DoorsReloaded
by Semarina
DoorsReloaded is a Fabric and Quilt mod that changes how doors, trapdoors and fence gates behave, and it can also run as a plugin on Paper-family servers.
What it does
Left-clicking a standard door, trapdoor or fence gate knocks on it, and a configurable knocking setting can synchronize double doors so both leaves open with one click. Automatic closing runs on configurable delays, and double doors sync natively with redstone signals, so redstone builds keep working cleanly.
Iron doors and iron trapdoors can be restricted with a permission-based access control, and each type is configured on its own. Players on a Paper-family server can run the mod as a plugin, and Folia is supported. On Fabric or Quilt it is installed as a mod, and the server side is where its features apply.
Files are published for Fabric and Quilt across 17 release versions, and the code is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later.
Key features
Knocking on doors
Left-clicking a door, trapdoor or fence gate produces a knock, and double doors can open together with a single click.
Automatic closing
Doors can close themselves after a delay, and the delay can be set separately for each door type in the config.
Access control for iron doors
Iron doors and iron trapdoors can be opened only by players who hold a given permission, configured individually.
Redstone-friendly double doors
Double doors respond to redstone signals as a pair, so circuits that drive them stay predictable.

Redstone builds
Double doors that sync with redstone signals can be driven by existing circuits without extra components.
Who it’s for: Server owners running Fabric, Quilt or a Paper-family server who want more control over doors, trapdoors and gates, and builders who run redstone contraptions on those doors.
