Colorbond Fence System Installation in Los Angeles

Engineered Steel Fencing for Defensible Space Compliance and Zone 0 Wildfire Protection

Burkhardt Custom installs authentic Colorbond steel fence systems imported and distributed in the United States by DuraBond, purpose-built for wildfire-conscious properties across Southern California.

We are the exclusive installing contractor for this product line across Los Angeles, Ventura, Santa Barbara, San Bernardino, Riverside, and Orange counties.

The primary advantage of Colorbond fencing is its non-combustible steel construction, making it a strong candidate for properties preparing for California’s emerging Zone 0 (ember-resistant) defensible space requirements.

For homeowners in high fire hazard areas, Colorbond offers a modern privacy fence solution that aligns with wildfire hardening strategies while maintaining clean architectural appeal.

Designed for Wildfire-Resistant Perimeters

Unlike traditional wood fencing, Colorbond systems are manufactured from coated steel panels that do not ignite or sustain flame in the same way combustible materials can.

Wildfire-Focused Advantages

• Non-combustible steel construction
• No exposed wood components
• Resistant to ember intrusion through panels
• Helps reduce fence-to-structure fire pathways
• Suitable for Zone 0 planning strategies
• Factory-finished for durability

Because of these characteristics, Colorbond fencing is increasingly being selected by Southern California property owners focused on wildfire preparedness.

⚠️ Final compliance should always be verified against local AHJ (Authority Having Jurisdiction) requirements.

Zone 0 and Class A Material Considerations

California’s evolving Zone 0 defensible space regulations emphasize the use of non-combustible and ignition-resistant materials within the first five feet of structures.

Colorbond steel fencing aligns well with these goals because:

• The panels are steel (non-combustible)
• The system contains no exposed wood pickets
• The finish is factory-applied and durable
• The design minimizes ember traps

When properly installed and integrated with site-specific fire hardening measures, Colorbond systems can support properties working toward Zone 0 readiness.
