Metal Garages and Workshops for La Porte and Harris County

La Porte is a city of about 35,000 people in Harris County, about 190 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.

You choose the size, the number of bays, the doors and windows, and the colors. A vertical roof gives the best wind rating and sheds rain fastest, so it is what we recommend here. Concrete gives the strongest hold, but level ground with auger anchors works well on many rural lots.

Customers here order garages, workshops, barns and storage buildings in every size. Check with the City of La Porte about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews cover La Porte, Deer Park, Seabrook, Pasadena and Taylor Lake Village. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
