What it does

The mod lets players knock on wooden doors and trapdoors instead of opening them. Each door material gives its own sound, and doors that open only with redstone power or by hand from metal are treated separately. Knock On Wood runs on Fabric and Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1, where both the server and every player need it.

Key features

  1. Knocking on doors

    Players can knock on a door, and the door answers with a sound instead of swinging open.

  2. Material-based sounds

    The knock sound depends on the material the door is made of, so wood and metal doors differ.

  3. Trapdoor support

    Punching a trapdoor also plays the knocking sound, so trapdoors are covered alongside doors.
