Aluminum Fencing

Local wildfire requirements vary by neighborhood and site conditions. We help review AHJ guidance and select material options that align with your property.

Available in styles ranging from ornamental to privacy panels, aluminum fencing offers the aesthetics of traditional fencing without the fire risk. Warranty terms vary by product included.

Steel & Gabion Walls

For properties needing substantial fencing or retaining walls, welded steel and gabion walls provide superior strength and complete fire resistance.

Gabion walls are particularly popular in Poway's hillside neighborhoods where retaining walls are needed. The stone-filled steel mesh baskets provide both structural support and fire-proof construction with excellent drainage.
