Even Spacing Calculator

Premium Feature

Use our Even Spacing Calculator to distribute any number of items evenly, with equal end gaps and center options

How It Works

The Even Spacing calculator helps you distribute objects evenly across a given distance, ensuring consistent spacing between items and professional-looking results.

Whether you're installing fence posts, lighting fixtures, or decorative elements, this calculator determines the precise spacing measurements needed for a balanced, symmetrical layout.

Choose between Dynamic and Static modes. Dynamic takes total length and a maximum spacing to determine how many items you need and the actual spacing used. Static lets you set an exact item count to distribute across the length. You can also choose whether items appear at both ends, one end, or neither end.

Key Features

  • Calculate even spacing for any number of items
  • Option for equal end gaps or centered installation
  • Support for different item widths
  • Visualize the spacing layout before installation
  • Two modes: Dynamic (enter total length and max spacing; calculator determines item count and final spacing) and Static (enter total length and item count; calculator returns spacing)
  • End placement options: items at both ends, one end, or neither

How to Use

  1. Choose a mode: Dynamic or Static
  2. Enter the total length of the area
  3. If Dynamic: provide a maximum spacing (and item width if applicable) — the calculator will determine the number of items and actual spacing
  4. If Static: input the number of items to be spaced (and item width if applicable) — the calculator will compute the spacing
  5. Choose whether items appear at both ends, one end, or neither end
  6. Choose between equal end gaps or centered layout
  7. View and apply the calculated spacing measurements (including item count for Dynamic mode)
