For a beautifully renovated small bachelor in Toronto, our client chose to have the bathroom door be the sliding barn door. It saves space and it's a stunning piece to greet the guests and the owner as they walk in the front door.

One for upstairs, and one for downstairs; One made of solid walnut, and one made of reclaimed hemlock; One big and one small. But both are beautiful and functional! That's one lucky house...to have its owner treat it so well!
If you want a vanity made just for your space, please contact us!
This is not your ordinary home office, it is made with much thought and style. The dominating wood element here goes very well with the location of the house, Forest Hill! 55Design.ca came up with the design of the entire office and contacted us to have it built, from the sliding barn door, to the shelves, to the desk and the counter top, to the installation of the units and lighting, we were asked to make it happen, and look! It happened.
Now are you inspired enough to get a home office going?
Our client just sent in these photos from Ottawa. They were in Korea and bought this beautiful door to jazz up the bedroom and got our sliding barn hardware to hang it! What a creative way to cover a closet!
You can check out the homestars.com review on the door and barn door hardware here!
Our client just sent in these photos after the room has been painted and the railing to the stairs that lead to the magical master bedroom is in. And he did the railing himself! Don't try this at home, he is a very, very handy person. You can view the original post here
Lana from http://www.agmrenovations.com approached us and asked for barn doors and barn door hardware for a basement she was designing for her client. When we went to install the doors, we were really impressed by the workmanship of the basement renovation!
Armed with the 4 feet x 10 feet walnut dining table in the beautiful home, our client asked for a walnut sliding door on the Stainless Steel hardware to complete the look! Since this is a multi-level house, it's really nice to see the table on the main floor and the door just a few steps below. But there is something different about this walnut door, it's not the slab door you are used to seeing with our work, it's made with walnut veneer, and solid walnut edging banding around. This definitely makes the door a little lighter to handle and it looks beautiful in its own way.
Two beautiful white frosted glass panels doors sliding into one another right in front of house makes this space a winner for the family. This main floor family room needed to be turned into an extra bedroom for the kids, since there are four of them, and this option is a great one since it allows functionality and style to co-exist.
This table belongs perfectly with this well thought out beautiful house. From the interior design to the available space, even I, a seasoned table looker, got a little intimidated.
We are driving North again, and again with a door on the roof and the sliding hardware inside the SUV, we are cruising to the destination on a beautiful Friday afternoon. Once we arrived, there was a beautifully just-built home in the middle of a forest! And this house needed a sliding door made of pine for the en-suite in the bedroom upstairs to go with the rest of the pine architectural beams in the house.
Here are some more pictures of the Chalkboard wardrobe in its home! Our client just sent in these pictures. You can read the original blog here
Our client just sent in a photo of the finished installation of her two heritage doors using our Heavy Metal sliding barn door hardware. Looks pretty good! If you want to mount without the wood block behind the track like this one, it is much better if have a solid beam running across above the opening. Our client had the room built from scratch, so she was able to have the solid beam up before the drywalling.
Looking for a free-standing wardrobe for the front of the house to store the kids jackets and shoes, our client came to us asking for a design that brings a little fun while still maintains the formality of the house. More importantly is the durability factor--kids!
For the fun part, we suggested to have the panels of the doors painted in chalk board paint, and the handles to be of bright colours, different lengths, and installed one vertical and one horizontal. For the durability, we suggested to go with white oak since our client wanted a lighter wood because the house already has many dark wood elements such as the floor. White oak is modern and beautiful, and it has the colour of bamboo, and bamboo is quite the "in" thing these days.
I hope the kids (and parents) have fun with the chalkboard. I can't wait to see what it looks like with chalk play on it!
For the entrance to the basement from the newly renovated kitchen, our client decided to put up a sliding barn door. We also made the door along with the Heavy Metal barn door hardware. Our client just sent in these photos after he installed it himself.
Our client from Vancouver sent this in. She had her door stained yellow, and got the Heavy Metal sliding barn door hardware from us, and voila -- instant sunshine!
Remember the beautiful slab walnut door we made for a Toronto home? Well, the walnut door wanted to explore new worlds, and find itself right at home in this modern condo in Bracebridge. Sliding on the stainless steel barn door hardware, it looks just as gorgeous as it sounds..."walnut slab door"...mmmm.
I'm just updating on a new project completed. The client had purchase the barn boards awhile back for this particular project. He asked us to make the doors using these barn boards in this painterly way. You don't need to go to an art gallery for these paintings! These doors are for a large closet opening. Because there isn't enough wall space on the both sides for the doors to slide into, they are hung on the by-pass system.
If you have the space for a 5 feet by 10 feet long walnut dining table, then why not! A little intimidating to sit for dinner at this table, but think about all the food it can hold...oh, and not to mention all the guests you can have. Be prepare for some envious eyes though.
It started out because our client up-sized to a big house from a condo downtown Toronto. So the dining table they had looked a little midget in the large dinning room. After getting the walnut slab door on sliding hardware from us for their master bed, it just makes sense to get a walnut slab dinning table suitable for a long feast! Yes, the table is the same one we have in our dinning room and we called it "The Long Feast", but our kitchen and dining room combined is 200 square feet, so our Long Feast is a little short and small compared to this Long Feast...so we all called it the Extra Big and Long Feast!
We had a little photo shoot of the table at our workshop, can't help it, it was fun!
You must be wanting to see it in the client's house by now. Look below. It took 3 moving men to carry it it in and one Rock to assemble the legs to the table top. I'm always, of course, prancing around, not doing much (but not much gets done without me though).
Wait! Sorry, I can't find my SD card with all the pictures in it! Stay tune...getting it to it soon...I know I'm torturing you.
Our client sent in these photos of their sliding garage door. They got the Heavy Metal hardware with 4 wheels because the door is 10 foot wide. He made the door himself and look, it's more than cool!
