Six iron ingots

Mine iron ore with a stone pickaxe and smelt six ingots in a furnace. A wooden door uses the same two-column shape with planks; this one wants iron.

Two columns of three

Open the Crafting Table. Put iron ingots in the left and middle columns, all six squares. Leave the right column empty. Three iron doors appear on the right; take them. This 3-high shape needs the 3×3 table.

Redstone opens it

Place it on a block. A button, a lever, or a pressure plate opens it; you cannot click the door by hand. Zombies do not break iron doors. A pickaxe breaks the door and it drops. Iron bars cover a window next to it.
