At Armstrong Steel, we recognize that every customer brings different experience levels and capabilities to their building project. Some of our customers are seasoned contractors who understand the technical details and prefer to manage everything themselves. Others are first-time builders who need guidance through the process - and that's exactly what we're here for.
Whether you're a savvy do-it-yourselfer or completely new to steel buildings, we'll work with you to find the right purchasing approach. We can show you how to maximize savings through our Direct Buy Program, or we can recommend local professionals to manage your entire project from start to finish.
Direct Buy Program
The Direct Buy Program gives qualified customers access to Armstrong's direct pricing catalog, eliminating the middleman entirely. You'll purchase individual components - panels, screws, doors, windows, insulation - at exclusive contractor pricing. This approach delivers deeper discounts by putting you in direct control of your building components and specifications.
Most of our customers choose Direct Buy because it maximizes their budget while giving them complete oversight of their project. The process is straightforward: work with an Armstrong Building Consultant to select your components, and we'll coordinate delivery on your timeline. You're in control of the specifications and costs, with expert guidance available whenever you need it. If you're considering building your own steel building, you likely have exactly what it takes to succeed with Direct Buy.
Not sure if Direct Buy is right for your project? Speak to a trusted Armstrong Steel Building Expert who can walk you through the program and help you decide.

Retail Purchase
For customers who prefer a more hands-off approach, we offer a retail purchase option. This is available for clients who know what they want but may not have the time or experience to manage component selection themselves.
With a retail purchase, you'll discuss your needs with an Armstrong Building Consultant who will handle the technical specifications and select compatible door and window models for your project. This includes expert guidance on all specifications, pre-selected compatible components, a simplified ordering process, and professional consultation. Your role is simplified to placing the order and coordinating delivery.
While most of our customers find the Direct Buy Program better suits their needs and budget, a Building Consultant can help determine if the retail option makes sense for your specific situation.
Which Option Is Right For You?
The best purchasing path depends on your experience level, timeline, and how involved you want to be in the building process. Our team can help you evaluate both options based on your specific project.
