Closet doors can be a really unique way to add some personality to a bedroom or hallway. Whether you’re adding your own flair to a set of wooden doors or building a DIY closet door in a barn-style, a special door can change the entire feel of a room. Maybe you just need to maximize your closet space by using a set of folding or french closet doors. Changing things up with a closet door makeover can make all the difference.

If you’re unsure of how you’d like to add this personal touch, the following categories provide some inspiration. You can take a cue from your other interior doors but why not shoot for the stars with a closet door makeover?

1. Barn-Style Closet Door Ideas

DIY closet doors have been popular for years. Barn doors have made their way in from the barn and are now the hottest trend in interior design. These large doors can come either on their own or in pairs. They glide on a large track that hangs overtop of the doorway.

You need to have plenty of space to make this type of door work. You should be able to move the door from covering the doorway completely to completely out of the way. This means you need to have a large enough blank wall area for the door to move in front of. If you have two doors, then you need this space on both sides of your closet. 

For a traditional barn door look, go with natural wood and black or iron hardware for the track. Choose a door that models the style of barn doors with planks and diagonal cross beams. If you like the rustic aesthetic in your bedroom, check out these The Best Rustic Bedroom Ideas.

If your home is more modern, then you can elevate your barn door and choose a style with a panel design. You can get more creative with the hardware and choose a silver-colored finish. You can also skip the traditional handle and choose something streamlined and sleek.
