Fast Arch Of America Inc

Darrel Lilly invented the Fast Arch in 1991 and received patent number 5572834 in 1996.  Darrel created the Fast Arch System for use in his own custom home building company.  He used his skills and machinery from a previous enterprise, which was a custom sheet metal fabricator.  While an expert in working with sheet metal and a whiz at math, Darrel happily admits his framing skills were limited.  To overcome that lack, he created a way to make arches faster and more consistent.  In fact, he designed the basic Fast Arch System in less than a day!  While he's made improvements in the construction process, that first concept is still in use today.  In the beginning, it was a one man operation located in a little 900 square foot facility.  Darrel's first goal was to produce and sell 200 arches per month. It only took three months to reach that goal.  As builders discovered how the Fast Arch System would save them both time and money while improving their finished product, we quickly outgrew that little space.

 Those same builders needed other curved solutions.  So our Arches were quickly joined by Niches, Radius-Track walls, and a large number of complex Ceiling designs, all custom created for your project.  As you look around the site, you'll find lots of ideas to inspire your next project.  Currently, Fast Arch of America Inc. has 21 full time employees and a 5,000 square foot facility.  We're already planning for a 10,000 square foot facility.  Our customer list has driven that expansion and we currently serve 73 various subdivisions for four national tract home builders, a number of regional tract home builders and several custom home builders.  And that is just in the Phoenix Metro area!  We also have hundreds of customers nationally. Fast Arch Systems are used in residential, industrial and commercial buildings. Today, we produce and sell over 4,250 arches per month.
