Fence Quote Calculator
When to Use
- - Reese asks to "quote a fence job" or "run a takeoff"
- Any mention of calculating fence materials, posts, pickets, concrete, or gates
- Pricing or estimating a fence project
Material Specifications
Post Types & Spacing
- - Line posts, corner posts, end posts: 4x4 pressure treated
- Gate posts: 6x6 pressure treated (1 per single gate opening, 2 per double gate opening)
- Post spacing: 8 feet on center
Post Count Formula
- 1. Calculate total line sections:
total_linear_feet / 8 (round up) - End posts = 2 per fence run (start and end of each continuous run)
- Corner posts = 1 per corner
- Line posts = totalsections - 1 - cornerposts (per run)
- Gate posts: count based on gate config (see gates below)
Rails
- - 3x 2x4x8 rails per 8-foot section
- 3x 2x4x8 per gate leaf (for gate framing)
Pickets (Wood Fence)
- - Type: 1x6x6 dog ear pressure treated
- Coverage: 5.5 inches per picket (actual board width, no gap/waste factor)
- Per 8-foot section:
96 inches / 5.5 inches = 17.45 -> 18 pickets per section (round up) - Total pickets: sections x 18
Concrete
- - 4x4 posts: 60 lbs per post
- 6x6 posts: 80 lbs per post
- Aluminum posts: 60 lbs per post
- Vinyl posts: 80 lbs per post
- Bag size: 80 lb bags ONLY (Home Depot, 42 bags per pallet)
- Bags per 4x4:
60/80 = 0.75 -> round up to 1 bag per 4x4 post - Bags per 6x6:
80/80 = 1 bag per 6x6 post
Gates
- - Standard single gate: 5 feet wide opening (4 feet if specifically requested)
- Standard double gate: 10 feet wide opening (8 feet if specifically requested)
- Hardware per gate opening: 1 latch + 1 handle
- Hinges: 3 per gate leaf (single gate = 3 hinges, double gate = 6 hinges)
- Drop rod: 1 per double gate
Fence Types Supported
- 1. Wood (PT pine, dog ear pickets)
- Tan Vinyl
- White Vinyl
- 5ft Aluminum
- 4ft Aluminum

Important Notes
- - Always round up on pickets and posts. Short materials means a return trip.
- If Reese gives you a rough sketch or describes corners/gates, confirm the layout before running numbers.
- For vinyl and aluminum, post spacing and section widths may differ from wood. Ask Reese to confirm if specs differ from the 8' OC standard.
- Do NOT estimate labor costs in this skill. That's separate pricing.
围栏报价计算器
使用场景
- - 当Reese要求报价围栏工程或进行材料估算时
- 任何涉及计算围栏材料、立柱、栅栏板、混凝土或大门的情况
- 围栏项目的定价或预算估算
材料规格
立柱类型与间距
- - 中间立柱、角柱、端柱:4x4加压处理木材
- 大门立柱:6x6加压处理木材(单扇大门每处1根,双扇大门每处2根)
- 立柱间距:中心间距8英尺
立柱数量计算公式
- 1. 计算总直线段数:总长度英尺数 / 8(向上取整)
- 端柱数量 = 每段围栏2根(每段连续围栏的起点和终点)
- 角柱数量 = 每个转角1根
- 中间立柱数量 = 总段数 - 1 - 角柱数量(每段围栏)
- 大门立柱:根据大门配置计算(见下方大门部分)
横梁
- - 每8英尺段需3根2x4x8横梁
- 每扇大门门扇需3根2x4x8横梁(用于大门框架)
栅栏板(木围栏)
- - 类型:1x6x6狗耳形加压处理木材
- 覆盖宽度:每块栅栏板5.5英寸(实际板宽,无间隙/损耗系数)
- 每8英尺段:96英寸 / 5.5英寸 = 17.45 -> 每段18块栅栏板(向上取整)
- 栅栏板总数:段数 x 18
混凝土
- - 4x4立柱:每根60磅
- 6x6立柱:每根80磅
- 铝制立柱:每根60磅
- 乙烯基立柱:每根80磅
- 袋装规格:仅限80磅袋装(家得宝,每托盘42袋)
- 每根4x4立柱所需袋数:60/80 = 0.75 -> 向上取整为每根4x4立柱1袋
- 每根6x6立柱所需袋数:80/80 = 每根6x6立柱1袋
大门
- - 标准单扇大门:5英尺宽开口(如有特殊要求可为4英尺)
- 标准双扇大门:10英尺宽开口(如有特殊要求可为8英尺)
- 每处大门开口五金件:1个门闩 + 1个把手
- 合页:每扇门扇3个(单扇大门=3个合页,双扇大门=6个合页)
- 插销:每扇双扇大门1个
支持的围栏类型
- 1. 木围栏(加压处理松木,狗耳形栅栏板)
- 棕褐色乙烯基围栏
- 白色乙烯基围栏
- 5英尺铝制围栏
- 4英尺铝制围栏

重要说明
- - 栅栏板和立柱数量始终向上取整。材料短缺意味着需要返工。
- 如果Reese提供粗略草图或描述转角/大门位置,请在计算前确认布局。
- 对于乙烯基和铝制围栏,立柱间距和段宽可能与木围栏不同。请向Reese确认规格是否与8英尺中心间距标准不同。
- 本技能不估算人工成本。人工费用单独定价。
