Finding aluminum trim/molding in Los Angeles area?

Postby kmagill » Thu Oct 03, 2013 1:23 pm

Can anyone suggest where I might find aluminum tee molding in the Los Angeles area? I know it's available online via RW Johnson ( I ordered windows from them which were delivered promptly and a good value) but I was hoping to find the trim locally.
Thanks for any suggestions (I've looked at "Rich's List" but no luck.

Not exactly in Los Angeles, but how about http://www.socalteardrops.com in Upland, CA

I don't know if they have it in stock, but try calling Walts RV surplus. Walt has a variety of inventory coming in and out of stock. They don't mail order, but it may be close enough to visit. If you live close enough it would be worth a visit to see all of the accessories you might be able to use on your build. You will want to visit before you get to far along in your build, you WILL find something that may change the way you build.

I've used these guys for a lot of stuff. The owner is an old time trailer guy and can get just about anything. They're in Santa Clarita

Thanks for these replies. I'm only seeing them now, 2 weeks later, because for some reason I don't get notifications. My apologies for not responding sooner.

cuyeda, for some reason I thought SoCal was in San Diego. In fact they are about 45 minutes from my place. I also thought they only sold complete trailers, didn't know they sold parts too. Thanks for that.
I have been to Walt's. I bought a basic roof vent there. I was hoping for windows but everything they had was for larger RVs. Great place for "wires and bits"

CarlLaFong, I'm about a half hour from Santa Clarita. I'll have to check out your recommend.
Many thanks.

Check you profile to see if "notifications" are turned on...
