Custom Metal Buildings Serving Port Arthur and Jefferson County

Port Arthur is a city of about 56,000 people in Jefferson County, about 185 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.

Each building is made to your plan, from a one-car garage to a wide-open shop, with the roll-up doors, walk-in doors and windows you need. We recommend a vertical roof for the strongest wind rating and fastest runoff. A concrete slab gives the strongest hold. Level ground with auger anchors also works on many lots.

Port Arthur-area customers order everything from two-car garages to workshops and equipment barns. Check with the City of Port Arthur about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews serve Port Arthur and the surrounding communities of Groves, Port Neches, Nederland and Bridge City. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
