Doors On Stairs!
Doors On Stairs! extends door-style opening to stairs, trapdoors, fence gates and other blocks, and it works with most modded doors.
What it does
Installed on a NeoForge server, the mod makes doors, stairs, trapdoors and fence gates behave as openable blocks, and it extends the same behavior to pressure plates, torches, lanterns, campfires and other blocks, including air. Its author describes it as a single mixin that stays compatible with most modded doors. The author states it was made in about half an hour after being disappointed by Mojang adding similar behavior to vanilla, and asks that the file not be reuploaded without permission.
The mod is a server-side only addition for NeoForge, so players join without installing anything. The only published build is 1.0.0 for 1.21.1, dated 2026-07-13, released under All rights reserved and not open source. It is listed in the Cursed category with Decoration, Utility and Game mechanics as secondary categories, and it has no required dependencies.
Key features
Openable stairs and trapdoors
Stairs and trapdoors can be opened and closed by right-clicking, the same way doors are handled.
Fence gates and pressure plates
Fence gates and pressure plates are included in the block set the mod extends.
Lights and campfires
Torches, lanterns and campfires are among the non-door blocks the mod can make interactive.
Compatibility with modded doors
A single mixin is used so the behavior applies to most modded door blocks without a separate patch for each.
