This Minecraft tutorial explains how to craft a barrier with screenshots and step-by-step instructions.

In Minecraft, a barrier is an invisible block that players can not go through. It is an item that you can not make with a crafting table or furnace and it is not available through the Creative Inventory menu. You can only add a barrier to your inventory using a game command.

Let’s explore how to add a barrier to your inventory.

Where to find a Barrier in Creative Mode

A barrier is not available in the Creative Inventory menu. You must use a game command such as the /give command to add this item to your inventory.

Item ID and Name

Minecraft Java Edition (PC/Mac)

In Minecraft, a barrier has the following Name, ID and DataValue:

Description

  • Data Value (or damage value) identifies the variation of the block if more than one type exists for the Minecraft ID.
