Posts Needed vs Total Fence Length

Fence Calculation

Posts = (Total Length / Post Spacing) + 1

Rails = Sections × Rails per Section (2 for fences ≤6ft, 3 for taller)

Pickets = Total Length (in) / Picket Width

Add 10% for waste.

Example Calculation

100 ft fence, 6 ft tall, 8 ft spacing, 3.5 in pickets.

  1. 01Sections = ceil(100/8) = 13
  2. 02Posts = 13 + 1 = 14
  3. 03Rails = 13 × 2 = 26
  4. 04Pickets = ceil(1200 / 3.5) = 343
