Compare composite single gates by their board pattern and post layout. This Charcoal composite privacy gate uses six vertical boards and a separate LINE crossbeam for a 7 ft fence connection. The gate remains nominally 3.5 ft wide by 6 ft high; the overhead member does not increase the door leaf height.
Six Charcoal boards fit a powder-coated aluminum frame. Separate LINE stock supplies one cut crossbeam, held by the specified connectors between two In-Ground steel posts. Use the vertical composite fencing guide to compare the surrounding fence layout. Choose this complete configuration when planning that taller connection, and keep its post spacing and component list separate from the ordinary gate.

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.
- Coastal metal coating defects: up to 5 / 3 years.
- Non-coastal metal coating defects: up to 15 / 10 years.
- Covered metal finish fading, all locations: up to 8 / 5 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. The combination lock is outside the periods listed above. Contact Modern Yard for the applicable separate warranty terms.
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 crossbeam make this a 7 ft gate?
No. The leaf stays nominally 6 ft high. This separate configuration connects with a 7 ft fence and uses different post and overhead details from the ordinary gate.
How much Charcoal board stock does this version use?
The leaf has six installed boards. The source assigns 1.5 four-board packs to the gate; a complete order must account for whole sales packs and usable stock.
Are the two posts also included in the board count?
No. The gate source lists two 114-inch steel posts separately from the six boards. Shared posts are counted against the actual project connections.
