James Hardie Siding: Fire-Resistant Protection for Colorado Homes
In Colorado’s dry, fire-prone climate, protecting your home is crucial. While no siding is completely fireproof, James Hardie fiber cement siding offers superior fire resistance. Unlike wood or vinyl, it’s non-combustible and provides an extra layer of safety, helping to slow the spread of flames and giving you time to evacuate.
Key Benefits:
- Fire Resistance: Designed to withstand flames and heat, enhancing safety during a fire.

- Peace of Mind: A reliable choice for protecting your home and family.
Choose James Hardie siding for robust protection and peace of mind in fire-prone areas.
1 Hour Fire-Rated Assemblies
James Hardie fiber cement siding is non-combustible and highly fire-resistant, but it does not achieve a 1-hour fire rating on its own. While it won’t catch fire, it can transfer heat, so it does not qualify as a 1-hour fire-rated material by itself.
However, James Hardie products can be integrated into 1-hour fire-rated assemblies. These assemblies are designed to contain fires and provide crucial time for emergency responders. Additionally, James Hardie siding is suitable for use around fireplaces when combined with other non-combustible materials.
