Linear foot
A foot measured along a single line — length only — the unit run-based work like fencing is priced by ($ per linear foot).
Unlike a square foot (area) or a cubic yard (volume), a linear foot measures a one-dimensional run. Fences, gutters, and trim are quoted per linear foot installed, so a 150-foot fence at $33 per linear foot runs about $4,950 before gates and extras.
