Going all the way round a 75×100 ft yard takes 350 ft of fence before you take off the gate.

How the length is worked out

Linear feet = the sum of every side − gate openings. Posts are counted side by side at your spacing.

Example: sides of 75, 100, 75, 100 ft add up to 350.0 ft; take off 4 ft of gates and you need 346.0 ft of fence.

Common questions

How do I measure for a fence?

Measure each straight side along the line where the posts will go, in feet or metres. Add the sides and subtract gate openings.

Should I add extra?

Add a little for slopes and for cuts, but the linear length is what contractors quote on.
