Using a minimum debian/rules file with dh(1) works just fine with that.
If there is no build system, dh won't use it. :-)

Putting all files from a folder into a .deb is very easy, just write a
debian/install file telling where the files should go. See
dh_install(1).
If your installed files should have non-standard permissions, you might
need to prevent dh_fixperms from adjusting the file permissions. Read
the dh(1) and dh_fixperms(1) manpages for how to to that.

I have attached a skeleton package, feel free to use it as a starting
point (it's not copyrightable).
