Durabond Steel Fence
Corrugated Metal Privacy Fencing — Fire-Rated, Modern, and Built to Last
Sacramento • Roseville • Rocklin • Elk Grove • Folsom • Auburn • El Dorado Hills • and Surrounding Areas
Low Maintenance. Long Lasting. Built for Sacramento.
Looking for a steel privacy fence that is affordable, won’t burn, won’t rot, and won’t need constant upkeep? Durabond corrugated metal fencing delivers what no wood or vinyl fence can.
Built on a galvanized steel frame with a factory-applied COLORBOND® coating — the same technology proven in Australia’s most extreme wildfire zones — this is the product Sacramento-area homeowners are choosing when they want it all. Whether you call it a metal fence, steel fence, corrugated fence, or corrugated metal privacy fence, here’s why:
Fire-Rated Steel Fencing: Zone 0 Compliant and CAL FIRE Ready
California’s wildfire regulations are changing fast, and your fence is now part of the equation. Here’s what you need to know:
Zone 0 rules are coming
Governor Newsom’s Executive Order N-18-25 directed the Board of Forestry to finalize ember-resistant zone rules by end of 2025, with enforcement beginning in 2026.
No grandfathering
Existing homes in Very High Fire Hazard Severity Zones will have approximately three years to comply. Wood and vinyl fencing within five feet of your home must be removed or replaced.
More than half of wildfire home losses
Start with embers landing on combustible materials near the structure — not from direct flame contact. Your wood fence is a wick. A steel fence is a fire break.
CSIRO-tested
Australia’s CSIRO confirmed that COLORBOND® steel fencing outperformed all other materials tested under bushfire conditions, including a 30-minute direct flame immersion test.
✓ Non-combustible barrier — steel does not ignite, melt, or produce burning embers
✓ No gaps for ember intrusion — corrugated panels block windborne embers completely
✓ Radiant heat reduction — steel reduces heat transfer from an approaching fire front
✓ Privacy + fire resistance in one product — no more choosing between the two

A Steel Fence That Actually Looks Good
Most fences look fine on one side and rough on the other. Durabond is different:
True good-neighbor fence
Identical clean corrugated steel finish on both sides. No exposed rails or visible fasteners.
Modern architectural profile
That sets it apart from every other residential fence on the market. This is the fence that makes people pull over and ask, “What is that?”
Three stocked colors
Monument, Woodland Grey, and Jasper — each with a factory finish engineered to resist fading, chalking, and UV degradation.
Pairs beautifully
With modern, transitional, and farmhouse-style homes across Roseville, Folsom, El Dorado Hills, and the Sacramento metro area.
100% Privacy — No Gaps, No Shrinking, No Compromises
Every component — posts, rails, and corrugated steel infill panels — fits into grooved slots and locks together before being secured. The result is a solid steel wall with zero gaps.
Wood fences
shrink, twist, and develop cracks within the first few years. Boards warp and separate.
Vinyl panels
Can separate at seams in Sacramento’s summer heat.
Durabond
Steel panels maintain full, gap-free coverage from day one through decade three and beyond.
Until Durabond, homeowners in fire-prone areas had to choose: a wood or vinyl privacy fence that burns, or an open ornamental iron fence that’s fire-safe but offers no privacy. Corrugated steel fencing gives you both — complete privacy and complete fire resistance in a single product.
30+ Year Lifespan with Near-Zero Maintenance
Durabond uses galvanized steel protected by a COLORBOND® SMP (Silicone Modified Polyester) coating — an engineered architectural finish that’s heat-cured and bonded to the steel. This is not a basic powder coat. It’s a multi-layer system built for decades of outdoor exposure.
What that means for you:
- No painting.
- No staining or sealing.
- No replacing rotted boards.
- No termite treatments.
- No seasonal repairs.
- Maintenance = an occasional rinse with a garden hose.
- Damaged panel? Individual panels can be replaced without removing the entire fence.
What About Dents?
Durabond’s corrugated steel is strong for residential perimeter use, but like any steel panel system, significant direct impact can cause a dent. In our experience, this is rarely an issue for typical residential installations.
- Panel height: 6 feet standard (up to 7 feet available)
- Panel width: 7 feet 9 inches
- Panel weight: approximately 61 lbs per panel
- Sheet thickness: 26 gauge (infill panels), 21 gauge (posts and rails)
- Wind rating: 120+ mph sustained, gusts up to 195 mph (non-cyclonic regions)
- Fire rating: Non-combustible, Class A
- Coating: Factory-applied COLORBOND® SMP finish with UV resistance
- Colors stocked: Monument, Woodland Grey, Jasper
- Warranty: 10-year material warranty from the manufacturer
How Durabond Corrugated Steel Compares
Affordable When You Look at the Full Picture
Durabond has a slightly higher upfront cost than a basic wood fence — but the comparison isn’t apples to apples:
Needs staining every 2–3 years, board replacements within 5–7 years, and a full rebuild in 15–20 years.
Zero maintenance costs, no rebuild cycles, and a 30+ year lifespan.
A well-installed ornamental iron pool fence enhances your backyard, not detracts from it. It complements the pool, the landscaping, and the overall design of your outdoor space.
Through Fantastic Fence to spread the cost of your project.
When you factor in lifetime costs, Durabond is one of the most cost-effective fencing investments a homeowner can make. It’s a build-once, build-right solution.
Steel Fencing and Home Insurance in Fire-Prone Areas
Thousands of Northern California homeowners have been dropped by their insurers due to wildfire risk, forcing them onto the California FAIR Plan with dramatically higher premiums. If that’s you, every fire-hardening step matters.
- California’s Safer from Wildfires program now requires insurers to offer premium discounts when homeowners take verified steps to reduce wildfire risk.
- Replacing a combustible fence with steel is one of the most visible and impactful upgrades you can make — it signals to insurers that your property is being actively fire-hardened.
- We’ve seen growing demand from homeowners in Placer County, Nevada County, and El Dorado County working to get off the FAIR Plan or reduce premiums.
A steel fence alone won’t guarantee a discount, but combined with other fire-hardening measures — fire-rated roofing, ember-resistant vents, defensible space landscaping — it strengthens your property’s overall risk profile.
A fence is only as good as its gate. We install custom steel gates designed to integrate seamlessly with your Durabond corrugated metal fence — pedestrian gates, driveway gates, and automated sliding gates in matching colors and materials. For homeowners in fire zones, matching steel gates ensure your entire perimeter is non-combustible and Zone 0 compliant from corner to corner.
- 100% recyclable at end of life, manufactured with recycled content.
- Multi-decade lifespan means fewer replacement cycles and less material sent to landfill.
- Lower environmental footprint compared to wood fences that need rebuilding every 15–20 years.
Is Durabond Steel Fencing Right for You?
- In a wildfire-prone area and need a non-combustible fence for Zone 0 compliance
- Looking for a modern, architectural privacy fence that looks great from both sides
- Tired of the wood fence maintenance cycle — staining, sealing, replacing boards, rebuilding
- Working to improve your fire insurance situation or get off the FAIR Plan
- In an HOA community where a clean, uniform fence appearance matters
- In a Firewise Community or building to IBHS Wildfire Prepared standards
- W-2 employees with background-checked crews — never subcontractors
- 1,000+ Google reviews and 2,000+ total reviews across all platforms
- Built on-site piece by piece — not prefab panels
- Bulk purchasing power for competitive material pricing
- Three office locations: Rocklin, Sacramento, and Elk Grove
- CA Contractor’s License #979657
