by nachtsilberhase

Customfence adds fence, fence gate and wall variants to the decoration blocks, with a config option to turn the feature off.

What it does

New fence, fence gate and wall types join the set of vanilla decoration blocks, and the wooden fence is bicolored because it is built from two kinds of wood, which adds variety to builds. Metal fences oxidize over time, a change the author describes as desired. Walls are designed with castle battlements and thinner profiles suited to buildings. The feature can be disabled through the config file, and the mod runs on client and server, so both sides need it. It is released under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only and is open source, with files for 1.20 – 26.3.

Builds target Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with the latest file for 26.3 published on 2026-09-21. The source code and issue tracker are public.

Key features

  1. Fence and wall types

    New fence, fence gate and wall blocks extend the decoration options beyond vanilla.

  2. Bicolored wooden fence

    The wooden fence combines two types of wood in one block for a varied look.

  3. Oxidizing metal fences

    Metal fences change color as they oxidize over time, a behavior the author kept on purpose.
