Barn Door Floor Guides

One of the smallest but most important parts of any barn door installation is the door guide, sometimes called the floor guide. The door guide helps keep the door and rollers at the correct vertical angle for smooth operation and a long operational life. Goldberg Brothers makes several types of door guides to meet various installation requirements.

The options below are specifically designed to work best with Goldberg Brothers barn door hardware products. We also offer a line of door roller guides.

sets. It can also be purchased separately. This sturdy,

continuous mortised slot in the bottom of the door.
