How to Use the Fencing Cost Calculator

Step 1: Input the Fence Length

Start by entering the fence length in feet. Ensure the value is between the minimum of 1 foot and the maximum of 10,000 feet. You can specify values with up to one decimal place if needed, such as 100.5.

Step 2: Specify the Fence Height

Next, enter the fence height in feet. Valid heights are between 3 feet and 12 feet. You can adjust the height in increments of 0.5 feet, like 6.5.

Step 3: Choose the Fence Material

Select your preferred fence material from the dropdown options. The options available are:

  • Wood Privacy Fence
  • Vinyl Fence
  • Chain Link Fence
  • Aluminum/Steel Fence

  • Flat/Level Ground
  • Slightly Sloped
  • Heavily Sloped

Review the Calculated Costs

Once all inputs are entered, the calculator will automatically compute and display the following costs:

  • Material Cost: Calculated based on your fence’s length, height, and material chosen.
  • Gate Cost: Determined by the number and type of gates selected.
  • Labor Cost: Determined by the fence length and terrain type.
  • Total Project Cost: The sum of material, gate, and labor costs.
  • Cost Per Linear Foot: The total project cost divided by the fence length.
