How to Craft Dark Oak Fence Gate in Minecraft

Dark Oak Fence Gate in Minecraft, drawn from the game's own block model. Gate for fence enclosures. Minecraft has used the name Dark Oak Fence Gate since 1.8.

A Dark Oak Fence Gate costs you 4 Sticks and 2 Dark Oak Planks, put together at a Crafting Table. In the grid that is four Sticks in the left and right columns and two Dark Oak Planks filling the middle column. The grid returns 1 Dark Oak Fence Gate. Burn it instead and one gives 300 ticks, which means 43 Dark Oak Fence Gates take a stack of 64 all the way through a furnace.

Dark Oak Fence Gate Item ID and Give Command

The item ID for Dark Oak Fence Gate is minecraft:dark_oak_fence_gate. In commands the namespace may be left off, so dark_oak_fence_gate works too. Checked against Minecraft Java 26.2.
