Description

A Cherry Trapdoor is a wooden hatch that opens and closes on a hinge and it is ideal for floors balconies and hidden access points that need a tidy appearance. Trapdoors are versatile because they can be used as doors to small spaces as decorative vents and as safe drop points in towers and basements. The Cherry Trapdoor has the warm wood finish of the cherry family and fits neatly with Cherry Planks Cherry Stairs and Cherry Slabs to keep a consistent style. Players often use trapdoors to create secret entrances to workshop areas or to build compact attic ladders that do not need visible stairs. When placed horizontally a trapdoor acts as a floor panel and when placed vertically it becomes a door like surface that swings open and closed on a right click or when powered by redstone. Because trapdoors are compact they are a favourite for builders who want functionality without taking visual space and they are easy to craft and to install.

What is Cherry Trapdoor?
