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

In Minecraft, birch doors are one of the many mechanisms that you can make. The crafting process will create 3 sets of birch doors at a time.

Let’s explore how to make a birch door.

Where to find a Birch Door in Creative Mode

Here is where you can find a birch door in the Creative Inventory menu:

Platform Version(s) Creative Menu Location
Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.8 – 1.19
Java Edition (PC/Mac) 1.19.3 – 1.20
  • Platform is the platform that applies.

How to craft a Birch Door in Survival Mode

1. Open the Crafting Menu

First, open your crafting table so that you have the 3×3 crafting grid that looks like this:

2. Add Items to make a Birch Door

In the crafting menu, you should see a crafting area that is made up of a 3×3 crafting grid. To make a birch door, place 6 birch planks in the 3×3 crafting grid.

When making a birch door, it is important that the birch planks are placed in the exact pattern as the image below. There should be 2 birch planks in the first row with the last box empty, 2 birch planks in the second row with the last box empty, and 2 birch planks in the third row with the last box empty. This is the Minecraft crafting recipe for a birch door.

Now that you have filled the crafting area with the correct pattern, the birch doors will appear in the box to the right.

3. Move the Birch Door to Inventory

Once you have crafted birch doors, you need to move the new items to your inventory.

Congratulations, you have made a birch door in Minecraft!
