Barn door framing system

A door frame system for a sliding door construction for a barn or similar structure, comprising in combination:

• a frame including a plurality of frame members including vertically spaced top and bottom horizontal frame members and a pair of horizontally spaced vertical side frame members coupled with said top and bottom frame members to define a generally rectilinear door frame, wherein at least said top horizontal frame member comprises elongate, substantially U-shaped channel members;
• and a hanger assembly for hanging said door frame, said hanger assembly comprising:
• a truck assembly engageable in a guide track of a U-shaped construction, an elongate, externally threaded fastener member pivotally carried by said truck assembly for extending through an aperture in said top horizontal frame member of said door frame, a bracket member engaged against the open sidewall of said U-shaped top horizontal frame member, said bracket member including at least one upwardly projecting flange dimensioned to interfit closely within said open sidewall to oppose inward collapse of the adjacent sidewalls, and an aperture formed in said bracket member through which said elongate threaded fastener member extends and a pair of complimentary internally threaded fastener members threadably engaged with said elongate fastener member one engaged above said top horizontal frame member, the other engaged below against said bracket member for grippingly engaging said frame member therebetween and threadably movable to define the height of said door when hung from said elongate fastener member while substantially resisting vertical movement of the door in response to external forces applied thereto.
