Description

Cherry Trapdoor is a wooden trapdoor (a thin 1×1 hatch) that players open and close by hand without redstone. Two Cherry Trapdoors come from six Cherry Planks placed in a 2×3 shape in the 3×3 crafting grid, and Cherry Trapdoor stacks to 64. Cherry Trapdoor arrived in Java Edition 1.20 and Bedrock Edition 1.20.0.

Cherry Trapdoor has hardness 3 and blast resistance 3 (how well the block survives explosions). Any tool breaks Cherry Trapdoor, but an axe is the fastest. Cherry Trapdoor gives off no light and can be waterlogged (water stays inside the block). Opening and closing Cherry Trapdoor plays its own cherry wood sound.
