Passage behind the painting: how to craft? How does it look?
Last update: 12 July 2020
On this page of our Minecraft guide, you will learn how to make a passage hidden behind a painting.
Creating a passage
If you are playing with the other players, you may feel the need for privacy. For that purpose, you can use a hidden room with the invisible door behind a painting. For that, craft a door at the level with a wall. Then put a painting on the wall which will assume the size sufficient to cover the door (the size and the motif of the painting are generated at random, if you have not achieved the size that you need, the first time you try, then you can take the painting off the wall and place it again).
Appearance
Only after you cross the passage, will you notice that the door is concealed. It can be opened at any side, or on both sides. Sometimes, you will experience some problems opening the door at the side of the painting, using the action key/button, which is why it is a better idea to use a switch hidden elsewhere, with the signal traveling along redstone circuit under the floor.
