What does the fence panel calculator include?
It calculates the number of fence panels, posts, and gravel boards based on your fence length and chosen panel width/height. You’ll also see an estimated cost and can add everything to your basket.
Can I use it for Lap, Closeboard, Omega, and Trellis panels?
Yes. Select your preferred style in the calculator. The logic works with common UK sizes (e.g., 6×6, 5×6), and will round to whole panels and posts.
How accurate are the quantities?
They’re accurate for straight runs on level ground. We round to whole panels, and include end posts. For concrete end posts or corners, just add them to your basket separately and remove an intermediate post!
Does it support 6″ and 12″ gravel boards?
Absolutely. Choose 6″ or 12″ and the calculator updates quantities and total height accordingly. 12″ Gravelboards are particularly necessary if the soil on one side of the fence is higher than the other.
Who manufactures your concrete posts and gravel boards?
We stock FP McCann. All our concrete products are their Lightweight variant — easier to handle on site and kinder on installers, while maintaining excellent performance for customers.
