Description
The birch door is a full sized wooden door that uses birch wood to give a light bright look to entrances. It fits into a two block high gap and swings open to allow players and mobs through when activated. Birch doors are common in builds that use pale wood because they match birch planks and fences and provide a clean modern appearance. The door can be opened by hand or by redstone devices such as buttons and pressure plates which makes it easy to automate entry points. Because it is a wooden item it can burn if placed near fire but it is quick to replace and craft. Birch doors work well in village houses and modern cabins and they are a popular choice when players want a light interior with a natural feeling. Use birch doors to create neat entrances and combine them with frames and windows for a tidy finished look.
