Calculates the materials needed to build a fence, including posts, rails, and pickets, based on the fence's length and height. It also considers the spacing between posts and pickets.
Start with your values, or try a preset.
Enter Fence Length (feet), Fence Height (feet), Post Spacing (feet), Picket Width (inches), Picket Spacing (inches), and Number of Rails in the units shown.
Read Number of Pickets, Total Rail Length (feet), Number of Posts, and Total Picket Material (square feet) in the results panel. Results update as you change the inputs.
Choose a preset to load an example, then adjust the values for your situation.
