This Charcoal composite fence gate has six joined horizontal pieces in a nominal 3.5 × 3.5 ft single leaf. A welded aluminum frame surrounds the closed infill, with galvanized steel posts supporting both sides. Assemble the board infill on site within the welded frame.
Charcoal's composite formula combines wood fibers and recycled plastic beneath a UV-protected wrap. The wrap helps resist fading from sun exposure, while the board faces also resist moisture, termites and decay. They need no routine painting, staining or sealing. Charcoal is the board color; Private Black is the metal finish.
The modern horizontal layout uses joined boards rather than spaced rows. Order the frame, post products and board packs separately. Six original boards supply the cut infill, recorded as a 1.5-pack material share. Browse the small and large composite gate options for other single-leaf sizes and layouts.

Limited warranty periods (residential / commercial use):
- Structural defects in Charcoal boards and covered metal gate parts: up to 25 / 10 years.
- Covered Charcoal board color changes: up to 25 / 10 years.

For metal coating coverage, use the nearest shoreline of an ocean, sea or saltwater bay. Salt or brackish tidal estuaries also count. Measure in a straight line from the installed part. A distance of 10 miles or less is coastal; farther away is non-coastal.
Qualifying defects under normal use must meet the written terms, including color and coating claim conditions. Metal coverage applies only to covered parts and eligible factory finishes.
Normal airborne coastal salt and salt spray alone do not exclude qualifying coating claims. The metal warranty excludes direct saltwater immersion or splash damage.
Remaining coverage transfers with property ownership. Products must stay at the original site. Keep records of the products and original purchase date. Transfer or replacement does not restart coverage.
For approved claims, Modern Yard refunds or replaces defective boards or parts. The original net purchase price determines the amount. The amount drops over time under the warranty schedule.
Metal coating compensation is 100% in the term’s first half, 50% in the second. Other claims follow separate schedules.
We do not pay for labor, installation, removal, reinstallation, freight or shipping. This changes if required by law or if Modern Yard expressly agrees in writing.
Email service@mymodernyard.com with purchase records, photos, product details and the issue. Expect a decision or next steps within 7–14 business days. Contact Modern Yard for full warranty terms.
Frequently asked questions
Does the 1.5-pack quantity mean I can buy half a pack?
It records six original boards at four per pack. For this gate alone, buy two whole packs, leaving two original boards unused. A larger project can combine compatible board requirements before rounding the total.
Do the boards require annual paint or stain?
Charcoal composite needs no regular painting, staining or sealing. Clean the board faces with mild soap, water and a soft brush or cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals and abrasive tools, and follow separate care guidance for the metal hardware.
What should I include in the gate quote?
Select Charcoal horizontal full privacy in the nominal 3.5 × 3.5 ft size. Show the gate opening and adjoining fence sections in your Modern Yard quote request. This lets the project order combine board stock and count shared posts once.
