How to Use the Fence Calculator

Select your fence style (privacy, picket, post & rail, or panel), choose your measurement system, and enter your total fence length. Specify the fence height and post spacing (typically 6-8 feet or 1.8-2.4 meters). For picket or privacy fences, enter the board width and gap between pickets. For panel fences, enter the panel width. The calculator will automatically determine how many posts, rails, pickets, or panels you need.

Smart Planning Tips

  • Always order 10-15% extra materials for cuts, mistakes, and future repairs.
  • Check local building codes for height restrictions, setback requirements, and permit needs.
  • Set posts in concrete for stability—use quick-setting concrete mix for faster installation.
  • For slopes, step the fence or rack the panels to follow the terrain.
  • Treat or seal wood fences to protect against weather and extend their lifespan.
