Crafting a Wooden Door
Make a wooden door by using 6 wooden planks. Create wooden planks by placing wood in your crafting menu and crafting the planks. If you do not have a crafting bench, use 4 planks, placed in a square, to create a crafting bench.
Place 6 wooden planks, 3 high and 2 wide, in your crafting menu. This will create one wooden door. Note that you can change the appearance of the wooden door based on which wood you use. You could therefore have an oak door, spruce door, birch door, or a jungle wood door. Also note that any door types other than oak and iron only exist from 1.8 and onwards.
Crafting an Iron Door
Make an iron door by using 6 iron ingots. To get iron ingots, you have two options: Crafting: craft iron ingot from a single block of iron. Smelting: smelt iron ingot from a block of iron ore.
Arrange the iron ingots in the same shape as the wooden planks, filling two vertical columns. You now have an iron door.
Placing the Door and Other Specs
Place the door on the side of the block you want it to be on. If you're standing on the outside of a block, a placed door will end up on — you guessed it — the outside of the wall. If you're standing on the inside of the block, a placed door will end up on the inside of the wall.
Place two doors side by side to create double doors. Two adjacent doors will automatically orientate to become double doors.
Use pressure plates to open doors automatically. A pressure plate placed on either side of the door will automatically open and close the door as you pass through it. If you're worried about mobs, however, only place the pressure plate on the inside of the door to keep mobs out. Wooden doors can also open and shut easily by right-clicking the door.
Know that iron doors will not open by right-clicking. It is impossible to open an iron door without a mechanism nearby. Use this knowledge to keep mobs and other griefers out of your private space. Make a redstone pattern to your door and use a lever to open it. Place a pressure plate on the inside hinge of your iron door to open. Before the village and pillage update of Minecraft, villagers would breed independently based on the number of doors in the village. The villagers would breed if the population happened to be 35% or less than the number of valid doors. Villager breeding also depended on the willingness of the villagers. A player could manipulate it by giving specific amounts of food to the villagers.
