Itemised fence installation example

Each amount is its quantity multiplied by its AUD unit rate, rounded to cents. These 7 entries match the fixture used to make the PDF. Metric surface and length units describe the priced work, not a conversion rule for another property.

Fence installation example — AUD Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |

Posts material allowance | 14 each | A$49.00 | A$686.00 |

Rail material allowance | 91.44 m | A$6.50 | A$594.36 |

Picket material allowance | 220 each | A$3.36 | A$739.20 |

Concrete and hardware allowance | 1 job | A$504.00 | A$504.00 |

Fence installation labour | 30.48 m | A$69.00 | A$2,103.12 |

Gate supply and installation | 1 each | A$455.00 | A$455.00 |

Layout and cleanup | 1 job | A$350.00 | A$350.00 |

Subtotal / example total | A$5,431.68 |

Calculation check: 14 each × A$49.00 = A$686.00; 91.44 m × A$6.50 = A$594.36. The demonstration tax field is 0%, so the displayed total stays A$5,431.68. Determine tax and markup for your own work instead of using this input as guidance.

Assumptions and scope boundaries

This sample uses 14 posts and one gate, but real quantities follow the actual layout. Review rail lengths, picket spacing and hardware against the agreed system. Avoid copying the example count into a different fence without a takeoff.

Outside this example: No survey, old-fence removal, rock excavation, retaining structures, staining or automatic gate equipment.

Selections, access or concealed conditions that differ from this scope require a revised quantity, allowance or separate line. The example deliberately separates them so the client can see what has and has not been priced.

Common questions about fence installation

Is fence length enough for a complete estimate?

No. It is a starting measurement. Gates, corners, height, components, terrain and removal requirements can change the scope and should be identified.

How should I show an optional second gate?

Keep it outside the accepted base total as a clearly labelled option, or issue a revised estimate once the customer selects it.
