Description

Mangrove Door is crafted from six Mangrove Planks placed in two columns and three rows on a Crafting Table, and each craft yields three doors. Mangrove trees in mangrove swamps make Mangrove Door a renewable item (you can farm it endlessly), and the door has existed since Java Edition 1.19 and Bedrock Edition 1.19.0. Mangrove Door stacks to 64, can be mined by hand or with any tool, and drops itself when broken or when its support block is moved or broken.

Mangrove Door swings open when a player uses it, when a redstone signal powers a block next to it, and when the burst of a thrown Wind Charge hits it. In Java Edition, Mangrove Door is only 3/16 of a block thick, so the rest of its space stays passable. A builder who wants a cheap entrance that matches a mangrove palette can craft Mangrove Door in batches of three.

Guide

How to craft and use Mangrove Door in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Collect six Mangrove Planks

    Gather six Mangrove Planks, because Mangrove Door needs the matching mangrove variant of planks.

  2. 2

    Fill the crafting grid

    Open a Crafting Table and put Mangrove Planks into two columns and three rows to receive three Mangrove Doors.

  3. 3

    Place the door

    Aim at the top face of a full solid block, and use Mangrove Door; the lower half lands there and the upper half rises one block above.

  4. 4

    Open, close, or power it

    Use Mangrove Door to swing it, or send a redstone signal to a block next to Mangrove Door to open it and cut the signal to close it.

Use an axe to salvage

An axe breaks Mangrove Door faster than any other tool, so pick up a misplaced door with an axe.

Frequently asked questions

Which mobs open or break Mangrove Door?

Villagers and Piglins open Mangrove Door, Vindicators open it in Java Edition, and some Zombies can break it on Hard difficulty.

Can a Piston push Mangrove Door?

No. A Piston destroys Mangrove Door when it tries to push it, and a Sticky Piston cannot pull it.

Can Mangrove Door make an air pocket underwater?

In Java Edition, yes, because Mangrove Door cannot be waterlogged and so leaves breathable space in water. In Bedrock Edition, water can fill Mangrove Door, so the trick does not work.

Yes. One Mangrove Door smelts 1 item in a Furnace.
