Specializing in middle to high-end homes, but can work with most budgets. Owners Gates Dearen and Richard Walden have been serving the building products industry, specifically in Florida for over 25 years. They know the products, the industry, the market and what adds great value to a home. “At HomeRite, our approach is a little different. We’re simply looking to match you with the right windows for your home and your budget. Home improvements are enough of a hassle – we’re here to make your life easier with first-rate, energy efficient products, affordable prices, installers that know best practices and respect of your home. — Gates Dearen and Richard Walden
"After I had posted on Angi my bad experience with Window Rite, Markus called to make an appmt for a tech to come by and install my original lower window panel, which he said had been found in their warehouse and which he said had been totally "re-glassed/insulated". Tech came 2 days later, August 25, 2023. He had trouble removing the bad (incorrect model) panel that had been installed March 22, 2023 and, therefore, Markus rushed over to my house and both of them removed the bad replacement, which also had started to fog up. They did a perfect install of my original (now repaired) panel - it looks good and works well. So all is well that ends well. Just wish it had been more amicable and business like from the start, without me having to write a bad review to change their attitude."

Installing a barn door can be straightforward under the right conditions. When there is ample, clear wall space and the installation involves only attaching tracks and mounting the door, the process is relatively simple. However, if obstructions such as electrical outlets, door frames, or wall fixtures must be modified or removed, the installation becomes more complex and requires professional expertise. A professional can make these adjustments safely and efficiently, ensuring the door operates perfectly and enhances the overall space.
A bottom track is necessary, especially as the door's weight increases. Without a bottom track, heavy doors can swing against the wall and cause damage. The bottom of the door should be half an inch from the floor to ensure proper clearance. Sliding doors also need a bottom guide to prevent the door from coming off the track.
Barn doors can enhance a home's value by creating a distinctive look and improving interior functionality. Homes with barn doors can command a higher sale price compared to those without them. Barn doors introduce a modern design element that opens up living spaces and effectively conceals storage areas. This upgrade not only improves the overall aesthetic but also increases the property's market appeal through added versatility and visual interest.
Yes, a barn door should be larger than the opening. The door should be two to three inches wider than the opening and about one inch taller to ensure proper coverage. Rooms requiring more privacy, such as guest rooms and bathrooms, need additional overlap to reduce noise and eliminate gaps.
