I would like to install a sliding barn door to give us an aesthetically pleasing way of covering up our guest closet without sacrificing space. I'm a newbie when it comes to busting holes in walls, so I thought I'd try to get a hold of some experts.
What would be the best/safest way to install it? I'm thinking that it is a support beam that is running across where I'd like to attach it to, and I do not know if it would be safe to attach it to that.
Would I need to frame a new horizontal support underneath that, with a couple of new vertical supports on each side of the closet door? Just curious if you have any good ideas for how to make this work.
Thanks!
Tim
