Fence Cost Estimator

Estimate total fence installation cost including materials, labor, and gates.

Total linear feet of fencing.

Panels, posts, pickets, hardware per linear foot.

Installation labor per linear foot.

Gates add a flat cost each, separate from linear footage.

Hardware plus labor for each gate.

Fence pricing is usually quoted per linear foot for material and labor, with gates priced separately as flat items since they need hinges, latches, and extra framing regardless of the overall fence length. This calculator keeps those two cost drivers separate so you can see how much of your total comes from the run itself versus the gates.
