Placement
The Big Portcullis can only be placed on full solid blocks and need as many blocks to the back, as to the side. Place this door like you would place a default door in Minecraft. More information to door placement: https://minecraft.fandom.com/wiki/Door#Placement
Opening and Redstone component
By default, the Big Portcullis can be opened hand or Redstone.
If the door is in the block state “Redstone only” or “both“, it can be opened by a Redstone signal. For example, by placing a Redstone block next to one of the door blocks and placing a Redstone torch beneath it.
The door can be opened by hand, if it is in the block state “hand only” or “both“. If a door is in the block state “nothing“, it cannot be opened. The settings can be changed with the ManyIdeas core item “Redstone key”.
