Fence Takeoff Software: Measure Fence Lines, Gates & Posts From the Site Plan
Click along the property line, count the gates, and the quote fills with panels, posts and concrete from your own price list.
What you measure
Fence lines (LF)
Trace each fence style along the site plan as its own linear group.
Gates (EA)
Count walk gates, double drive gates and slide gates separately.
Corners & ends
Count terminal and corner posts that need heavier posts or bracing.
Fence on slope
Use a slope angle on hillside runs so panels and posts are not under-counted.

What you price
Why fencing & gates businesses switch
Fence quotes are usually built from a satellite photo, a measuring wheel and a spreadsheet. TrueScope measures the actual site plan, prices it from your catalogue and gives the crew the same marked-up plan on their phones.
Setup tip
On each fence style set 1 LF = 0.125 line posts (8 ft spacing) and 1 post = 2 bags of concrete, so one traced line counts posts and concrete too.
Common questions
