Hello! As I have mentioned before, I am still a bit new to redstone. I believe I have been doing well, and to prove it, I decided to use my knowledge to create my own door lock mechanism.
First, the scene:
Iron door. Welp, looks like we need a switch. Hm? Looks like there are two buttons on either side. Pressing one at a time does nothing, so let's try them both in quick succession.
Aha! That did the trick. Looks like this door requires two buttons to be activated at the same time. Now that it is open, let's go through!
.... Did someone hear a clicking noise?
****.
There's a button. Pressing it again does nothing.
Gravel?
Oh! A way out! It takes me to the surface.
-----
Right, so. How does it work? Well, here's the guts of it.
Not pictured: what the buttons are connected to at top right and left. But this picture is complicated. How about a simpler one?
Ah, much better. As you can see, the buttons are connected to an AND gate, where the output goes to an RS NOR latch. The output there is routed both to --
Oh, in English?
The AND gate works so that both torches must be activated to work, therefore, the output only works when both buttons are pressed. When activated, the memory latch triggers a one time change, which directs its output to the [here underground] wire that opens the door. The door stays open until the pressure plate (here placed on the far right for convenience's sake) is hit, which reverts the memory gate.
I am quite proud of it myself, but I apologize if this is nothing new. At least I made it an interesting read, I hope :Pig:.
Awe, come on, you guys suck. I did the story and everything.
I initially intended to have some way of opening it when you got to the other side, but I decided against it, doing the hidden exit instead. Still need to make the portal though.
me and my friend are making a system in our dungeon that requires you to flip several switches, right now four, to open a set of double doors. its pretty much like your system, minus the buttons.
Some basic gates. Kinda cool. Not advanced or too practical, though.
At least you used proper English.
Since you're just learning redstone, well, fantastic. You're getting there. Keep practicing and making more mechanisms, soon you'll have a wowing thread on your hands.

EDIT: In case you couldn't tell this is so far away from legit that you can't even see legit from here. Everything was done while flying around with infinite blocks.

I know it isn't super advanced, I just thought it was neat.
I know almost nothing of circuitry, but have taken programming classes, so I get the logic behind everything. Also, I am a fast learner, so that helps.
Place the buttons 5+ spaces apart and an override switch on the other side of the door.
This way, it requires 3 people to open the door. 2 to clickthe buttons and 1 to go thru and open the override allowing all access. Teamwork Ftw.

most people dont know how to wire an or gate >.<
i took a few engineering classes so i learned all this stuff already. was thrilled to learn i could make circuitry in MC.
i need to remake my pin combo lock vault doors.
