Draft proofing an indoors barn door




We have arrived very small entryway leading into a bigger hallway. Since this is an old house there are some draft issues. We have had av double curtain hung in the doorway between these two rooms. It is not av Great look but it works. Now my mind is set on replacing the curtain with a barndoor. But I am worried about all the air and draft running in between the door andre the Wall. IT is obviously not andre airtight solution, but is there anyway I can close it a little extra? Any good advise?

Not a fan of barn doors here. Way overused IMHO and will date your decorating to a certain time. I would be concerned about weather proofing the space where the cold is entering and not worry about the barn door. Is it that you don't care if the entrance hall is cold but do not want the barn door room to be cold?
