More Beautiful Doors FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I make my first door with this mod?
Craft a Door Frame using the recipe shown in the mod wiki, then place the Door Frame and any vanilla block together in a crafting grid to create a door that looks like that block. You'll get two doors from one craft.
What blocks can I use to make doors?
You can combine a Door Frame with almost all blocks in the game—stone, dirt, wood variants, concrete, terracotta, and many others—to create matching doors. Experiment with different blocks to see which ones work.
Do these doors actually open and close?
Yes, decorative doors function like normal doors—they open and close when you interact with them and can be controlled by redstone. The mod only changes their appearance to match the block you crafted them from.
Can I use these doors with redstone?
Yes, decorative doors respond to redstone signals just like vanilla doors, so you can use them with redstone contraptions, buttons, levers, and pressure plates.
Why won't my door craft?
Make sure you're using a Door Frame (not a regular door) and that the block you're pairing it with is supported by the mod. Check the crafting recipe in the wiki to confirm you have the right ingredients in the right slots.
Do decorative doors work on servers?
Yes, decorative doors work on multiplayer servers as long as the mod is installed on both the server and all client machines.
Can I make double doors that open together?
You can place two decorative doors side by side, but they will open independently like vanilla doors—the mod does not add synchronized double-door mechanics.
Will these doors lag my game?
Decorative doors use vanilla block textures and standard door mechanics, so they should have minimal performance impact even with many doors placed.
Do I need to craft Door Frames for every door?
Yes, each door recipe requires one Door Frame plus one block, so you'll need to craft multiple Door Frames if you're making many doors.
Can I make doors from modded blocks?
Compatibility depends on the other mod—many popular mods' blocks will work, but some may not be supported. Test by attempting to craft with the block you want.
