Note that doors block the movement of [[wagon]]s, even in a 3 tile wide corridor; if a Dwarven or Human [[caravan]] arrives and your [[trade depot]] is behind doors one of two things will happen to any wagons: 1) If the doors are unlinked, the wagons will proceed to the doors and then stop.{{verify}} If the doors are then deconstructed, the wagons will continue with only time lost.{{verify}} 2) If the doors are linked (to a lever or pressure plate), even in the "open" state, wagons will not sense any [[path]] and will not enter the map (with the usual [[announcement]] about "bypassing your inaccessible site"), but any pack animals and caravan guards attached to them will proceed as normal. | Note that doors block the movement of [[wagon]]s, even in a 3 tile wide corridor; if a Dwarven or Human [[caravan]] arrives and your [[trade depot]] is behind doors one of two things will happen to any wagons: 1) If the doors are unlinked, the wagons will proceed to the doors and then stop.{{verify}} If the doors are then deconstructed, the wagons will continue with only time lost.{{verify}} 2) If the doors are linked (to a lever or pressure plate), even in the "open" state, wagons will not sense any [[path]] and will not enter the map (with the usual [[announcement]] about "bypassing your inaccessible site"), but any pack animals and caravan guards attached to them will proceed as normal. | ||

A door built will not create a floor above it the way a wall will. If construction is to be done above a door, walls, fortifications and floors can be built on top of doors. Doors cannot be built on top of other doors – there must be a floor. Stairs and ramps, of course, cannot be built on top of doors either. | A door built will not create a floor above it the way a wall will.
