Fence Layout Planner

Draw connected fence runs from lengths and directions. Keep gate positions, grade changes and shared posts on one measurable plan.

Use the unit on each label. You can also type feet and inches with ft and in, or the marks on your tape measure.

All sections at their entered bearings. Numbered runs match the coordinate schedule. Grade rise is measured separately. Separate sections share the drawing origin; coincident endpoints are not automatically merged.

The calculation

  1. Fence section: Δx = 48 × cos(0°); Δy = length × sin(direction).

How to plan the quantity

The first section begins at an arbitrary origin. Enter direction in degrees: east is zero and north is 90. A connected section starts at the previous endpoint; a separate section resets to the origin.

Gate positions are horizontal distances from the start of each run. The post calculation uses the actual slope length but the drawing is a horizontal plan.

Use the coordinate schedule to compare your sketch with a survey or accepted layout. It does not find your property boundary.

Before you order

  • Closing the drawn outline does not prove boundary accuracy, utility clearance or permit compliance.
  • A repeated start and end location is not automatically merged: identify the final shared terminal with your supplier before ordering.
