Overview
Cherry Fence Gate is one of the 12 variants of this shape in the game. What changes between them is the material, and with it the hardness, the drops, the durability and the recipe — so every figure on this page is this variant's own. Oak Fence Gate is the same shape in a different material.
Cherry Fence Gate is a functional block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Cherry Fence Gate has a crafting recipe, so it is renewable as long as you can source its ingredients. At a hardness of 2 it takes a moment to break but never slows a build down.
Broken correctly, it drops itself. Sixty-four fit in one inventory slot. The recipe calls for Stick and Cherry Planks.
It is not used in any crafting recipe.
About the cherry set
How long it takes to break
At a hardness of 2, Cherry Fence Gate takes 3 seconds to punch out and 0.35 seconds with a netherite-tier tool of the correct class.
An iron tool takes 0.5 seconds and a diamond one 0.4, so the jump that actually matters for this block is the one to iron.
Nothing here needs a minimum tier: whatever you swing, the block still drops, and the only difference is how long it takes.
The Efficiency formula is level² + 1 added to tool speed — at V that is about 3.5 times the unenchanted rate.
| Tool | No enchantment | Efficiency III | Efficiency V |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hand | 3 s | 3 s | 3 s |
| Wooden | 1.5 s | 0.25 s | 0.15 s |
| Stone | 0.75 s | 0.25 s | 0.1 s |
| Iron | 0.5 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Diamond | 0.4 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Netherite | 0.35 s | 0.2 s | 0.1 s |
| Golden | 0.25 s | 0.15 s | 0.1 s |
Properties
Cherry Fence Gate has a blast resistance of 3, so a nearby explosion will usually destroy it. It blocks light completely and emits no light of its own. A single slot takes 64, the usual full stack. Fire takes to it quickly — encouragement 5, burn 20 — which makes it a poor neighbour for lava or a lit campfire. The block is tagged for axes, and only that class gets the speed bonus; everything else mines at bare-hand rate. As furnace fuel it burns for 15 seconds — one and a half smelting operations.
