The moldings are typically applied to the front face only, but can be applied to both sides upon request. This style is defined by its bold geometric lines and rustic architectural character. Barn X doors are compatible with wood veneer, high-pressure laminate, or compact laminate, giving designers flexibility in both visual tone and material performance.
