Who actually builds it.
We are a dealer. We do not roll steel or run a line — we order from the manufacturers below, to your dimensions, and we handle everything between you and them. Which of them builds yours is our call, and it comes down to two things: what the building has to do, and how far it has to travel to reach you.
You are welcome to read up on any of them first. You do not have to — nobody ordering a garage should need to, and the quote already accounts for the choice.
The plants behind our catalog.
Every one is a real company you can look up, which is worth saying plainly on a page like this. What actually differs between them — and the only part that changes anything for you — is where they have plants.
Coast to Coast Carports
Four plants across the West and Southwest, which is what lets a building for Idaho be built in Idaho instead of trucked out of Arkansas.
4 plants→Eagle Carports
A North Carolina manufacturer building since 1997, with six plants and a delivery map across thirty-one states. Most of our everyday work east of the Mississippi comes from here.
Read the page→American Steel Carports
The manufacturer this dealership is built around. Standard carports through fully custom work, with room for a non-standard specification instead of a flat no.
Read the page→Tri-State Carports
Plants in Illinois, Missouri and Nebraska. The manufacturer we order from across the corn belt and the plains, where the building is usually going onto a farm.
3 plants→National Steel Carports
A Mount Airy, North Carolina manufacturer, and the youngest company we order from. Fourteen-gauge frames as standard, with twelve-gauge as a priced upgrade.
1 plant→California All Steel Carports
Two plants, headquartered in Fresno. Near enough to the middle of California that most of the state is a one-day haul, with nothing crossing a state line to reach you.
1 plant→American Carports, Inc
For the job a standard width will not cover. They build to your dimensions rather than to a catalog page, which is why an awkward site ends up here.
Read the page→What that changes, and what it does not.
One order, one specification
A carport, a garage and a barn ordered together can come from one manufacturer on one drawing set, rather than three companies each with a different idea of what you asked for.
The plant is chosen for you
Freight on a wide building is a real number, so the closest plant that can build what you want is usually the right one. Working that out is our job.
No plant pricing
We are a dealer and they are the manufacturer. There is no arrangement here where a step in the chain quietly disappears, and anyone telling you otherwise is selling you something.
Foundation is still yours
Whichever manufacturer builds it, groundwork and any concrete are arranged separately. Worth knowing before you set two quotes side by side.
Let us pick the plant.
Give us the size, the purpose and the address. Which of these builds it is a decision that falls out of those three, and it is already priced into the number you get back.
