Why Our Barn Door Wheels Use POM + Steel — A Better, Quieter Choice
Posted on November 16 2025,
When designing our barn door hardware, durability and smooth performance are always our top priorities. That’s why our wheels are steel on the inside with a specially engineered POM outer layer.
Why POM?
POM is a premium engineering material known for being stronger and more durable than nylon, especially after thousands of opening-and-closing cycles. It creates a quiet, smooth glide while helping to protect both the wheel and the steel track from long-term wear.
Our tracks are made from 6mm thick Q235 cold-rolled steel, finished with:
• Electrostatic spray coating — waterproof and wear-resistant
• Phosphate layer — anti-corrosion for indoor & outdoor use
Combined with our double-bearing roller design, your barn door moves smoothly, quietly, and lasts longer.
