RE: FILING OF FORM 10-SB FOR SENTRY BUILDERS CORP.
----------------------------------------------
Gentlemen:
This opinion is submitted pursuant to applicable rules of the Securities and
Exchange Commission with respect to the filing of Form 10-SB for the Sentry
Builders Corp.
In my capacity as securities counsel to Sentry Builders Corp., I have examined
the original, certified, conformed, or other copies of Sentry's Certificate of
Renewal and Revival of Charter, Bylaws and other corporate minutes provided to
me by Sentry Builders. In all such examinations, I have assumed the genuineness
of all signatures on original documents, and the conformity to originals or
certified documents of all copies submitted to me as conformed, Photostat or
other copies. In passing upon certain corporate records and documents of Sentry,
I have necessarily assumed the correctness and completeness of the statements
made or included therein by Sentry Builders Corp., and I express no opinion
thereon. Based upon and in reliance of the foregoing, I am of the opinion that
the Common Stock has been validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. I
hereby consent to the use of this opinion in the Registration Statement on Form
10-SB to be filed with the Commission.
/s/ Allan M. Lerner
