wood grains, always handle doors
with clean or gloved hands.
●Always lift and carry (do not drag) doors to prevent damage to the surface.
