Be different<br />
“We had this barn door made from scratch,”<br />
says interior stylist Ash Young, referring to the<br />
stunning entrance to her Kaiser kitchen in her<br />
Damac Hills family villa. Its rustic look introduces<br />
the cosy space and makes a lovely divide between<br />
the living room and kitchen.<br />
BARN<br />
How it works: Barn<br />
doors are usually<br />
made from one or<br />
two large wooden<br />
panels, hung from a<br />
heavy bar mounted<br />
above the floor,<br />
either by inches or<br />
by a foot or more,<br />
depending on where<br />
they are used.<br />
Perfect for: Just like<br />
a pocket door, a barn<br />
door slides out of<br />
the way instead of<br />
being swung open,<br />
meaning no usable<br />
space is lost. What’s<br />
more, these doors<br />
are virtually noiseless,<br />
as long as their<br />
rollers and track are<br />
kept well lubricated.<br />
Kaiser Kitchens<br />
Tip<br />
THE ONLY LIMITING<br />
FACTORS ARE<br />
WEIGHT AND WHAT<br />
YOUR WALL WILL<br />
SUPPORT FOR<br />
HARDWARE BEFORE<br />
BUCKLING SO MAKE<br />
SURE YOU CALL IN A<br />
PROFESSIONAL<br />
