BEHIND THE NUMBERS

Clear math. Better decisions.

Panels = ceiling(run ÷ installed panel width). Posts = panels + 1 for one open straight run.

A worked example

An 80 ft straight run with 8 ft installed modules needs 10 panels and 11 posts.

Before you order

  • Count fence panels and posts for one straight run and estimate their combined cost.
  • The last panel may require cutting. Gates, corners, shared posts, post concrete, hardware, and labor are excluded.

Good questions.

Where do the prices come from?

You enter actual supplier prices. A blank price is unknown; enter zero only when that item is free or deliberately excluded. Taxes and installation are excluded unless a field explicitly includes them.

Can I use metric measurements?

Yes. The unit selector converts dimensions and unit prices. Results use whole packages where applicable. Starting dimensions are examples; confirm product specifications before ordering.
