When working with a small bathroom it sometimes feels like all you’re doing is making compromises. Giving up that cute vanity that took up too much space or even that freestanding tub that just didn’t fit. Although we may not be able to get you all the room you need for that claw-foot bathtub of your dreams, we do have a chic solution to get a little extra space: Sliding barn doors! Not only do these doors open up your bath, they also work in a variety of styles and are, well, gorgeous! See for yourself…
If you’re going for rustic, stick with a classic barn door style. The horizontal panel and worn wood on this one give it its authentic look:
Instead of using a barn door as an entrance to your bathroom, use it on the inside! This one keeps the toilet and sink area separate (and brings some serious farmhouse flair):
Play up the texture on your door with different screens. We like how the industrial feel of this bathroom starts at the door and carries into the room by the brick wall:
When closed, a sliding bathroom door adds extra charm to its adjacent room. When open, it extends your space! Who wouldn’t love a beautiful view like this one?
If a wooden door doesn’t suit your taste, check out this one in glass. It keeps the sliding feature and is a sleek way to tuck away storage:
Whether you need to save on space or just love the look of them (we know we do!), sliding barn doors are a stylish option worth a try.
