Architectural Door Styles: Barn, Shoji, and Glass
guide
Specialized architectural door styles introduce glass panes, iron bars, and paper lattices into standard door openings.
Rustic Barn and Stable Doors
Farmhouses, rustic warehouses, and equestrian facilities benefit from heavy wooden doors reinforced with bracing or metal grates:
- Barn Door: Crafted by placing 2 sticks in the top row above 4 wooden planks arranged in a two-by-two square. This yields 2 barn door units (such as 2
Oak Barn Door, or 1 when using 4 bamboo stalks). - Barn Glassed Door: Crafted with 2 glass panes in the top row above 4 wooden planks in a two-by-two square, producing 3 barn glassed door units (such as 3
Oak Barn Glassed Door). - Stable Door: Crafted with 2 iron bars in the top row above 4 wooden planks in a two-by-two square, producing 3 stable door units (such as 3
Oak Stable Door). - Stable Horse Door: Placing 1 stable door alone into any crafting grid transforms it into 1 stable horse door (such as 1
Oak Stable Horse Door). These doors feature an independent Dutch top latch that allows horses to peer outside while keeping livestock penned.
Shoji Paper Screens and Whole Doors
Traditional residences, tea houses, and modern minimalist interiors use lightweight translucent paper paneling:
- Shoji Door: Crafted by filling the top and middle rows with 4
Paper in a two-by-two square over 2 wooden planks in the bottom row. This recipe yields 3 shoji door items (such as 3
Oak Shoji Door). - Shoji Whole Door: Crafted with 4
Paper filling the top and middle rows over 2 wood slabs in the bottom row, producing 3 shoji whole door units (such as 3
Oak Shoji Whole Door). These doors maximize paper pane coverage across the entire vertical height of the entrance.
Modern Glass and Bark Glass Doors
Glazed doors maximize natural interior lighting while offering unobstructed views of surrounding landscapes:
- Glass Door: Crafted in a two-by-three pattern with 1 wooden plank top-left, 1 wooden plank bottom-left, and 4 glass panes filling the remaining four slots (middle-left and the entire right column), producing 3 finished glass doors (such as 3
Oak Glass Door). - Bark Glass Door: Crafted with 2 wood logs and 4 glass blocks (1 log at the top-left, 1 log at the bottom-left, and 4 glass blocks filling the rest of the grid), yielding 3 bark glass door items (such as 3
Oak Bark Glass Door). - Sliding Glass Door: Crafted with 3 iron ingots in the left column and 3 glass panes in the middle column, producing 2
Sliding Glass Door fixtures.
