Macaw’s Doors – New Doors in Minecraft

Would you like to add some more decorations to your Minecraft home? Do you always have to come up with artificial types of interiors or install additional texture packs to upgrade the graphics? Feel free to use the Macaw’s Doors mod, which adds new types of doors to the cubic world. Moreover, there are not just several doors, but about a hundred. Thus, everyone can choose an option to their liking and use different types of architectural solutions, as well as various «features» and blocks, to decorate a medieval castle, a modern house, or a huge cathedral.

Each door is unique and has a cool appearance and design. Besides, you can use almost all types of wood that exist in Minecraft. Currently, the Macaw’s Doors mod has over 23 million downloads in the largest modding community. The authors promptly release new versions, fix numerous bugs, and add new content. In general, we can immediately say that it is one of the best mods to transform Minecraft interiors and exteriors.

New Types of Doors

There are lots of doors in this mod, and they all differ from each other, both in the types of wood from which the structure is made and in shapes. For example, there are «shoji» doors, warped doors, wild west doors, and many others. We provide several categories of doors. This will help you roughly understand what awaits you in the game after installing this mod and how it allows you to tweak any of your buildings.

It makes no sense to consider all the doors in this article since it is easier to enter the game and see for yourself what each door looks like, and whether it is suitable for your building or not. What’s the most convenient about this mod is that you can easily go to any map that you have already created and apply the doors from the mod, thus replacing the default vanilla doors or adding some new options.

Shoji Style Doors

A shoji is a Japanese-style door, which is actively used in many Japanese interiors. You could have probably seen these constructions in movies, anime, or in different games. Now the same options are available in Minecraft, where such interior solutions can seriously change the appearance of any building.

In total, there are 16 «shoji» doors, which have several subtypes. For example, there are standard options, and there are «solid» ones, where the window completely takes up the whole space. In the standard shoji, the «grid» occupies only part of the structure.

You can compare several of our options, which we have posted to show you the difference between the doors of the same style, however of different subtypes.

If we compare the crafts of these doors, we’ll see they are also different from each other. For example, regular «shoji doors» use blocks, and solid options use half-blocks. As a result, you can save a little more wood if you craft solid «shoji» doors.

«Farming» Doors

Another category is «farming» doors. These design options also look different from other doors, and some players will surely «like» them.

As you can see, these doors have a similar pattern, and they differ from each other mainly in color. However, these doors are extremely important. The fact is that all players use different types of blocks in Minecraft. Accordingly, not every door can fit in your interior design. And here we should thank the author of the Macaw’s Doors modification, which provides a huge choice of various farming doors.

So, here are a few crafting options so that you see how to create barn doors in Minecraft. You only need to change the wood in your recipe, and the arrangement of blocks will remain the same.

Glass Doors

They are not completely made of glass like, for example, many shopping mall doors in real life. But we really need these doors in Minecraft. Now everyone can decorate their house with this cool design option, in which the upper part consists of glass in the form of a square, and the lower part is made from wood .

Such door options can be used for both the interior of the building and its exterior. There are many options for different types of wood, and we have several crafting recipes for you. Another important feature of these doors is that you can use one craft to get three constructions at once. The previous options had two from each craft.

Modern Doors

The author has also added some modern-style doors, so there is another category to choose from. Now each player can have different design options, each of which has a particular appearance.

One of the main advantages of these doors is unusually shaped gaps, through which you can look inside. Although you cannot see the glass, it is surely used in this gap since it is one of the main crafting elements in this case. The door looks stylish and visually pleasing. It can be used not only in modern houses but also in other buildings. It all depends on your imagination and architectural experience.

Cottage Doors

The developer has added 8 unusually styled cottage doors of various colors. Another peculiarity is that these doors have different handles. The doors look quite nice and can be used in almost any building, be it a summer house, a private house, an apartment building, a cathedral, a castle, and other types of buildings in Minecraft.

To craft cottage doors, you need a pattern (which is a new item with its own crafting from the Macaw’s Doors mod), so it is important to take this fact into account.

Door Patterns

Door patterns is a separate mod option designed for crafting new types of structures, which are later used in crafting other doors.

This means that first, you create a pattern, and then you use it for crafting, for example, cottage doors. The patterns differ only in color, so here are several types of crafting so that you can roughly understand how to create such items.

There are also iron doors, four-panel doors, glass doors, metal doors, horse stable doors, «wild west» doors, and many other types. The developer of Macaw’s Doors has been updating and improving his add-on for many years. What’s more, he promptly introduces more different options, including new types of trees, if any updates appear in Minecraft.

In general, we can say that it is one of the best mods for adding doors to Minecraft. Currently, there are almost no competing add-ons that could «provide better» quality and assortment. We highly recommend using this mod if you want to upgrade your buildings and eventually get something new.
