Internal Hardwood Barn Doors

Hardwood barn doors in this collection are built from solid American red oak or reclaimed hardwood timber and supplied in a raw, unfinished state ready to stain or paint to your chosen colour. All ROAK series doors are 40mm thick with a plank pattern face, made with Australian raw materials, and available in standard sizes or custom dimensions with a lead time of 1 to 2 weeks. Reclaimed wood doors (RC-BD series) are sourced from reclaimed hardwood timber and are available in single and double configurations up to 2500mm x 1220mm.

Hardware is not included. Barn door hardware for hardwood doors — including track, rollers and soft close options — is available separately in the barn door hardware collection.

Choosing Between Oak and Reclaimed Hardwood

The ROAK series doors are machined from solid American red oak, with a consistent plank pattern and a raw surface that takes stain evenly. Red oak has a prominent open grain that shows clearly under an oil or stain finish, giving a warm, natural result. These doors suit contemporary, coastal and Hamptons interiors where a clean timber look with visible grain is the goal.

The RC-BD reclaimed wood doors are built from salvaged hardwood timber with natural weathering, variation in colour and visible marks from prior use. Each door is different. The reclaimed series suits industrial, rustic and heritage interiors where character and irregularity are part of the aesthetic. Because reclaimed timber varies by nature, the door you receive will differ from the product images in colour and surface detail.

Finishing and Care

All doors in this collection are supplied raw and unfinished. Sealing, staining or painting must be completed before installation — unsealed natural timber is susceptible to cracking, moisture movement and surface damage, and failure to finish the door will void the warranty. Apply your chosen finish to all six faces of the door including the top and bottom edges. For full care and maintenance instructions, see the Solid Wood Barn Door Use, Care and Warranty Guide.

Frequently Asked Questions

What timber is used in these hardwood barn doors?

The ROAK series doors are built from solid American red oak — a dense hardwood with an open grain that takes stain and oil finishes well. The RC-BD reclaimed series uses salvaged hardwood timber; species and surface character vary by door as reclaimed material is not uniform. Both series are 40mm thick and supplied raw.

How heavy is a solid hardwood barn door and what track does it need?

A solid oak barn door at 2120mm x 1020mm x 40mm typically weighs between 40kg and 60kg. Larger doors at 2400mm x 1220mm or wider will exceed 60kg. Confirm the door’s weight with us before selecting a hardware kit and choose a track rated above that weight. Our barn door hardware collection includes kits rated up to 120kg — match the kit rating to your door and allow margin above the door’s actual weight.

Do the doors need to be sealed before installation?

Yes, without exception. All timber surfaces including the top and bottom edges must be sealed, stained or painted before the door is hung. Leaving any face unsealed — particularly the top and bottom edges — allows moisture to enter the timber and will cause cracking, movement or joint separation over time. Failure to finish all surfaces voids the 3-year warranty. Full instructions are in the Solid Wood Barn Door Use, Care and Warranty Guide.
