Trimlite has acquired Builders Hardware, Inc. (BHI), a Tampa, Fla.-based distributor of exterior doors, door glass, and related door products to residential and commercial customers. Financial terms of the deal were not publicly disclosed.
“We are extremely proud of the business our family has built since Les Godwin founded BHI in 1954, and we are excited to partner with Trimlite and Wynnchurch during our next phase of growth,” Will Godwin, general manager of BHI, said in a prepared statement. “Partnering with Trimlite will expand our product offering and allow us to better serve new and existing customers across the Southeast U.S.”
Trimlite is a vertically-integrated distributor of residential doors and related door products. The company supplies a broad offering of interior and exterior door slabs, prehung doors, door glass and door lights, and other related products which are sold through its network of wholesale distributors, dealers, and OEM customers.
“BHI has developed a strong reputation in Florida for providing its customers with exceptional service, fast lead times, and quality products. The combined platform will be able to service customers’ needs that much better,” Patrick Hooper, CEO of Trimlite, said.
Vancouver, British Columbia-based Trimlite operates 10 locations in four countries and is a Wynnchurch Capital portfolio company. Wynnchurch Capital is based in Rosemont, Ill., with offices in California, New York, and an affiliate in Canada.
