How Does This Calculator Work?
The calculator multiplies your post count by the price per post, does the same for panels, and adds the two totals together.
Once you know how many posts and panels your fence needs (see our Fence Calculator), this tool turns those counts into a total material cost estimate.
Example Calculation
Backyard Fence Example
16 posts at $15 each, 15 panels at $45 each.
(16×15)+(15×45) = $915 estimated materials.
Tips
This covers materials only — add labor, concrete for post footings, and gate hardware separately for a full project budget.
