* '''Mine doors cannot be placed on entrances with a slope of greater than 90.'''

* On [[Elevation]] and [[Defiance]] servers, there must be a minimum of 3 tiles between mine doors and only 4 mine doors in an 11x11 area. There is a check in a 5 tile radius around the door being placed.
* Plank [[QL]] affects the chance of success while constructing.
