Make sure your server is running a compatible version, like PaperMC or Spigot.
Access the “Files” section and upload the .jar file to the plugins folder.
Restart your server.

Time to Create Epic Doors! 🚪🔥
Big Doors Resource Pack
When you join your server, you might be prompted to download a resource pack. Don’t hesitate — go ahead and accept it! This will make your doors look and function spectacularly.
Creating a New Door 🚪
Use the command /bdm to open the Big Doors menu.

Start by selecting New Door.
Assign a name to your door using /namedoor [Name].
Select the outer corners with the tool provided by the plugin.
Open and close your door with /opendoor [Name] and /closedoor [Name].
⚠️ Common Issue ⚠️: I Can’t Select the Hinge 😬
If you’re having trouble selecting the hinge, make sure you’re choosing the outer corners in the correct order. Remember, the hinge determines which direction your door will open.
Available Door Types
Normal Door: Perfect for castles 🏰.
Sliding Door: Great for futuristic bases 🛸.
Drawbridge: Ideal for castle moats or canals 🌉.
Iron Gate: Adds a medieval touch or lets you create clever traps ⚔️.
GUI Menu and Essential Commands
Explore the /bdm menu to adjust and customize your doors. Want to set a timer for automatic closing or add another owner? Anything is possible!
Notable Commands:
/pausedoors: Pauses all doors.
/stopdoors: Stops doors in motion.
/unlockdoor [Name]: Unlocks a specific door.
⚠️ Common Issue ⚠️: My Commands Aren’t Working! 😤
If commands aren’t being recognized, make sure Big Doors is installed correctly by using /plugins. If it doesn’t appear, double-check the installation steps and ensure you’re running a compatible version.
