Our Story
About
Garris Direct
We show up. We answer the phone. We take problems head-on.
Who We Are
Division 8, 10 & 12
Done Right. Every Time.
Garris Direct is a commercial subcontractor and material distributor serving general contractors, construction managers, and developers on multifamily projects nationwide — headquartered in NJ, serving projects coast to coast.
With 25+ years of combined experience in commercial construction, our team has been on the job site and in the back office for every type of multifamily project — garden-style, mid-rise, high-rise, affordable, and market-rate. We know what GCs need, and we deliver it without being managed.
We specialize in Division 8 Doors, Frames & Hardware, Division 10 Specialties, and Division 12 Cabinets & Countertops — supplying top brands including Schlage, Von Duprin, LCN, ASI, Bobrick, Florence, and Moen.

What Sets Us Apart
How We Work
We own the scope from bid to punch list. Submittals on time. Deliveries phased to your schedule. Closeout docs ready when you need them. No handoffs, no excuses.
What We Stand For
We answer the phone. We send submittals on time. We show up on the job site when we say we will. That's not a value statement — it's just how we operate.
What We've Done
45+ multifamily projects nationwide. Garden-style communities, mid-rise towers, affordable housing, and market-rate developments. We've seen every challenge — and handled it.
