A brick order starts with the wall that will actually be built, including its thickness and the spaces left for openings.

Use your own brick dimensions rather than assuming every supplier sells the same size. The allowance belongs on the finished quantity, not on every measurement.

## Inputs and controls

* Measurement unit: Feet; Metres; Inches; Centimetres; Millimetres
* Wall length. Allowed range: 0.001 to 100000
* Wall height. Allowed range: 0.001 to 100000
* Wall thickness (in). Allowed range: 0.01 to 100

## Why use this tool

Door deductions, mortar joints and the purchase allowance stay visible, making it easier to explain the estimate when requesting a supplier quote.


## Before relying on the result

A modular volume estimate. Actual bond, brick dimensions and joints affect the count.


## Tool limitations

A modular volume estimate. Actual bond, brick dimensions and joints affect the count.

## Questions

### Does the count include broken bricks?

Only the allowance you enter covers extra units. Increase it deliberately for handling losses or difficult cuts rather than changing the wall size.

### What should I check before using Brick Calculator?

Check Measurement unit, Wall length, Wall height and Wall thickness. Use the exact units shown beside the controls and replace any example values with your own inputs.
