SKYSEN 6FT Sliding barn Door Hardware kit, Barn Door Track, 1/4” Thick Material- Combination Track- Smooth and Quiet- Easy to Install- Black (J Shape-5)

I installed this kit into a space about 5 1/2 feet wide To do this, I held the bar up against the wall, taking care to line the mounting holes up with the clearly marked studs (using painters tape). Once lined up w the studs, I marked and cut the ends off on each side. From here, I drilled two new mounting holes through the bar for the end studs which should be present on any wall. This is a very soft steel so drilling was very easy. I had to trim the flange off one side of the mounting stand-offs to allow it to fit flush against the corner wall. This allowed the included wood-threaded bolts to go through the [near] center of the wall stud.Installation tips: This kit comes with very smooth rolling hardware so you have to be sure to get your top bar as absolutely level as possible. This also ensuring that the bar is straight through each joint. There are five sections so all four joints have to be very straight. If you have a slight "up" angle at either end, as I did, the door won't stay pushed all the way to that side. To fix mine, I was able to lightly knock the end down at the last (leftmost) mounting standoff.Spacers are included which are meant to go between the rail stand-offs and the wall. I initially did not use them and the roller bolts rubbed on the wall ever so slightly. I installed one set of spacers which resulted in perfect spacing.The floor guides can be the trickiest part if you're drilling through vynil or laminate flooring to get down to some concrete. I drilled through the vinyl using a standard multi-purpose bit, then switched to a masonry bit to get down into the slab for the insert. I only installed a single floor guide on the outside for now and am using peel-n-stick felt dots on the back of the door to ride on the baseboard. So far this is good but I have some clear protective vinyl adhesive on order which we will install on the baseboard to make it slide easier/smoother as well as provide protective layer on top of the baseboard paint.All in all, this is a very solid kit that installs well.

I didn't know what to expect for such a reasonable price, but was pleasantly surprised. It came with all hardware and all the pieces are actually metal, not cheap plastic. I also had concerns about the 5 piece rail, but my concerns were unfounded. It assembled easily and with the countersunk screws and support plates, it's very rigid. No complaints here! Everything in nicely painted and looks great. The hanger and roller assembly it nice and heavy and rolls nice. The stops for fully open or closed even have rubber bumpers for quiet operation.

This product was easy to assemble and perfect for what I was looking for. I only gave it 4 stars only because the parts where you can join it together was hard to put them together. Some of the paint was chipped off due to the snug fit (see in picture) but I don’t see a need to return because it doesn’t effect the use of it.

The multi-pieced bar was not ideal, but worked well if you did not mind the extra screws along the bar. Rollers and bar stops work well.

Everything you expect out of a super expensive item for 1/3 the price
