Twin Doors
by kiwiKcz
Twin Doors makes paired doors open and close together when a player interacts with just one of them, so double doors work as a single unit.
What it does
Two doors placed as a pair respond as one when either is used, so players never have to open each leaf by hand. Builds keep a cleaner, more natural look, and the change works through a datapack without adding new blocks or items or altering the game's balance. Twin Doors is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, and for data packs, with files for 1.21 – 26.2. Only the server needs it, so players can join without installing anything. It is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.

This datapack improves door behavior by allowing paired doors to open and close simultaneously when interacting with just one of them. It makes double doors function as a single, cohesive unit, removing the need to click each door separately. The result is smoother interaction, cleaner builds, and a more natural feel…
