Better Walls
by Lemonnik
Better Walls fixes how fences, walls, panes, bars and nether fences connect to one another, and adds connections for wall signs.
What it does
Blocks of these types normally join only to their own kind, so a fence meeting a wall or a pane stops short. Better Walls changes those connection rules so that fences join walls, nether fences and panes or bars where they meet. The result is a continuous line in builds that mix these blocks, such as a courtyard or a castle perimeter.
The mod runs on the server alone, so players join without installing anything. Server owners install it on a Fabric or Quilt server; it is open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only, and source code and an issue tracker are linked from its public pages. Files target 1.20 – 26.2, with 3.5.3 for 26.2 as the latest file on both loaders, published 2026-05-14.
The mod is a single-purpose decoration and utility change, filed under Decoration, with game mechanics and utility as secondary categories.
Key features
Fence and wall joins
Fences connect to adjacent walls, so a wall can end cleanly at a fence line without a gap.
Nether fence joins
Nether fences link to fences and walls, matching the way the other fence types connect.
Pane and bar joins
Glass panes and iron bars join to fences of every type, including nether fences.
Wall sign connections
Wall signs attach to the connecting blocks that they are mounted on, so they sit flush with the wall.

How it compares
Handyman is a Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt mod for 1.21.5 – 26.2, server required with client optional, under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. Fence Gate Fix is a Fabric-only server-side mod for 1.16 – 26.3 under the MIT License, and it is open source. Air Gap Fix covers Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt for 1.20.2 – 26.3, server required with client optional, under All rights reserved. Better Walls differs from all three in its loader coverage and in being open source under the GNU Affero General Public License v3.0 only.
