Garden Fence Material Calculator
Estimate the posts and fencing you need to keep deer and rabbits out of the garden before a trip to the store. Enter the length and width of a rectangular garden in feet to get the perimeter, or type in a custom perimeter directly, then set your post spacing and how many gates to leave. The calculator counts the line posts plus corner posts, adds gate openings, and reports the running feet of fence fabric or wire to buy. Post spacing of six to eight feet is common for garden mesh, with closer spacing for taller or heavier fencing. Buying a little extra wire for corners and overlap is wise. Change the garden size or spacing to compare materials instantly. Everything is calculated in your browser with no signup.

Frequently asked questions
How does it count fence posts?
It divides the garden perimeter by your post spacing and adds posts for corners and ends, so closer spacing yields more posts around the run.
How is total fencing length found?
It uses the perimeter of your garden as the fencing length, minus any gate widths, so you know how much fence material to buy.
Does it account for gates?
Yes, you can set the number of gates, and the tool subtracts their span from the fencing length and includes them in the material list.
