Unit Calculators

Instructions:

1. Calculate the total square footage of your project. (Square footage = Length x Width)
2. Subtract the square footage of doors and windows from this total.
3. Enter the adjusted square footage into the Materials Calculator below to determine the number of boxes needed.
4. Add Extra for Cuts and Waste: It’s always a good idea to add a little extra to your order to account for cuts, mistakes, freight damage and waste. A common recommendation is to add 10% to your total square footage.
5. Alternatively, you can calculate manually by dividing the adjusted square footage by 4 to find the number of FLAT boxes needed.

*MENARDS® retail locations contain boxes with different square footage.  Check pricing and square footage details before purchasing.
