Fences and Gates

IBHS demonstration burn of a typical home versus a wildfire-prepared home in Salem, Oregon in 2025. Flames fully engulf the typical home while the wildfire prepared home stands unscathed.

Attached combustible fences can ignite and act like a wick, spreading fire to homes. Even houses with noncombustible siding can be lost by a burning fence under the eaves.

Use noncombustible fencing, such as aluminum, steel or iron, within five feet of your home.
