Hillman Solutions Corp. announced the acquisition of Delaney Hardware, a U.S. supplier of door and builder’s hardware, on April 13 2026. The deal adds a regional distributor based near Atlanta that serves builders, contractors, and building‑product distributors across the United States, especially in the Southeast.
The acquisition expands Hillman’s pro distribution channel and broadens its product portfolio to include door hardware, entry locksets, deadbolts, door handles, digital and smart locks, and related builder’s hardware. Hillman expects to recognize more than $10 million in net sales from Delaney during fiscal 2026, a contribution that will help the company accelerate growth in a channel that complements its core retail hardware business.
Management said the deal is part of Hillman’s strategy to deepen its pro distribution capabilities and win additional market share in the builder’s hardware segment. “The acquisition of Delaney increases our presence in the pro distribution channel and expands categories, both of which are strategic initiatives for Hillman,” said President and CEO Jon Michael Adinolfi. “We look forward to leveraging this distribution platform to further increase our presence in pro distribution and Win the Pro.” Senior Vice President, Pro James Daly added, “Delaney is a well‑respected regional distributor whose products expand our growing pro distribution capabilities adding both door hardware and builder’s hardware. We are confident that we can leverage Hillman’s core competencies together with Delaney’s pro distribution platform to drive profitable growth in the pro channel.”
The acquisition is Hillman’s second in 2026, following the purchase of Campbell Chain & Fittings earlier in the year. While the financial terms of the Delaney deal were not disclosed, the transaction is expected to enhance Hillman’s geographic reach, particularly in the Southeast, and to strengthen its position in the builder’s hardware market. The company’s market capitalization is $1.68 billion, its revenue was $1.55 billion last year, and its gross profit margin stood at 48.73 percent.
By combining Delaney’s regional distribution network with Hillman’s extensive retail and pro sales force, the company aims to accelerate growth in a channel that has historically delivered higher margins than its retail business. The addition of digital and smart lock products also positions Hillman to capture the growing demand for connected home and commercial security solutions.
The acquisition demonstrates Hillman’s continued focus on inorganic growth to expand its product mix and geographic footprint, reinforcing its long‑term strategy to become a leading pro‑distribution provider.
