Chain Link Fence Calculator
This calculator helps you determine the number of posts required and the total length of the mesh needed for your chain link fence project.
Instructions:
- Enter the total length of the fence in feet.
- Specify the height of the fence in feet.
- Input the spacing between fence posts in feet.
- Enter the number of gates you plan to install.
- Specify the width of each gate in feet.
- Click the Calculate button to see the results.
How it Calculates:
- The total number of posts is calculated by dividing the total length by the spacing + 1 for the end post.
- It calculates the total space taken by gates and subtracts it from the total fence length to find the actual fence mesh length.
Limitations:
- Ensure the total width of gates does not exceed the fence length.
- The calculator assumes flat terrain and does not account for elevation changes.
