MWF Solutions Non-Combustible Fence Systems

About MWF Solutions

MWF Solutions (mwfsolutions.com) manufactures non-combustible steel fence systems across eight named product lines, sold through licensed installers. Hot-dipped galvanized steel, field-proven wind performance, and real fire-test data make these systems a compelling option for homes in California's wildfire-hazard zones.

Product lines

Eight named lines, each with its own profile and board configuration:

Canfield 2.5" and 4" use a square post with a 1"×2" channel and 1"×6" boards. Heights available across the lines: 6', 8', and 12'.

Tested fire performance

These systems have been independently tested by Intertek to ASTM E2768-11, the standard test method for determining fire resistance of exterior building materials. The tested specimens passed, and Intertek's own conclusions state they "met the requirements for Class A within the first 10 minutes."

That is a real, verifiable result, and it is the core reason these systems belong in the conversation about Zone 0 fencing. We cite Intertek's report numbers and quote their published conclusions directly, so what you read here is the test lab's own language, not marketing paraphrase.

Fire-test results per Intertek; report numbers to be added.

Wind performance

Intertek dynamic wind testing confirmed performance to 130 mph sustained / 190 mph gusts, well beyond what a California wildfire-season wind event demands of a fence line.

Materials

All specs per MWF.

A note on the IPE variants

The Dalton w/ IPE and Rimrock w/ IPE lines pair the steel frame with an IPE hardwood board. IPE is a durable, beautiful hardwood, but the IPE board itself is not fire resistant; MWF's own product page states this directly. For a Zone 0 application where fire performance is the priority, the all-steel Dalton w/ Steel and Rimrock w/ Steel variants are the lines to choose.

Warranty

MWF's published materials reference a warranty range of roughly 20–40 years depending on selected coil thickness and galvanization grade, with no single formal published term. We state the range as MWF publishes it; we don't pick one figure. If warranty specifics matter to your decision, we'll confirm current terms with MWF before your order.

How the process works for you

Firewise handles the assessment and coordination: site review, product-line selection, material specification, and scheduling. A local licensed contractor from our network, who holds the contract, performs the installation. That keeps a single accountable party on the work itself, with Firewise making sure the right system is specified for your parcel and your hazard zone.
