Sliding barn doors.

[sawwas72]

Hello, new member here.

My question is about sliding barn doors. My grandfather had barn doors on his barns and the track on those doors or bent inward in front of the door opening, so that when closed, the door would seal against the frame and eliminate most of the gap and drafts from coming in.

I'm either using the wrong terminology or those types of doors don't exist anymore but if anyone is aware of what I'm talking about, do you know if there's any hardware or tracks available on the net anywhere, or is it something that would have to be made myself?

Thanks in advance for any advice or direction you can give.
Have a good day.

Not quite sure what you're looking for.
Most tracks I have seen are the channel that the 4 little wheels run n or the Cannon Ball type of round track with ball type roller hangers.
Could it be something he made himself or had built. those old boys were pretty inventive.
