Fence Calculator API
Fencing material estimating as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The posts endpoint works out the number of fence sections, line posts and rails for a run from its length and the post spacing, plus the total rail length. The pickets endpoint computes how many pickets or boards a length needs from the picket width and the gap between boards (set the gap to zero for a privacy fence). The materials endpoint produces a full bill of materials in one call — posts, rails, pickets and the concrete for the post holes, in cubic feet and metres and in 80 lb pre-mix bags — from the fence dimensions and the hole size and post depth. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. These are estimates: allow extra for waste, gates and corner posts, and follow your local building code for post depth and footing size. Picket width and gap are in inches; length can be feet, yards or metres. Ideal for fencing contractors and estimators, DIY and home-improvement tools, and landscaping and quoting software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is fencing materials; for paint, tile and concrete use a construction-calculator API and for mulch and gravel use a landscaping API.
