These totals are not fence quantities. The measurement gives areas and edges for the whole lot. It does not tell you the path the fence actually takes, where the gate openings go, or which existing runs stay. Property totals may inform scope, but do not become project quantities until assigned to an explicit run, surface or assembly. Add each run yourself on the next step, and say where its number came from.

On-site verification

An aerial number is a starting point, not a measurement you can sign.

This cannot be ticked until a site visit date is entered.

Define the fence, one run at a time

A run is one side. Name it the way you would say it out loud on site.

Doors (gates)

Doors are priced per foot of width, the way the sheet prices them. A 4-foot single door is 4 feet at the single-door cost per foot; a 12-foot double door is 12 feet at the double-door cost per foot. Each door's width comes out of the fence line, so no foot is priced twice.

Waste, cuts and posts

Posts are calculated per run at the spacing above, plus a terminal post at each end of each run and each side of each gate.

Fence type and height

The nine fence types of your fence sub-budgeting sheet.

Cost lines

These are the estimate's fence lines (category 01): the same lines, the same calculation. Every line says what its price is based on; a price or quantity set in the estimate shows here too.

Authorisation path

Each step unlocks the next. Nothing here sends anything to anyone.

    Where this goes next

    This budget feeds the fence lines of the estimate (category 01). The other categories, subcontracted scopes and the client budget live there.

    Working budget only. Rates are allowances or template figures until a supplier or a subcontractor quotes in writing. It lives in this browser, on this device — nothing is saved to the Urth database and nothing is sent to a client.
