Local Building experts
Steel Buildings Built for Baker and East Baton Rouge Parish
Baker is a town of about 12,500 people in East Baton Rouge Parish, about 250 miles from our manufacturing plant in Kilgore, Texas. Tropical systems from the Gulf can bring hurricane-force wind and days of heavy rain. Our metal buildings are made from galvanized steel with Sherwin-Williams coated panels, so what you store inside stays dry.
Every building is custom: choose the bay count, roll-up and walk-in doors, windows and color. We recommend a vertical roof for the best wind rating and fastest runoff. Concrete gives the strongest hold, but level ground with auger anchors works well on many rural lots.
From garages in town to shops and barns out in the county, we build for every kind of property. Check with the City of Baker about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews install throughout Baker and nearby Zachary, Central, Baton Rouge and Port Allen. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
