Description

Pale Oak Fence Gate is a wooden gate crafted from pale oak planks, the pale wood added with the Pale Garden biome in Minecraft 1.21.4. Craft two pale oak planks together with four sticks in a crafting table to get one fence gate. It opens and closes when you right-click it by hand or when it receives a redstone signal, making it work as both a doorway and a redstone-controlled barrier. When closed, the gate forms a 1.5-block-high barrier just like a fence and connects neatly into fence lines and walls. Unlike doors, mobs cannot open a fence gate, so it keeps animals penned while letting you pass through. The block is flammable, so keep it away from lava and fire. It works in both Java Edition 1.21.4 and Bedrock Edition.

How to craft and use a Pale Oak Fence Gate in Minecraft

  1. 1

    Get pale oak planks

    Chop a pale oak tree in the Pale Garden, turn the logs into pale oak planks, and craft four sticks.

  2. 2

    Craft the gate

    Place a stick on each side of two pale oak planks in the middle and bottom rows to make one fence gate.

  3. 3

    Fit it into a fence

    Place the gate inline with your fences so it connects on both sides and closes off the gap as a doorway.

  4. 4

    Open and close it

    Right-click the gate to open or close it by hand whenever you walk through your pen or wall.

  5. 5

    Wire it to redstone

    Power the gate with a lever, button, or pressure plate so it opens automatically on a redstone signal.

Mobs can't open it

Unlike wooden doors, fence gates cannot be opened by mobs, so animals stay penned even when zombies are nearby.
