Double doors in Minecraft have always been a minor annoyance — click one side and the other stays shut, breaking the illusion of a proper entrance. Connected Doors Mod by fake_domi fixes this by making both sides of a double door open and close together, whether you right-click or use redstone. With over 368,000 downloads and active development since 2022, it's become a go-to quality-of-life mod for builders and redstone engineers who want their doors to simply work the way they should.
Key Features
- Synchronized double doors — Right-click either side and both doors swing open or shut simultaneously, no extra wiring needed.
- Redstone compatibility — Powering one side with redstone triggers both doors, keeping your contraptions clean and simple.
- Fence gate support — Connected behavior extends to fence gates, so your garden entrances and farm pens work just as smoothly.
- Flexible installation — Works server-side only (all players benefit), client-side only (you see synced doors locally), or both for the best experience.
- Configurable range and blacklists — Tweak the connection range, disable fence gate syncing, or blacklist specific servers where you don't want the feature active.

FAQ
Does Connected Doors Mod work if only the server has it installed?
Yes, the mod functions server-side only — all players will get synchronized double doors. However, clients without the mod installed may not see both doors animate at the exact same time visually.
Does this mod work with fence gates?
Yes, fence gates are supported. You can also disable this feature or adjust the connection range through the mod's config file if you prefer doors only.
Can I disable Connected Doors on specific servers?
Yes, the mod includes a server blacklist in its config. Add the server name or address to the blacklist and the client-side features will be turned off for that server.
