When building or updating a post and beam barn, the frame is only the beginning. The right accessories add personality, boost functionality, and bring your space to life. At Post & Beam Barns by Country Carpenters, our New England-style barn kits can be customized by choosing from our wide selection of accessories. Every detail matters, from handcrafted hardware to classic weathervanes and sliding barn doors.
Why Sliding Barn Doors Stand Out
A sliding barn door is one of the most versatile upgrades you can make to your barn. Unlike traditional swinging doors, sliding doors move smoothly along a track, conserving space and improving access. They’re ideal for wide openings, tight corners, or as elegant interior dividers.
More than just practical, sliding barn doors add a rustic, timeless look that complements the natural charm of post and beam construction. With several styles and finishes available, it’s easy to find one that suits your space and your taste.
Accessorize for Style and Function
While sliding barn doors are a standout feature, other thoughtfully chosen accessories can enhance your barn’s look and usability. Here are a few to consider:
- Cupolas – Crown your barn with a classic New England element that adds timeless appeal.
- Hardware – Our hinges, bolts, and hooks are forged by our third-generation blacksmith, delivering durable, high-quality pieces that add traditional character to your barn doors.
- Windows – Brighten your interior with natural light. Choose from a variety of styles, including bow-top, barn sash, and traditional transom windows, to match your barn’s aesthetic.
- Weathervanes – A distinctive feature that adds personality and charm while helping you easily track wind direction.
- Flower Boxes – A beautiful finishing touch that brings color and warmth to your barn’s exterior.
Each feature contributes to a more customized, attractive, and functional space—making your barn feel complete.
Make Your Barn Uniquely Yours
Whether your barn serves as a workspace, guesthouse, or storage area, the right accessories can elevate its function and style.
