Barn front door

A designer door with extra sustainable credentials. There's a lot to love about our reclaimed wood "Barn" door. Handmade in reclaimed pine, the beauty of this stand-out door lies in the rustic texture and look of the grain. While each piece also comes with its own bit of unique history. Please note, some planks feature joint lines between planks, both vertically and horizontally. Some planks feature weather-beaten layers of paint with knots and nail holes. These imperfections and repairs are an essential part of the character and beauty of the wood. 

Our reclaimed wood is substantial & weighty, so it's only possible to use it on one side of the door. Giving you the perfect opportunity to make an individual statement on the internal side. You can choose any of our other designs & colour options to achieve your desired finish (check the gallery to see a couple of examples).

Quick note: we appreciate the name may cause a little confusion if you're looking for an actual barn door! This door is designed as a front/entrance door only.

Barn front door options

Dive into all the detail on our Barn design in the picture gallery and dropdowns below. This information will help you to understand all the bespoke choices available to you.

Do get in touch if you have any questions or need advice. 

  • The Barn design is available on one side only (due to the weight).
  • We will quote the inside as our "Raw" design as standard but a limited selection of other designs are also available (other designs will add to the price of your quote)
  • Urban Front are a supply only company, however, our doors are supplied fully fitted with locks, hinges, handles and frames. We cannot supply a door without the frame.
Door materials: natural reclaimed wood (+other choices for the internal side)

Our Barn design is available in reclaimed wood on the external side:

Internal side

The internal side of this door will be a different design/material (by default, we recommend the Raw but you can choose from most of the other designs if preferred).

You can choose any of our 4 standard natural hardwoods or a RAL-painted colour for a dual-coloured statement door.

Door opening style: hinged or pivot
  1. The main difference between a hinged and pivot opening is visual.
  2. A pivot opening is a very popular contemporary style and makes a bold statement. It will reduce the walkthrough area by around 150-200mm compared to a hinged door, so keep this in mind when planning your space.
  3. The minimum width of our pivot doors starts at 1200mm (including the frame).
  4. There is no price difference between these 2 styles of opening.

 View our short animations below to see a hinged & pivot opening in action.

Door sizes

Urban Front specialise in oversized, extra wide and/or tall doors but we also make standard sizes.

 

Hinged opening

Pivot opening

Standard sizes (up to)

1040mm (w) x 2100mm (h)

1200mm (w) x 2400mm (h)

Max. sizes (up to)

1500mm (w) x 3000mm (h)

1500mm (w) x 3000mm (h)

 

Good to know

  1. Doors larger than our standard door sizes use more materials and take longer to make, our pricing structure goes up in increments based on this.
  2. When you request a quote, we'll ask for the total structural opening size including the space for the frame and any side/overhead panels. Measurements don't need to be 100% exact at this stage but as close as possible to ensure we quote the correct price band.
  3. We will need the final precise measurements once your order has been placed (we recommend asking your builder or fitter to confirm these for you (if they haven't done so already when you request a quote)).
Door structure: recessed or fully flush

The door structure relates to how the door is built and how it looks within the frame. We will ask you whether you want a recessed or fully flush door.

Recessed: the external door face ("door leaf") is slightly set back in the frame. This door is 80mm thick (part of our e80 range). 

Fully flush: the external door face ("door leaf") sits flat in-line with the front of the frame. This door is a market-leading 98mm thick (part of our e98 range).

Watch our animation below to see an example of the visual difference.

Good to know

  1. Internally, both options are built flush.
  2. A fully flush structure comes at a premium price to our standard recessed construction.
  3. We recommend choosing a recessed door if air-testing is important.
  4. We recommend fully flush doors are protected by a porch or canopy - learn more about the benefits of canopies here.
Door configuration & glass options

Glass

Urban Front can provide an enormous variety and combination of configuration options and you can choose to have matching wood/glass side and/or overhead panels.

Soft/self-close

We also offer soft/self-close options - ask about our concealed door closer (if choosing a hinged door) or our sprung pivot door closer (for pivot doors). These are ideal if you're planning to fit the door into full wall architectural glazing or glass side panels (sidelights), to prevent the door slamming shut.

Door locking & security

All of our locking systems are highly secure and a 5 point lock is fitted as standard on our doors. 

Optional extras:

You can choose to upgrade the locking to our other systems:

  1. Self-locking (mechanical, no wiring required)
  2. Motorised locking (electrical, wiring required)
  3. Fingerprint entry: register up to 99 fingerprint sets to unlock the door from the outside without a key. Also requires motorised locking.

Please note:

  • Motorised locking is supplied fitted only and will require a professional electrician onsite for final wiring.
  • Urban Front can supply the fingerprint entry option but does not supply or fit other 3rd party keyless entry systems.

Choosing any of these optional extras will increase the price of your quote v.s our standard 5 point locking system. Download our front door specifications to learn more about locking.

Urban Front are LPCB & Secured By Design certified. Learn more about front door security here.
