Great service and product
Easy, selections for options just easy, all around easy.
It was OK
Works great. Recommended.
Only negative was the time it took to receive the carport.
I am glad to have selected this company. They were very helpful when I was having the concrete poured. I had a question which they answered right away. This was the best experience I have had in many years. I wish all purchases had such positive results. Thank you.
If you want a great deal on a high-quality product and don't mind waiting 2-3 months for a company to manufacture and install; than don't look no further. This company produces a high-quality product with fast professional installation at a great price. A professional team of three men showed up in the middle of the summer (90 + degrees) and install our 20' x 31' carport on an existing concrete pad in a little over two hours. This company provides great customer service; which is seldom seen or heard of these days. We are truly impressed with this company's products and customer service that we would highly recommend them to anyone looking for a carport or shed.
Waited way too long for the delivery. I purchased the carport too high. When the they did come and set it up, it was quick and fast. Overall good product.
Great to work with!
My patience was wearing thin waiting for this to arrive, but when it did I was thrilled with the quality of the carport. It is strong and well designed and Daniel Perez and his crew were friendly and professional. They had it up in less than 2 hours after they arrived. A great buy if you're not in a hurry.
Was just fine
Very satisfied
Love the carport & the time it took the guys to put it up. They really knew their job & worked together like clockwork! Overall, we're real happy!
I had great service on my last purchase and decided to purchase another carport from this company!
The guys that put up the carport were great. I was not very pleased with the way North Carolina Carports handled this purchase.
Pleasant and friendly
Great deal, very pleased with our carport.
Excellent have already recommend Alan's to family. My son will be ordering shortly.
I had good experiences with everyone i dealt with through the process at Alan's Factory Outlet. And i like the carport. It seems well built and the installation itself was quick and easy.
As my possible delivery date came closer, i called to see if they had any idea where i was on the schedule because i had a lot going on at the time and was trying to make sure i could plan around the delivery. Customer service at AFO directed me to call the manufacturer, North Carolina Carports. I called them once a week or so for like 3 weeks once we passed the 2 month expected waiting period, trying to check on if they had any idea when i would come up on the schedule. And through the 2-3 people i talked to each time getting directed around. Most of them immediately caught an attitude and were rude. One lady blatantly hung up on me. I was trying to be courteous the whole time but was really rubbed the wrong way with the customer service from the manufacturer. I like the carport, and i like AFO, but if i ever need another carport, i think I'll be shopping elsewhere.
Last purchase was damaged by wind. Get the mobile home anchors for ground installation.
They are well worth it.
Answer: I paid in October and it was installed in Dec last month.
Answer: Leave off the roll up doors. If you remove the Carolina doors you lose your warranty. But you can buy an opener and modify it so it maybe would work and lose your warranty on the opener if it quits.
Answer: No they deliver when they get 5 or 6 more buildings.
Answer: They use shady install contractors. I bought a garage online from Alan's and was sent a contract with name Carolina Carports on it. They are a total joke with 2 out of 5 star review. They've been out twice and still unable to install tiny 18x26 on new slab. I wouldn't hire them to put up a doghouse.
