More Information: Ornamental Fence System Overview
This illustration points out that each line of fence, identified by the letters, is separate and distinctively different than the others for estimating purposes. Note that the side A-B, are two separate lines, do not include the width of the gate.
It does not matter that your fence project may not match the illustration. Make a similar drawing of your project and label the sides. This will help clarify your entries in the fields below.
Enter footage for each stretch:
A:_____ B:_____ C:_____ D:_____ E:_____ F:_____ G:_____ H:_____ I:_____ J:_____ K:_____ L:_____ Total =_____ft.
Total ft. = _____ ÷ 6 = _____
NOTE: If answer is a fraction, round this number up to the next number to get the total number of fence sections needed for your job.
Add a (1) fence section to the total below for each gate you will be building.
Total Fence Sections = _____
The Patriot™ fence system uses "blank posts" meaning they are not routed to accept fence sections like most styles. This style of fence uses "rail end brackets" to attach the fence rails to the posts. Therefore all the posts are the same and can be used for line, corner, end, and gate posts. However, post caps and mounting brackets are included with the posts so posts are ordered as line, corner, and end posts to assure the proper fittings are included. Gate posts for this style fence are considered end posts. Mark your drawing to show posts as in the drawing at left. These posts will be added to the total once we figure line posts.
Line Posts: Enter footage for each stretch, divide by 6 (round up to next highest number if fraction), then subtract 1. This will give you the amount of line posts needed for each stretch. Lets give this a try...
A:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
B:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
C:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
D:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
E:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
F:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
G:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
H:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
I:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
J:_____ ÷ 6 = _____ - 1 =_____
Add all figures above for total line posts = _____
Add all corner posts from your drawing =_____
Add all end posts from your drawing = _____
Make sure to remember your gates. Gates for this system are built using a gate kit. For each gate, you will need to add (1) fence section to the total at the beginning of this sheet. Once you are done, give us a call to order!
