Usage

A trapdoor uses a thin horizontal panel.

An iron trapdoor is a thin barrier and a redstone-controlled passage. Unlike wooden trapdoors, it cannot be opened by a normal hand interaction; its shape can still be placed on the top or bottom half of a block and can be waterlogged.

Data: Usage
Shape	Trapdoor
Rendering	Isometric preview
Manual opening	Not available
Redstone control	Required
Placement	Top or bottom half
Waterlogged	Yes

Sounds

The block uses the metal sound family for breaking, placing, stepping, hitting, and falling. Opening and closing use the dedicated `block.iron_trapdoor.open` and `block.iron_trapdoor.close` events.

Data: Sounds
Sound family	Metal
Open	block.iron_trapdoor.open
Close	block.iron_trapdoor.close

Behavior

Adjacent redstone power changes the `powered` state and synchronizes the `open` state. A lever, powered block, or another redstone component can therefore make the trapdoor act as a reliable two-state barrier.

Data: Behavior
Stack size	64
Solid block	No
Transparent	Yes
Map color	metal
State count	16

Data values

The block identifier is `minecraft:iron_trapdoor`. Its state records facing, open, top/bottom half, powered, and waterlogged properties.
