How to Craft Oak Trapdoor in Minecraft

Oak Trapdoor in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own item texture. Floor hatches.

You need 6 Oak Planks, plus a Crafting Table to assemble them on. The grid takes six Oak Planks in a solid 2x3 block. That comes out as 2 Oak Trapdoors. It doubles as fuel at 300 ticks apiece, so 43 Oak Trapdoors will smelt 64 items.

Oak Trapdoor Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Oak Trapdoor is minecraft:oak_trapdoor. In commands the namespace may be left off, so oak_trapdoor works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.

Give yourself one
/give @p oak_trapdoor
Give a full stack of 64
/give @p oak_trapdoor 64
Give it to a named player
/give Steve oak_trapdoor 1

Cheats have to be on for Oak Trapdoor to appear this way, and the same command works on Bedrock Edition, where the name is written the same.

Overview

Oak Trapdoors act as horizontal doors. They open and close with right-click or redstone power. Oak Trapdoor uses a shaped recipe: the ingredients only work in the pattern shown.

How far back this one goes cannot be read out of the files: Minecraft 1.13 renamed hundreds of items and every recipe file with them, and the oak trapdoor was one of them, so the trail stops there.

The materials come together from a few sources: you will be working with oak planks (craft from oak logs).

Per Stack

Work a stack down, 64 oak planks, and you land on 20 oak trapdoors. That leaves 4 oak planks with no partner.
