How to Measure Your Property for a Fence
We'll teach you how using Google Maps
1. Open Google.com and search for your property address. Once the map appears, click on the “Maps” tab.
2. Switch to “Satellite” view by selecting the option in the lower-left corner of the screen, then zoom in until your property is clearly visible.
3. Right-click on your property and select “Measure distance” from the menu that appears.
4. Click along the edges of your property where you want the fence to go. Each click adds a new point to your fence line. Continue clicking around your desired fence area.
5. In our example, we’re outlining most of the property but leaving a section open. The total distance shown at the bottom of the screen is the amount of fencing material needed — in this case, 376.79 feet (or 114.85 meters).
