Lowe's Lumber sells a Barn door kit. But we made one for my bathroom door. You can see in the photos, we used a track rail bar, you can't see to roller we attached to the door (3 of them, one on each end, and one in the middle. We had to put a support piece of wood up, because we used 1/2 inch wood, that is heavy. You can use much lighter wood. I love this door. When it is closed, it is hard to see there is a room behind it! I just added a handle to close it. It was a fun project! Good luck with yours!
Buy a kit for a sliding door at Home Depot, Lowe's, etc. or online. The door attaches to slider - we have 3 of them in our house. Because they are raised away from the wall - they do not provide any privacy and can be moved easily (pushed out) from the bottom, unless you add another track on the bottom of the door (which we did not do).
