Your character needs a way out! In Part 13 of the Unreal Engine 5 Tutorial Series, we focus on adding a doorway to our store room. This lesson covers more than just placing a mesh—we dive into vital technical skills like fixing collision issues during import and using trim pieces to add architectural detail.
I’ll also show you one of my favorite "quality of life" shortcuts: the End Key trick, which instantly snaps your objects to the floor, saving you tons of time in the viewport.

- Modular Placement: Fitting the doorframe into our existing modular wall setup.
