How this calculator works
Set the length of one straight run, target post spacing, panel size, and any gate openings. Prices are optional hypothetical inputs.
Formula
Panels = round up((run − total gate openings) ÷ panel width). Posts are a simplified spacing allowance.
Before you use the result
Calculator outputs are estimates based on the numbers you provide. Replace the examples with measurements, costs, rates, or product information appropriate to your situation.
This is a simplified planning estimate: corners, gates, terrain, code, and engineering requirements need separate calculation.
