Fastening Solutions

🌟 Celebrating 70 Years! Seventy years is a long time for any company to last — and a rarer thing still to do it well. What started on June 1, 1956, as Southern Duo-Fast in Birmingham, AL — founded by Bill Rue Sr. and B.R. Albright — has grown into a regional powerhouse serving over 15 states across the Southeast and beyond. Three generations of the Rue family have guided FSI from humble Alabama roots to a trusted name in power fastening and industrial packaging across the region. Seventy years of growth, innovation, and dedication — none of it possible without the trust and loyalty of our customers. Here's to making Year 71 the best one yet! 🎉

Today we honor the brave men and women who gave their lives for our freedom. We are grateful. On this Memorial Day, we pause to remember them and extend our deepest respect to the families who carry their legacy forward.

Our Associates are the heart of everything we do—we deeply value their dedication, talent, and hard work. So, on July 9th, FSI proudly provided catered meals to all our Associates across eight (8) states and seventeen (17) branch locations! The "FEEDBACK" or message we wanted to pass along was, "We sincerely appreciate all you do, so THANK YOU!!"

A special shout out to Uncle Mick's Cajun Market & Cafe in Prattville, AL, and also to Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Corporate Catering for helping bring it all together!

Recently, FSI's Montgomery warehouse embarked on a significant first phase of a project to upgrade our facilities. This Phase 1 is quite comprehensive and will significantly increase our warehousing capacity, as well as improving the efficiency and flow of inbound and outbound shipments.

First off, we’re installing a brand-new loading dock that will be able to stage up to six trucks at the same time. This is a game-changer for us and will significantly streamline our operations. Additionally, we’re relocating our inbound receiving operation to better accommodate the increased capacity. This move is crucial as it will help us handle a larger volume of shipments efficiently.

We’re also giving the front driveway a complete overhaul to better facilitate traffic flow. This upgrade will complement the new location of our larger docks and ensure that everything runs smoothly.

As part of our 10-year growth plan, all the current construction is being done with future expansion in mind. The new dock’s location was strategically chosen to allow for an additional 35,000 square feet of storage space, which can be constructed without compromising our productivity and the flow of products in and out of the facility while doing it.

These upgrades are incredibly exciting and are set to propel us forward in our growth plans!
