YOUR LOCAL
METAL FABRICATOR

Oak & Iron was founded in Colorado and built its reputation across Boulder County. We're not a national franchise or a distant contractor who shows up and disappears. We're local — and we've built metalwork that's standing on properties from the Boulder city limits to the Longmont plains to the foothills above Nederland.

Boulder County is a place with specific demands: high UV and freeze-thaw cycles that destroy cheap materials, wildfire interface zones that require non-combustible structures, and property owners who care deeply about quality and craftsmanship. We build for those demands.

Whether your project is a simple railing on a suburban deck or a full perimeter fence and entry system for a 20-acre rural property, we bring the same approach: listen carefully, fabricate precisely, and install it so it lasts decades.

Boulder County Wildfire Mitigation

FIREPROOF FENCING
IN BOULDER COUNTY

Boulder County contains some of Colorado's highest-risk wildland-urban interface zones. The foothills from Eldorado Springs to Lyons, the open space corridors behind Boulder and Superior, and the grassland-adjacent neighborhoods of Louisville and Lafayette all sit in areas where wildfire is a genuine and documented risk.

Metal privacy fencing is the single highest-impact fire-hardening upgrade many Boulder County homeowners can make. Wood fencing is effectively a combustion bridge that carries fire from the wildland edge directly to your home's structure. Steel and aluminum fencing interrupts that pathway entirely.

Boulder County Land Use code recognizes this — WUI zones require or strongly encourage non-combustible materials for exterior structures. We build code-compliant, visually appealing metal fencing that satisfies both the fire-mitigation requirements and your property's aesthetic.

  • Non-combustible steel and aluminum materials
  • Rated for Colorado WUI zone requirements
  • Interrupts fire spread from wildland to structure
  • Insurance-recognizable fire-hardening improvement
  • Lasts 30–50+ years in Colorado climate
  • Custom heights from 4 feet to 8+ feet
  • Privacy, semi-privacy, and open styles available
  • Gate integration for complete entry systems

WHAT THEY SAY

★★★★★

"We have a small ranch property outside Niwot and needed a new entry gate and perimeter fencing that could handle real wind and hard use. Oak & Iron came out to the property, walked it with us, understood what we needed, and built exactly that. The gate is heavy, perfectly hung, and automating it was seamless. The fence posts are set deep and solid. This is the kind of work that makes you want to tell everyone you know about a contractor. Five stars doesn't cover it."

BOULDER COUNTY FAQ

Yes. We regularly work on rural and acreage properties throughout unincorporated Boulder County — from Niwot to Gunbarrel to the foothills above Eldorado Springs. Large-property perimeter fencing, ranch gates, and agricultural metalwork are a core part of our work.
Boulder County Land Use code requires or strongly recommends ignition-resistant or non-combustible materials for new construction in designated WUI zones. Even outside of strict requirements, fire mitigation experts universally recommend replacing wood fencing with metal in high-risk areas. We can advise on what's required for your specific parcel.
Our primary service area is Boulder County. We also take select projects in Denver metro, Jefferson County, Larimer County, and the broader Front Range corridor. Contact us with your location and project scope and we'll let you know if we can accommodate it.
