Minecraft: craft door - how it works

Craft a door in Minecraft to secure your home from monsters and other players. You can choose between wood or iron. In this article we will tell you which recipe you need and where the differences between the two door types are.

Make doors in Minecraft

For a door in Minecraft you need six iron or wooden blocks each. If you choose the wood variant, you can open or close your door at any time with a right click. Iron doors, on the other hand, can only be operated with a separate switch or a pressure plate.

• Place two rows of three wooden or iron blocks next to each other in the crafting table to make the door (see photo). The design of the door differs depending on the type of wood.
• The finished door can be placed like any other block. The special feature: The door can be attached to either the front or the rear end of a block.
• Tip: If you build two similar doors next to each other, you have a double door. If you then operate a pressure plate or a switch, both doors open simultaneously.

If you also want to have a garden, you should make a fence in Minecraft. This article is based on Minecraft 1.8.8.
