Fire Mitigation Fence Styles
We offer noncombustible and fire-resistant fencing options tailored to Boulder County’s wildfire risks and your property’s aesthetic. Each style complies with local regulations, including Louisville’s requirement for Class A materials (Flame Spread Index of 25 or less) or ignition-resistant materials like metal or masonry within 5 feet of structures. Here’s what’s possible:
Steel Fencing
Steel fences are a top choice for fire mitigation, resisting flames and embers while offering durability. Ideal for Boulder’s eco-conscious homeowners, they meet Wildfire Partners’ noncombustible standards and Louisville’s fire hardening code. Available in powder-coated finishes, steel provides a modern, secure look.
Aluminum Fencing
Lightweight and fire-resistant, aluminum fences are perfect for Arvada’s practical upgraders. These low-maintenance options comply with local fire codes and create an open, defensible space, ideal for suburban properties seeking safety without sacrificing style.
Masonry Fencing
Masonry fences—concrete, brick, or stone—offer unmatched fire protection and elegance. Popular in Louisville post-Marshall Fire, they meet both Wildfire Partners’ and Louisville’s requirements for ignition-resistant materials, making them a favorite for family-focused homeowners.
Class A-Rated Fiber Cement Fencing
Fiber cement mimics wood’s aesthetic but is fire-resistant with a Class A rating (per ASTM E84). It’s a budget-friendly option for Longmont’s middle-class families, meeting Louisville’s fire hardening standards while providing a stylish, noncombustible solution.
Our Fire Mitigation Fencing Process
Transparency is at the heart of our work. Here’s how GreenView Solutions brings your fire-safe fence to life, ensuring compliance with Boulder County and Louisville regulations:
- Consultation & Site Assessment: We visit your property to evaluate wildfire risks, review Wildfire Partners’ guidelines, and ensure compliance with Louisville’s Fire Hardening Code, recommending materials like metal or Class A-rated products.
- Custom Design: We design a fence that meets local fire codes (e.g., noncombustible within 5 feet of structures) and your aesthetic goals, whether it’s a steel privacy fence or a masonry barrier.
- Proposal & Comparison: We provide a detailed quote and encourage you to get 2-3 bids to compare. GreenView prioritizes quality over quantity, unlike volume-driven competitors, ensuring your fence meets fire safety standards.
- Permitting & Compliance: We handle permit applications, ensuring your fence meets Louisville’s requirement for a separate permit and Class A or ignition-resistant materials, as outlined in their fire hardening ordinance.
- Professional Installation: Using premium materials like galvanized steel posts, our skilled crew installs your fence with precision, adhering to Wildfire Partners’ recommendation to avoid combustible materials near homes.
- Final Walkthrough: We review the project to confirm it meets our high standards, local codes, and your expectations, delivering a fire-safe fence that protects your home.
The Long-Term Value of Fire Mitigation Fencing
Let’s tackle the elephant in the room: many homeowners underestimate the role a fence plays in wildfire safety. As Wildfire Partners notes, “Fences are Fuses”—combustible fences, like wood, can act as a fuse, carrying fire to your home. The 2021 Marshall Fire showed how wooden fences fueled fire spread, destroying homes in Louisville and Superior. Noncombustible or Class A-rated fencing creates a defensible space, reducing risk and potentially saving your property. Louisville’s Fire Hardening Code, adopted via Ordinance 1891 in 2025, mandates that fencing within 5 feet of homes use Class A materials (Flame Spread Index of 25 or less) or ignition-resistant materials like metal or masonry to prevent fire spread.
At GreenView, we use materials that meet these standards, backed by a lifetime warranty on steel and masonry for lasting durability. Our fences also qualify for up to $500 in Wildfire Partners rebates, offsetting costs for eligible Boulder County residents. For example, a Louisville family we served replaced their cedar fence with a Class A-rated fiber cement fence, earning a rebate and boosting their home’s fire resilience.
Why Fire-Resistant Materials Are Critical
Wildfire Partners emphasizes that combustible fences within 5-10 feet of homes are a major fire risk, as embers can ignite wood, spreading flames to structures. Louisville’s Fire Hardening Code reinforces this, requiring noncombustible or Class A-rated fencing near buildings to enhance community safety. Our noncombustible materials—steel, aluminum, masonry, or fiber cement—don’t ignite or fuel fires, creating a Home Ignition Zone (HIZ) that protects your property. These materials also withstand Boulder County’s harsh weather, reducing maintenance costs over time.
