That’s where ABC Seamless Steel Siding steps in as your home’s hero. Our seamless steel siding isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s built tough to safeguard your home against unexpected flare-ups. Whether it’s a rogue ember or a grill mishap, our siding acts as an extra layer of defense, giving you peace of mind to grill, entertain, and relax.

The Science Behind Steel Siding

Unlike traditional siding materials like wood or vinyl, ABC Seamless Steel Siding is engineered with non-combustible material, providing a high level of protection from fire. See for yourself in this burn test video. The steel siding helps prevent the spread of flames, which in the event of a fire, can help contain and minimize damage, protecting both the exterior and interior of your home. 

The photo below emphasizes the critical importance of ABC Seamless Steel siding. When a neighboring house caught fire, the heat and flames were so intense that the house next door (pictured) also sustained significant fire damage. The extreme heat caused the vinyl siding to melt and warp, putting the adjacent house at serious risk of catching fire. 

This unfortunate event underscores the critical role of choosing fire-resistant materials for your home’s exterior, like ABC Seamless Steel Siding, which can provide an added layer of protection against such hazards.

Remember the scenario where a BBQ flare-up sends sparks towards your home? Well, John Dehn of Princeton, MN, faced exactly that with an accidental grill fire that could have been disastrous for his home. But thanks to his ABC Seamless Steel Siding, the damage was minimal, and his house was saved. 

John recalls, “After hearing a huge woosh, I found flames shooting toward the house like a flamethrower. The steel siding, with no splices for flames to penetrate, saved my house. I am tremendously thankful to ABC Seamless for a great product. It has paid for itself in more ways than one.” Installations like John’s, dating back to 1991, prove the durability and effectiveness of ABC Seamless Siding in protecting homes from fire hazards.
