The Best Spots for Sliding Barn Doors in Destin Homes08/13/2018Eric Ramsey Sliding barn doors are making a big resurgence in Destin interior decor. In fact, barn doors are been one of the most popular home design trends of this past year. Perhaps barn doors are making a comeback because of their versatility – they can go nearly anywhere in your space! Below are a few of our favorite ways to use sliding barn doors in Destin homes. Barn Doors in Master Bathrooms Using a sliding barn door as the barrier between the master bedroom and bathroom is one of the best ways to use them. Not only does it make your bathroom look much more stylish, but it lets you use space in ways that other doors can’t. When you open a standard door, it takes up space in either the bedroom or the bathroom it connects to – barn doors slide directly next to the wall to give you plenty of space. Barn Doors as Closet Doors Similar to bathroom doors, sliding barn doors give you tons of extra space when used as a closet door. That makes them a wonderful choice for a hall closet or foyer closet. In addition, general use closets are a great place to put barn doors, since they’re usually in rooms where you’ll have guests to let you show off its unique style. Barn Doors as Room Dividers Who says barn doors always have to go where doors go? Wide sliding barn doors can help separate a room into smaller spaces if you want to create a little more private mood in your Destin home. Barn Doors as a Modern Door Replacement In Destin condos, townhouses, and long-term apartments, sliding barn doors are appearing more as these spaces embrace modern home design. With a sliding barn door in your condo, your space feels more spacious and less segmented. In their own way, barn doors let you get the best parts of a house and an apartment. Barn Doors as a Window Treatment We usually just call these kind of barn doors “barn door shutters,” though they aren’t very similar to most plantation shutters. But they are similar to shutters in that they have an enduring style, and they can block a great deal of light to make your home cool and comfy. Barn Doors Framing an Entertainment Center This is one of the more unique uses we’ve seen for barn doors. Barn doors can be a frame and a cover for a wall-mounted TV set. You can not only create a frame for the TV (almost like a letterbox feature), but you can also hide the monitor when you’re not using it to make your space a little more rustic. Home Office Barn Doors Barn doors are a distinct blend of fun design, stylish looks, and usability, so they’re great in a Destin home office. We even offer barn doors with built-in mirrors, or with dry-erase boards for writing notes or planning. Remember, just because you work there doesn’t mean your home office has to be plain. Barn Doors in Destin Commercial Spaces All right, so this isn’t a spot in the home, but it’s on this list because barn doors are fantastic in commercial spaces. Dividing off parts of an office or restaurant, or as a wall between a waiting room and conference rooms – interior barn doors exemplify the rustic chic trend that’s emerged in commercial spaces.
