S&Z TOPHAND 36 in. x 84 in. Unfinished British Brace Knotty Barn Door with 6.6FT Sliding Door Hardware Kit/Solid Wood/Sliding Door/Double Surfaces/A Simple Assembly is Required

Great option too save a little money. Easy to put together following the pictured instructions. Nice pine wood.

This was our first time building and installing barn doors. We are not DIY project amateurs, but these were tough! The assembly was fine. No issues on the hardware or wood planks. We stained ours black for a rustic look. The difficulty was hanging them and installing the track. Thank goodness we read other reviews that pointed out the weight of these doors! The track itself is super heavy. We didn’t bother with the flimsy track hardware in the package. Instead we purchased heavy duty lag bolts and toggle bolts (6” each - could’ve been safe with 5”) to be 100% sure this door would stay up! Ours required a header piece to allow for a gap when sliding due to our door frame trim. (For a header piece we used a 2x4x8 for our 48” wide door, and a 2x4x6 for our 36” door)This takes at least two people to install and lots of patience! The instructions are garbage, but the reviews and videos help. Very smooth sliders and nice quality handles. They turned out great! 🖤

The media could not be loaded. 4 stars because one of the decorative wood slats at the front split when we were screwing it in, there were 4 decorative slats so we put the split one on the back of the door.Otherwise the door construction and track kit was perfect! Super study and looks really nice in our space!

A little hard to put together, but still a good solid door. Looks nice. Kinda wish we had stained it before we put it up, but we like it natural after all.

Edit: 3/26/23, a week after this review I finally was able to hang my door, and I find out that my wood is warped. It doesn't slide right and it hangs up on the stops. I am changing my two star review to a one-star review. Won't buy from this company again.It has taken me a little bit to write this review because I wanted to give all the good things about this door it's due. I purchased a 40 inch wide door.The door was very easy to assemble and the wood seemed like good quality wood. So that was the first thing I did was assemble the door. It was the easiest part of all of this. When I opened up the packaging for the hardware, everything seemed to be good quality. But as I laid the rail out for me to determine where it needed to go above my doorway, I realized that they had given me the bare minimum of railing for me to hang a 40 inch wide door. Realistically, if you have a 40 in wide door you need double that to clear your opening when you slide it back. I was given a 79 inch rail, that also had to have stops installed on each end, so I was already in the negative. I could have made it work and added a 12-in extension rail to it, but there were no extension holes drilled at the end of the railing. So in order for it to work with my door opening one end of the rail had to go exactly at the edge of my woodwork. Which means that the first hole that was drilled in the rail was seven and a half inches from there. So I wasn't even able to grab a stud with the first lag screw because of where the placement of the holes were drilled. I called Amazon and told them that I was running into issues with the rail and that I needed the company to send me a longer one, I even offered to pay extra money to do that and I told them that I would send back their 79 inch rail. Amazon gave me the number to call S&Z's customer service and for 2 weeks I tried to call and leave a message but the mailbox was full. Finally one day, I was able to leave a message. I gave them my name my order number and what I needed and I never heard a word from them. I tried to call them back for another week and still nothing. I called Amazon and told them I was having trouble getting in touch with them so they contacted the company theirselves and Amazon could not get resolution or a response from them either. Amazon offered a return and a refund for my trouble, but I had already put the door together, it seemed less of a hassle to try to figure out what to do with the railing then to try to figure out how to get the door apart and send it back. I could have ordered another rail but it would have cost me another $129 for a 7 ft rail, and at this point, it was the principle of the thing.I ordered my door in January of 2023 and it is now middle of March and I still do not have the barn door up.Because of where the placements of the holes are in the rail and the sheetrock anchors they gave me did not have a stop ledge on them, so when I put them into the wall and tried to screw the lag bolts in they just pushed back into the sheetrock. I did not want to use a header board to install this barn door because the header board would have come out past my trim mold and it would have kicked my door out too far. So I have finally found a half inch wide headerboard to use and I will attach the railing to that and hopefully I can get it hung this weekend.Oh, and the instructions to hang were useless.Would I buy from this company again? Probably not....NOT because of the quality of the door or hardware, but strictly because of the customer service of the company. If you are going to sell products in the United States through Amazon please make sure that your customer service is top notch, because that's what we expect.

The only downside is the wood is a very soft absorbent wood. If you are going to stain versus paint, go a shade or two lighter or test on the edges. There is very little visible grain to the wood either. The hardware is great and easy to use if you are savvy to assembly. I received instructions that did not match the parts exactly and had to be guessed. If you are easily flustered this could bother you, if you take your time and think it thru it is an easy assembly.
