Custom Metal Carports for Van and Van Zandt County
Van is a town of about 3,900 people in Van Zandt County, about 45 miles from our manufacturing plant in Kilgore, Texas. Severe thunderstorms and high wind roll through every spring and summer. We build each carport from galvanized steel with Sherwin-Williams coated panels, so your cars, trucks and boats stay out of the weather.
Every carport is built to your measurements. Choose the width, length and leg height, then add side panels, gable ends or color-matched trim. A vertical roof sheds rain and debris fastest and carries the strongest wind rating, so it is the style we recommend here. We can anchor to a concrete slab, or install on level ground with auger anchors if you don’t have a pad yet.
Check with the City of Van about permit requirements before you build; we supply engineered drawings for the application. Our crews serve Van and the surrounding communities of Hideaway, Grand Saline, Mineola and Lindale. Most installs take a single day, and financing is available.
