Fencing Calculators
Estimate posts, rails and pickets for wood fences, including gate openings and custom post spacing.
About these calculators
A fence estimate starts with the total run length and the post spacing. Every gate, corner and change of direction adds posts, so sketch the fence line before you measure.
Local rules often control fence height, setback and materials, and boundary fences may need a neighbour's agreement. Check with your local planning or building authority before buying materials.
