Besides how trendy and beautiful they are, the main reason why many people purchase sliding barn doors for their homes, retail spaces, and offices is that they’re incredibly effective at saving space.  Because sliding barn doors don’t swing outward and instead glide along the wall, this saves a significant amount of floor space, making the room feel much bigger. There are so many ways in which sliding barn doors can help improve space optimization, organization, and home comfort. 

Making The Most Out Of A Small Space 
If you live in a condo, an apartment, small home or a cottage, you know the importance of making every square foot of each room count. So many Canadians with small homes and businesses choose to use sliding barn doors to help optimize and get the most out of their small space. Using a sliding barn door for your closet, your bathroom, or even in your hallways as opposed to a traditional swinging door will significantly reduce floor space and will help to simplify high-traffic areas.

Creating Multi-Purpose Rooms 
Part of space optimization is making sure that the flow and functionality of your home work for you. If you’re trying to make a large space work but the size of the space feels clunky and uninviting, you may want to consider sectioning that room off to create two rooms. Many homeowners benefit from using sliding barn doors to create two rooms, some choose to section off a space for a kid's playroom, an office, or an area for their television. By sectioning off one room into two with sliding barn doors, you can choose to open up the doors to allow space between the two rooms, or you can close the doors when you need a little extra privacy.
