A car door is an item as part of a vehicle, and can be found in three different types, front, rear and double rear. It is used to protect the occupants of the vehicle from zombie attacks.

Usage

Installing/Uninstalling

A door can be installed or uninstalled from a vehicle using a wrench so long as the recipe has been learned for that vehicle type. The window for the door must be uninstalled (or smashed) before removing the door. Each level of mechanics will decrease the chance of causing damage and increase the chance of success, with level 4 resulting in no damage and 100% chance of success.

It is not possible to mix types of vehicle parts. For example, a standard class door cannot be fitted onto a sport vehicle.

Repairing

A door can only be repaired once removed from the vehicle. Once removed, it can be repaired using Metal Sheets and a Propane Torch. This requires level 3 in the Metalworking skill and level 2 in the Mechanics skill. It may be a better option to find an entirely different door to replace a damaged one if the door has been severely damaged.

Zombie defense

Protects the players inside the vehicle against attacks from zombies, so long as the door is closed and a window is also fitted and closed. Sometimes the door can be left open when driving off quickly. This can be incredibly dangerous, as vehicles do not have animations showing that the doors are still open. To make sure the door closes, avoid driving until you hear the door close.

Locking

Having a door fitted allows it to be locked using the car key, preventing other players in a multiplayer game from entering the vehicle and taking parts or even hot-wiring it. However, players can still smash the window and gain access, so it is best to park vehicles inside a secure safehouse if possible.
