Description and features
First, let's look at the question like in Minecraft craft a door. A wooden door is made from 6 blocks of boards (it should be noted that the doors are the same color, no matter what color wooden boards you are using):
6 blocks of planks in a workbench = wooden door
Whereas iron is made from 6 iron ingots:
We lay out 6 iron ingots in the workbench and get iron door
How to craft a door in Minecraft has become clear, now let's look at some of the features of this block, since without this element not a single one can be built normal house(if you do not take into account temporary structures made of earth, etc.), because it is necessary to provide convenient passage to interior space buildings and prevent unwanted creatures (whether other players or hostile mobs) from getting there.
The door can be installed either on the outer edge of the block or on the inside. How to place a door in Minecraft - it’s all very simple, first we take it in our hand, go to the selected place, move the cursor to the outer or inner edge of the lower block and press the right mouse button - that’s all - you can admire your work.
It is always placed with the front side where it was installed.
It should be noted that some mobs can knock down a wooden door, however, a spider is not capable of this, just as all mobs of the appropriate size can pass through a doorway, but a spider cannot. Evil monsters cannot break down an iron door.
Two doors can be placed side by side - in this case they form a regular double-leaf structure.
A wooden door opens by simply clicking on it with the right mouse button; in order to open an iron door, you must install either a lever or a button, or a pressure plate.
When the bottom block (the block on which the door stands) is knocked out, the door itself will also fall away, but it will remain standing even if the top and side blocks are destroyed.
It should be noted that in a secured territory, other players will not be able to open any door - this can only be done by the owner or a person who was added to this region (that is, he was granted all use rights).
So, you now know how to craft doors in Minecraft, so start decorating your home - make it an impregnable fortress for mobs and very convenient and comfortable for yourself!
Good luck and new achievements in the game!
Thanks to the guide, you already know how to build a house or even a palace for yourself, but how are you going to protect your home? And you will have to protect it, unless, of course, you want every creeper or skeleton you come across to come visit you and arrange a cheerful surprise, which, at best, will result in a slight scare. Of course, you can simply wall up the entrance to your “citadel of loneliness,” but this is somehow unaesthetic - you don’t just have a house made of mud or a faceless box, but a completely decent house. Let's figure out how you can protect your home.
The easiest way to restrict access to any shady outsiders is, no matter how banal it may sound, THE DOOR! And here there is one funny thing - not everyone knows how to make a door in Minecraft. Don't worry, after this short guide you will be able to craft no less than six types of doors. Let's move on directly to the crafting process. For aesthetes the most the best option will wooden doors, which can be crafted from all types of wood that can be found in the game:
What is the advantage of these doors - a door made of each type of wood looks different and if you want to diversify appearance your home, there are always several options to choose from. The disadvantage is that these doors can be broken down by evil mobs at higher difficulty levels.
For those who prefer reliability over aesthetics, there is a separate option - an iron door. The mobs will no longer be able to break this door, no matter how hard they try. The crafting recipe is similar to its wooden counterpart:
But the door opening system is already significantly different from wooden ones. If a regular door can be opened by right-clicking on it, then in order to open an iron door, you will need to bring a redstone signal to it. Levers and pressure plates will help you with this.
A few words about the installation. To place a door in an opening, you need to face that opening and it is best to be outside the house.
So, armed with the knowledge of how to make a door in Minecraft, you can now secure your home and not be afraid that upon returning from your next trip you will be greeted by an evil mob who accidentally passed by and came to visit!
There are many useful mechanisms you can use in Minecraft, but the most necessary one is definitely the door. A house without it can be attacked at any moment, wealth will be plundered, and the entire interior created by your labor will be destroyed in the blink of an eye by evil fashions. If there is no barrier at the entrance to the house, you will not survive the first night - the bloodthirsty monsters crawling out under the cover of darkness will take care of this.
Therefore, the entrances to the home you create need to be protected. AND best solution- make a door, although some people in minecraft prefer to simply wall up the entrance at night. Therefore, a novice player simply needs to master a fairly simple algorithm (recipe) that allows him to create (craft) a door in Minecraft.
Where to start? All new blocks (and items) must be made using crafting. It is important to remember that to obtain the desired result, the blocks in the craft must be arranged strictly in the same order as described in the recipe (as shown in the picture).
The mechanism we need can only be made using craft with a 3x3 window. If your craft still has a 2x2 window, you must create a workbench - this will give you a window increased to 3. A workbench is created using any four boards.
Now that we have everything we need for the job, let’s look at how to make the mechanism we need. There are only two types of doors - wood and iron. The wooden one is opened by hand (if there is no tool in it, otherwise this mechanism can be destroyed) or by pressing the right mouse button.
The iron one can only be opened using other mechanisms - a button or lever (or a red stone signal). It can be destroyed by destroying the block located at the base. At the same time, it will again turn into an item that you can pick up.
In minecraft liquids (water and lava) through open door They can’t get through, just as they can’t wash them away. Another positive point- you can shoot through it from the inside at approaching dangerous mobs. Also this mechanism will not burn. A villager can open, and a zombie (under certain conditions) can break down a wooden door.
Material - wood
A classic wooden door is the most accessible solution for anyone, even a beginner, Minecraft player. It is undoubtedly cheaper to make than iron, but it is less durable. Creating this mechanism is very easy. The right recipe includes any wood and the same workbench, the type of wood does not matter. Wood blocks are used to craft planks (one block equals four planks). A total of six boards are needed, they must be placed vertically in two rows on the craft.
We drag the mechanism created in this way in Minecraft into the inventory, then take it in our hands and install it in the desired place by clicking the right mouse button (it should be an opaque full block). Since the installation is facing the player, this means that during installation he must be outside the room (for example, outside the house). What to do to open this mechanism is described above.

Material - iron
If you need more high level security and you have iron ore, you can craft an iron door. It requires iron ingots. In Minecraft they are obtained by smelting iron ore or crafting iron blocks (one block will give you exactly 9 ingots). Melting in minecraft takes place in a furnace, which can be done using 8 cobblestones mined with a pickaxe.
Not a single building in Minecraft game cannot do without doors, or, in extreme cases, a hatch. Your house is surrounded by many zombies and creepers; of course, they will not be able to get through the door. In addition, enemy players will not be able to loot your chests, since the privacy of the territory also applies to doors.
How to make wooden doors in Minecraft
There are six types of wood for crafting doors, each of them will give you a different appearance mechanism. Follow the instructions to make a door out of wood:
- collect several blocks of wood, for crafting you will need six blocks of planks,
- create boards: drag your wood blocks into the player creation inventory and drag the resulting boards with the left mouse button,
- now go to the workbench,
- in the workbench inventory, arrange six blocks of planks in two vertical columns, as shown in the screenshot below,
- drag the doors into the lower survival inventory. Note that this results in three units of doors. Take the door in your hand and place it between two solid blocks with the right mouse button. You can open and close it by clicking the left mouse button. See what all kinds of door designs look like. From right to left: door made of tropical wood, acacia, dark oak,
- from right to left: door made of oak, birch, spruce wood. Choose the one you like best, collect the right tree and make boards out of it. Next, repeat the above steps.
How to make an iron door in Minecraft
The peculiarity of this door is that it is the strongest and without a pickaxe players will not break it. Also this is completely automatic door. It cannot be opened by clicking your hand; to open and close it you need to install a special pressure plate.
- To make an iron door, you will need six blocks of iron, which is quite a lot, because you will need as many as nine iron ingots. Place the iron blocks as in the screenshot.
- Take the door and place it between two solid blocks. To be able to open and close the mechanism, place an iron pressure plate in front of the door on both the front and back.
Now your home is reliably protected from outside players and creepers. Please note that placing the door next to glass will not work.
You don't have to watch a video on YouTube to understand how to make a piston door in Minecraft with or without traps. I offer you a nice gift for the Christmas tree in the form of detailed description with photo this process. Works in different versions, including 1.5.2.
Making a piston door is not difficult. With a little time you can get reliable protection from unwanted persons in a home or other building, including it will be suitable protection for a secret passage. It can be used at your own discretion, so it’s worth being smart and giving free rein to your imagination.
Piston door in minecraft: instructions for creating
Construction assumes the presence 4 sticky pistons
so that the design works properly.
How to do sticky piston in minecraft?
The sticky piston in minecraft is made using standard pistons on which slime is applied. Slime must be obtained from a small slug.
The standard solution involves the use of 4 cobblestones. You also need to take 3 boards (any wood), 1 iron ingot and 1 red dust. When it is ready, mucus is applied to it. Repeat the procedure 4 times.
Red dust in minecraft
Without it, you won’t be able to make pistons, so you need to get it. It appears when red ore splits. In this case, an iron pickaxe is used. The approximate yield is 4 – 5 dust for one red ore. This element is suitable for both a conductive role and for crafting a red torch and crafting a repeater. In total we make 4 red type repeaters.
Red repeater: recipe
First of all, we craft torches, of which you need at least 2 pieces. In addition, one torch takes one stick and the same amount of dust. We extract 3 stones for 1 repeater and also add red dust.
How to make a piston door in Minecraft?
To begin, install the pistons at a distance of 4 blocks. The front parts should face each other. We place a block of stone next to them. We make a hole 2 deep, 2 wide and 5 long. 
On inside another ditch is being made. 
Near the piston it is necessary place 1 stone block directly into the moat for each part of the structure. After this, we will install red torches near the placed blocks, after which we will remove the red dust. 
It is recommended to place several pressure plates near the structure and behind it with a distance of one block. After this, dust is applied to the slabs, and the bottom of the assembly should be covered with any of the available materials. 
For safety reasons, the highest possible delay is selected for repeaters. We press on the pressure plate and open the door, and it closes after a specified time.
