Ok. So background info: I'm new to the whole redstone experience even though I have been playing since beta 1.2. I'm try to make a "secret door" such as the one here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dCDtMyjmZ10&feature=related. I am using pressure plate instead so maybe that has an effect on it, but anyways. I want the doors to be "activated" or in other words the door be shut while I am not on the pressure plate. Is there any way to do this?! If you have any idea of what your doing, please comment or pm me. If you know you can fix the problem, I will send you a copy of my world.

Thanks everyone :)

Your best option to do here is to hook up the presure plates to a delayed timer. Which, for this, would just be two or three diodes. It would take a few seconds to open, and take a few seconds to close, but it will do the job as you described.

Concerning the door, this video is the same one I use for all my hidden piston doors! The video does a good job showing you how to build it.

However, if I were you, I would hook up a hidden redstone torch trigger system, like the one I have here. This would make the door WORLDS more secret, as there would be no button seen. Although it is hooked up to a wall, you can hook it up to the door you have in the video.

I'm pretty sure I didn't do a grand job explaining all this, so if you have any questions, be sure to ask!
