Overview
Dark Oak 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.
Dark Oak Fence Gate is a functional block in Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.4. Dark Oak 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 Dark Oak Planks.
It is not used in any crafting recipe.
About the dark oak set
How long it takes to break
At a hardness of 2, Dark Oak Fence Gate takes 3 seconds to punch out and 0.35 seconds with a netherite-tier tool of the correct class.
You are looking at 0.5 seconds on iron and 0.4 on diamond — the iron step is where the time actually falls.
There is no tier requirement to worry about. Any tool, or none, returns the drop; the numbers below just say how fast.
Each Efficiency level adds level² + 1 to the tool's speed, so a level V tool clears this about 3.5 times faster than an unenchanted one.
| 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
With 3 blast resistance Dark Oak Fence Gate usually goes down to a nearby explosion. It is fully opaque and produces no light. 64 fit in a slot — a full stack. Flammable, at encouragement 5 and burn 20: build with it away from lava, and do not use it as a wall you care about. An axe is the fastest choice here. A tool of the wrong class is no better than your fist — the speed bonus is tied to the block's own tool tag. As furnace fuel it burns for 15 seconds — one and a half smelting operations.
