I love your simple but ingenious way of thinking things through. I'm an old Kentucky country boy,and I was raised if its made.....you can make it work with wood! Thanks for all your hard work. I know there is alot more thinking that goes into your work than it seems in the length of the videos. Thanks again.
Great Idea John. I like the wooden wheels. I do have an additional idea for the center of the wheel. Being a plumber I work with pvc pipe. If you use 1 1/2'' pvc for the center of your wheel and then use 1'' for the piece for it to roll on in the center you will have a very smooth surface and never have to lubercate it. They fit inside each other nicely. I cut the 1'' pvc slightly larger than the 1 1/2'' pvc. I then used a 1/4'' carriage bolt to tie it all together with. The nut on the back side was sunk in with a washer on the rear so as not to hit the wall. I also used a couple of 1/4'' fender washers 1 1/2'' OD on each side of the 1'' pvc pipe. Not really a must but makes it a little better yet. I also cheat by using my home built cnc machine to build with. Thanks for your efforts. Jerry
the wood track matching the door looks real clean. this is much more better looking than the black metal tracks sold in stores. i’ll use this at my house. nice job !
John, I really appreciate your creativity and talent. Thank you for your time and effort in creating content for us all to enjoy and learn from. All the best.
When I saw you had like slots in the door top I thought you'd put the roller struts inside the door so there's a flush surface on the outside and it would offset the door from the wall for future trim. Love your videos and professionalism. Your projects are always stunning and an encouragement to me to take your path. Thank you!
Thanks Andy! And congratulations on hitting a home run with your band saw feather board / point fence project. I bet you weren't expecting to get over a million views on that one :)
John this is amazing. I love your work brother. I love your overall theme of making things out of wood that are usually metal. For a plywood door it sure came out beautiful. Maybe for fun you could make a set of rack and pinion gears instead of the round wheels
Thanks for the video. I will probably be using this design to make a door for my bedroom. The only thing I would change is I will probably screw the stops from the bottom instead of gluing them like you did. That way if I want to slide the door off I can unscrew the stops and slide out. Thanks again. You get a new sub.
Another bit of brilliance. Thank you! There was a door with this style slider at my old work place. It must be well over 100 years old and well over a ton and is still in daily use. I reckon the design stands the test of time!
I made hardware for doors on my TV cabinet from screen door rollers and aluminum flat bar, was thinking of using pulleys for a full size door , hadn't considered using wood, your idea is a good option because you can make all of it
Nice door! I must admit, when you built the painted doors, I didn’t think about building my own. Now that I’ve seen one stained/clear coated, I’m definitely building one of your doors. You do great work and I learn a ton from every video.
I was thinking about the same thing for a bedroom closet door but was wondering about the type of bearing to use; Thanks for the Genius solution, now I just need to come up with the time to do this. I love your videos
This is great, John! I think these types of projects are your best. Super creative in finding new ways to tackle common projects. Just the techniques alone here set your experience apart from others. Thanks!
This is awesome. I'm not a fan of the regular rolling barn door style but this is way more tasteful. I don't know why, maybe it's more home looking and less industrial.
I'm amazed you could make the door on your temporary bench top extensions, and not have to do it on the floor (for flatness). Good to know there's another easier way than kneeling on a hard floor.
This is really awesome! Barn door hardware is so damned expensive, it's so great to see a substantially cheaper alternative, especially one that you can customize to look so great.
Looks surprisingly good for being mostly plywood, but you did say you were selective. I like it and might want to try this someday so thanks for sharing!
everyone knows you showed it to your wife so you could spend more time doing what you love, and it’s a perfect excuse to be in your shop and she won’t say anything as usual because it’s “for her” you’re not fooling anyone, and your wife knows this. “he’s in the shop, but this time he’s building something for me”. meanwhile you’re smiling like a kid that stole the cookie and everyone is happy.......for now lol
I love the work, more can i not say!!!! Best wishes for the next work from Bavaria for you and the family all the best. RESPECT from Martin. Thank's for this Video. 💯💯💯💯💯🆒️🆒️🆒️🆒️🆒️🗜🔨🗜🔨🚪🚪🚪🚪📏📐📏📐
Just finished the weekendshift and now watched the video. Already + 39k views. This deserves +150k views in short time, and preferably lots more ( so a tripple or quadruple ??😀) !!! Excellent build and article , but excellent is the standard here!👍👌
LOVE it !!! I need to have 2 of these barn doors for a remodel to save space and the metal track is SO expensive.. Thank you for this, I didn't know it would work being made out of wood.
...Rather than deal with it, I'm gonna hide it ! LOVE IT !! Thanks John, NOW I has the solution for the basement bulkhead interior door that I've been looking for. Please keep solving all my problems in life ( hell, someone's got to do it)
Nice job. I like the way you sort of design on the fly. I know you have a pretty good idea of what you want and how you are going to get it but then there's that little issue you hadn't considered. But, there is always a work around to get the job done. I pretty much work this way as well. I'll have everything drawn out and planned but there's always that little issue that comes up and has to be taken care of. Never let the small things keep you from getting the job done.

I am sitting here just smiling at how cleaver and creative you are! Very nice sliding door, simply blown away!

The way you think never ceases to amaze me! Thanks for all you do for your subscribers.

The quality of your content & craftsmanship is an order of magnitude better than any other diy channel. Please keep up the great work!
Brilliant! I love the way you use whatever you have on hand rather than buying store bought hardware. Very inspirational.
Love the construction of the doors’ rollers as well as the look of the finished door. Real classy look. Thanks for sharing John
I missed this video somehow. My only remark was I wanted you to show off the finished door longer at the end.
Thanks, I always learn so much!
I'm impressed with your "vision" and even more impressed with the execution.. wooden wheels "FANTASTIC"
Every one of your projects is valuable but some stand out with a special excellence. This is one them.
This is simple compared to many of your other projects, but I have to honestly tell you, it is one of my favorites of yours. Well, done!
That looks really nice! I have to admit, I click the "like" button on every video you post before they even start, and they never disappoint!
the wood track matching the door looks real clean.
this is much more better looking than the black metal tracks sold in stores.
i’ll use this at my house.
nice job !
Excellent, making it all out of wood. Thanks for showing this video. I like it.
Nice ! The stop blocks hidden in the rail with the angle cut was a genius idea !
Great design for the all door, love it !
John, I really appreciate your creativity and talent. Thank you for your time and effort in creating content for us all to enjoy and learn from. All the best.
Brilliant - if I ever need a "barn door" you're my man - I saved this video to help me make my barn door. If you have plans you'll get my $$.
When I saw you had like slots in the door top I thought you'd put the roller struts inside the door so there's a flush surface on the outside and it would offset the door from the wall for future trim. Love your videos and professionalism. Your projects are always stunning and an encouragement to me to take your path. Thank you!
Cool project, love the caulk tube bushing!
Thanks Andy!
And congratulations on hitting a home run with your band saw feather board / point fence project. I bet you weren't expecting to get over a million views on that one :)
I've been wanting to make a small barn door but haven't found the hardware to fit what I want... I think you're onto something here!
Wait... you do small?
:)
@@JohnHeisz Right?! Maybe that's my problem there.
John this is amazing. I love your work brother. I love your overall theme of making things out of wood that are usually metal. For a plywood door it sure came out beautiful. Maybe for fun you could make a set of rack and pinion gears instead of the round wheels
I really like the look of the wooden wheels. Great idea with the plastic bushings.
Looks great John, I like the wooden wheels.
ya me to
Very nice job indeed. Always satisfying to see a job built start to finish. Nicely done.
Thanks for the video. I will probably be using this design to make a door for my bedroom. The only thing I would change is I will probably screw the stops from the bottom instead of gluing them like you did. That way if I want to slide the door off I can unscrew the stops and slide out. Thanks again. You get a new sub.
Pretty awesome design John, not only is it inexpensive and practical but it looks great
Very practical. And looks great, too.
Did he say cost?
What an incredible project ! Genius design , simple and perfect !
Man, you are such a crafty mo-fo. That's a great solution and looks nice with the rest of the room.
Another bit of brilliance. Thank you! There was a door with this style slider at my old work place. It must be well over 100 years old and well over a ton and is still in daily use. I reckon the design stands the test of time!
can't believe how beautiful Plywood can look, great job John 😉
I made hardware for doors on my TV cabinet from screen door rollers and aluminum flat bar, was thinking of using pulleys for a full size door , hadn't considered using wood, your idea is a good option because you can make all of it
nice work John, watching from Zimbabwe.
Very nice project.. very simple even for the inexperienced guy a d yet it looks so original... thank you for sharing
Гениально! Это самое крутое видео про раздвижные двери, что я видела!!!! Просто отлично! И наверное не шумное, отличии от металла. Вы супер столяр!
John Heisz , congratulations on your work, greetings from Brazil
I really admire the way your engineer your projects.
very cool door and the light feature above the door is very nice also!
🙄. Seriously underrated! Your projects are inspiring and your talent undeniable! Keep it up John! I love your work!

Nice door! I must admit, when you built the painted doors, I didn’t think about building my own. Now that I’ve seen one stained/clear coated, I’m definitely building one of your doors. You do great work and I learn a ton from every video.
Very nice John. I built my own when my son was born for his room. Looks great!
Felicitaciones, lo más ingenioso que vi hasta ahora. Saludos desde Argentina
You sir are a genius! This is going to save hundreds of dollars on buying store bought hardware. Thank you.
For an inside door, the use of wooden wheels and a slotted track is very slick or cool. Most of the wheels are usually metal pulleys and metal track.
I was thinking about the same thing for a bedroom closet door but was wondering about the type of bearing to use; Thanks for the Genius solution, now I just need to come up with the time to do this. I love your videos
Drilling out the 4 holes around the wheel was well worth it. It looks great in motion.
I love the wood hardware. What a money saver!! The door looks great.
This is what I was looking for. Now I can plan my chances in my home.
У вас золотые руки!Вы молодец!Очень-очень красиво!!!Успехов вам и здоровья!
Very nice. With apopriate tools and talent we can do anything. Thanks for idea.
Absolutely genius. Proud to be Canadian
This is great, John! I think these types of projects are your best. Super creative in finding new ways to tackle common projects. Just the techniques alone here set your experience apart from others. Thanks!
Not only it rolls, but it also rocks. Good job.
This really looks so natural and I think This is just what I'm gonna do in my next project, big thank!
BRILLIANT this mans a genius.
😊 😊 😊 Very nice I like it. It's beautiful. 😊 😊 😊
One of your better video's. Enjoy the channel...
Design, building, and video presentation all get "A+" from me. Just subscribed.
You are a talented artist my friend. I watch a lot of great woodworking channels but what you do is art.
Looks great. In my opinion looks better than mixing wood and metal hardware and you can stained and wax.
Amazing, elegant and functional. Great work and inspiring!
The fit and finish of your work doesn't get enough love. Love the wood track and wheels.
Thanks Rick :)
The door and whole system came out great.
This is awesome. I'm not a fan of the regular rolling barn door style but this is way more tasteful. I don't know why, maybe it's more home looking and less industrial.
I'm amazed you could make the door on your temporary bench top extensions, and not have to do it on the floor (for flatness). Good to know there's another easier way than kneeling on a hard floor.
Amazing! Your genius blows my mind all the time. Great work again.
Gran trabajo amigo !! Saludos desde mí país argentina 🇦🇷
This is really awesome! Barn door hardware is so damned expensive, it's so great to see a substantially cheaper alternative, especially one that you can customize to look so great.
You are truly gifted....WOW GORGEOUS!
Love this idea and I think you made the right call by not painting the hangers black (It's not a red door after all). Looks awesome :)
Looks surprisingly good for being mostly plywood, but you did say you were selective. I like it and might want to try this someday so thanks for sharing!
Excellent idea and technique. I really like it.
Nice job... It looks way better than store bought
Thanks for showing this video. I'm in the process of remoding our bedroom and the wife is wanting this style of door
Really great work! Digging the concept of no metal in a sliding door... It really looks great. 👌
Интересное решение и двери и механизма ,мастер красавчик!!!
I'm not a fan of the "barn door" look, but without the iron wheels and track, using the wood for rollers and track, you made me a convert. Thanks.
I can't show this one to my wife, or I will have to make one for her. Nice work, love your videos. Thanks
everyone knows you showed it to your wife so you could spend more time doing what you love, and it’s a perfect excuse to be in your shop and she won’t say anything as usual because it’s “for her”
you’re not fooling anyone, and your wife knows this.
“he’s in the shop, but this time he’s building something for me”. meanwhile you’re smiling like a kid that stole the cookie and everyone is happy.......for now lol
Have you ever built a pocket door? I'm considering building one for a bathroom redo. I like the simplicity of this barn door build!
Nice work John. Roll on brother...
Definitely cheaper than buying metal hardware! It’s a different look but I like it. Great thinking on the use of a plastic bushing.
I love the work, more can i not say!!!!
Best wishes for the next work from Bavaria for you and the family all the best. RESPECT from Martin. Thank's for this Video.

I love this video! I’ve thought about diy “sliding barn door” styles often. This is a very helpful and inspiring demonstration!
Just finished the weekendshift and now watched the video. Already + 39k views. This deserves +150k views in short time, and preferably lots more ( so a tripple or quadruple ??😀) !!! Excellent build and article , but excellent is the standard here!👍👌
Beautiful. Pls consider making more to sell.
LOVE it !!! I need to have 2 of these barn doors for a remodel to save space and the metal track is SO expensive.. Thank you for this, I didn't know it would work being made out of wood.
Just simple and very useful thanks, buddy.
I like your style John, very nice design !
Thats a beautiful and simple idea sir. I think I will have to give it a try.
Very cool - I like this project. Nice work John.
I really like that design. Especially the wooden wheels.
Great looking door and what a fantastic idea with the wooden hardware, awesome execution as always!
Nice looking sir. I make all my barn doors. Rollers and track too.
Pure woodworking genius
That is NICE!!!!! I've mulling around something like that so thanks for solving it for me.
...Rather than deal with it, I'm gonna hide it ! LOVE IT !!
Thanks John, NOW I has the solution for the basement bulkhead interior door that I've been looking for. Please keep solving all my problems in life ( hell, someone's got to do it)
Hebat, alat-alatmu begitu lengkap sangat membantu mengembangkan ide kreatif👍
You can't help but love this door and track, definitely a money saver and a cool idea!!! 💯% 👍🇬🇧
The door looks really nice John.
