Mangrove Trapdoor
minecraft:mangrove_trapdoorA mangrove trapdoor is a thin, openable 1x1 block barrier crafted from mangrove planks, used to seal or reveal openings in floors, ceilings, and walls. Being a wooden trapdoor, it can be toggled directly by hand or opened and closed with a redstone signal. It can be waterlogged without losing function, and an open trapdoor placed above a ladder becomes climbable, making it useful for hidden passages and secret bases.
