For one uninterrupted straight run, bays = round up(run length ÷ maximum spacing). Posts = bays + 1. This rule applies to that run only. A gate breaks it into two fenced portions with separate gate posts. A shared corner belongs to both runs but is ordered once.

A 12 m run at a 2.4 m maximum spacing has five bays and six posts. Two perpendicular 6 m runs each require three bays. Counting their shared corner once gives seven posts. A closed four-sided loop has no two free ends: add the bays, then count unique junctions.
