This support header is fully customizable with different colors finishes.
Header barn door.
The header reinforces the drywall making it strong enough for your barn door.
It should be tall enough so that when it s hung on the track there is about 1 2 inch of space between the bottom of the door and the floor.
To determine the height to mount the header you can attach the hardware to the door and prop the door off the ground.
The barn door should be wide enough to completely cover the doorway with an inch or two of overhang on both sides and about one inch at the top.
Add structural support for your barn door with our sliding barn door support header.
Some good examples are available.
A 2 x 6 cut twice as long as your track should do the trick.
Once the header is installed to the drywall the track can be firmly added to the header.
Barn doors can be heavy up to 200 pounds or more so for sturdiness most people mount the track to a header attached to the wall studs above the doorway.

As i mentioned in my post it was necessary since the predrilled holes in barn door hardware don t line up with studs.
