In this guide I will explain how to create various doors and arches in Tiny Glade (v1.8.1).
How to Create Doors, Arches and Water Grates
Creating doors, arches and water grates for version 1.8.1.
Doors, Arches, and Grates (Path Tool)
Doors
You can create path doors by making a path through a structure. The width of the door depends on how wide you make your path. I’ve marked all my examples where I made the paths.
Note: All of these “doors” can be walked through when using the walking first-person camera.

Arches / Archways
Making the path wider and/or on a corner will create archways. You can erase small sections in the middle to split the arch where you like.

Archways can also be added to fences and walls. They will automatically create pillars when the path gets too wide.


Water Grates
Creating a path through a structure in water will form iron bars, resembling a water grate.

Changing the Path Door Height
You can change the height of path doors by hovering over the top of the door and dragging up or down. This also works for arches and water grates.

Doors (Window Tool)
You can add window “doors” at the bottom of buildings, including those in water or suspended. Drag the windows close enough to the bottom, and they will turn into doors.
You can place up to two additional windows next to these doors to create wider doors, provided there is enough space. “Slit” windows cannot be used to add doors (yet).
Note: You cannot walk through these doors with the first-person walking camera.

Trap Doors
You can add trap doors by dragging a window onto a flat roof. The fancy version adds some flair to the iron.

Hidden Feature
Door (and window) decorations can be “rerolled” by left-clicking them. Some, like the clothing decorations, have interactions when split apart (creating a clothesline).
Bonus: Pillars
Pillars can be created under structures by dragging the bottom of the height slider up off the ground. (You can show the slider and other controls by right-clicking the structure.)
