A debate that may be as big as the toilet paper roll (over or under) in the real world. What kind of door person are you?


Do you place your door in the blocks?


Or do you place it outside of the blocks?

I place it inside, like the opposite of the first image.

Perhaps the most random poll in MCF History... XD

If anything, I regret not posting this on Monday to provide some relief from all the "Minecraft 2.0 is an April Fools Joke" threads. It probably would have been buried by them all, but hey.

In, but if you make it so the door looks like the second screenshot while it's open then zombies can't break it so that can be pretty helpful!

Depends on my mood, I sometimes will just use a trap door instead and live underground.

I use a fence gate door... just sayin....

I didn't know people put doors like in the 2nd picture. That looks very weird in my opinion, but I guess I have always put them inside like a normal person.

I like putting the door as in the first example, but use a pressure plate mechanism cuz I'm too lazy to open the door myself mehehe.

I put my doors on the inside cuz I'm drunk and lazy XD XD XD

I put my doors in as the first example. But sometimes I put my doors like the second example. And sometimes neither.

I put them on the inside, but normally a double door because they look good. I like having pressure plates, but I only put them on the inside so that the mobs cant come in.

Inside, never seen someone do it from the outside like that.

I place my doors like the 1st screenshot. Also, was there any reason to revive this old thread?

Sure, why not?

People do the 2nd option? What i've always seen is either the door is parallel to the exterior wall (option 1) or parallel to the interior wall (Epik's post).

Back when this sort of thing mattered (before, if the door was like option 1, you could hit enemies through the door and if you inverted it enemies could hit you through the door) I had it as option 1 since it was better for defending a home (back when mobs were a threat). Ever since that was fixed, I just kept doing that partially out of habit and partially because IMO it looks better.

I do it the way the door was the the first picture. The second one just looks weird, in my opinion.
