A Plus Shutters & Shades brings a decade of construction expertise to every barn door installation in Saxony. We’re not just door installers – we’re part of the A Plus Home Remodel family, with deep roots in transforming Texas homes.

Every door comes with our installation warranty because we stand behind our work. When you choose local craftsmanship, you get people who care about getting it right the first time.
We start with a free consultation at your Saxony home, taking precise measurements and discussing your style preferences. No guesswork – just accurate planning that ensures proper fit and function.
Next, we help you choose from 9 distinct styles and 35 finishes. Whether you want rustic wood grain or sleek modern panels, we’ll find options that complement your existing décor.
Installation day is straightforward. Our experienced team handles all the mounting, hardware attachment, and final adjustments. We test the sliding mechanism multiple times and walk you through proper operation before we leave.

Every barn door we install is crafted with Texas durability in mind. Our wood options include traditional oak, pine, and reclaimed materials that handle our climate’s temperature swings and humidity changes.
Saxony homes benefit from our understanding of local architecture. Ranch-style homes often need wider openings for master suites, while two-story homes might require custom heights for dramatic entryways.
We source materials locally when possible and always use heavy-duty hardware rated for daily use. Your investment includes professional-grade tracks, rollers, and mounting systems designed to operate smoothly for decades, not just years.
You’ll need at least 8 inches of clearance above your door opening for the track system, though we prefer 10-12 inches when possible. This gives us proper mounting space and ensures smooth operation.
During our free consultation, we measure your specific situation and work around any obstacles like crown molding or low ceilings. In some Saxony homes with standard 8-foot ceilings, we use low-profile hardware that requires minimal clearance.
We’ve solved challenging installations before – including homes with decorative beams or unusual ceiling heights. The key is proper planning during the measurement phase.
Our 9 styles range from traditional crossbuck patterns to sleek modern panels with clean lines. Think rustic farmhouse versus contemporary minimalist – we cover the full spectrum of design preferences.
The 35 finishes include natural wood stains, painted colors, and specialty treatments like distressed or weathered looks. Popular choices in Saxony include classic white, barn red, and natural oak tones that complement Texas home styles.
We bring samples to your consultation so you can see how different combinations look in your actual lighting conditions. What looks perfect in our showroom might appear different in your specific space.
Standard barn doors work well for bedrooms, closets, and pantries, but bathrooms require special consideration. Traditional barn door designs leave small gaps around the edges that don’t provide complete sound privacy.
For bathroom applications, we recommend our specialty designs with tighter tolerances or suggest alternative sliding door systems that offer better sealing. We’re honest about limitations because your comfort matters more than making a sale.
Many Saxony homeowners use barn doors for master bedroom walk-in closets, home offices, or laundry rooms where the slight gap isn’t a concern. The key is matching the right door type to your specific privacy needs.
Most single barn door installations take 2-4 hours, depending on your wall type and any prep work needed. Drywall installations are faster than brick or stone walls that require special anchoring.
We schedule installation appointments with realistic time windows, not rushed slots that force shortcuts. If we discover unexpected challenges – like outdated wiring or structural issues – we’ll discuss options before proceeding.
Double doors or complex custom installations might take a full day, but we’ll give you accurate timing during the consultation phase. We’d rather over-estimate and finish early than leave you waiting.
Barn doors are surprisingly low-maintenance once properly installed. Monthly cleaning with a soft cloth keeps them looking good, and occasional hardware checks ensure smooth operation.
The track system needs periodic cleaning to remove dust and debris that can cause sticking or noise. We show you exactly what to look for and provide a simple maintenance checklist during installation.
Most issues we see come from improper installation by other companies – doors that weren’t properly aligned or hardware that wasn’t rated for the door weight. Quality installation prevents most maintenance headaches down the road.
Yes, we warranty our installation work because we stand behind our craftsmanship. This covers mounting, hardware attachment, and proper door operation – not normal wear items like rollers after years of use.
Our warranty reflects our confidence in doing the job right the first time. We use professional-grade materials and proper installation techniques that prevent common problems like sagging doors or loose hardware.
If something goes wrong with our installation work, we’ll return to fix it at no charge. That’s the difference between choosing experienced local installers versus taking chances with unknown contractors.
