Q: How much does it cost to install bifold doors?

Q: Why do shotgun houses have two front doors?

• <div><p>There are a few different reasons why shotgun houses have two separate front doors.

Q: Do barn doors need a bottom track?

• <div><p>A barn door needs a bottom track to ensure it operates smoothly and doesn&rsquo;t get stuck or scratch the floor. This bottom track also keeps the door secure and properly anchored. When installing a barn door with a bottom track, ensure it is six to eight inches off the floor and at least twice as wide as the door. In rare cases, an interior barn door can hang from a top track and slide along the wall. This design doesn&rsquo;t require a bottom track. </p></div>
