Who We Are

Building Material Specialists Since 1932

Builders United Sales has been providing quality specialty construction products which include glass walls, operable walls, accordion doors, wood roll-up doors, metal lockers, and storage solutions since our inception in 1932. It is our mission to provide the highest level of quality product & installation services available. We believe the best way to achieve this goal is by being involved early in the project analysis with owners, architects and general contractors to determine the best value of product available. Our customers include hotels, schools, church & religious institutions, airports, shopping centers, sports arenas, residential layouts, office buildings, convention centers, ballrooms, banks and wherever there is a need for space division & storage solutions.
