About Atlantic Hardware Supply

Atlantic Hardware Supply serves as a one-stop shop providing tools, fasteners, safety products, fire stop, access doors, strut, lumber, concrete repair materials, and much more to professional contractors by meeting their distinct and customized supply needs in non-residential, residential and infrastructure markets.  Atlantic Hardware Supply started modestly in 2009 with a facility in Mechanicsville, MD.  However, Chief Financial Officer Jon Gray Sr was not new to the service industry, coming from over three decades of successfully operating Diamond Tool Company in the Washington/Baltimore metropolitan market.  In 2008 Jon Sold Diamond Tool with a plan to spend more time with his family, but his passion for business soon led him back into the game when he saw a lack of service, support, and technical expertise in the commercial construction market.  He brought his family into the business with him; his wife Frances Gray became CEO, and together they assembled a veteran sales staff as well as technical sales representatives.  Later, the Gray’s daughter, Lauren Van Roon joined the company working every position from sales, customer service, accounting, purchasing, and inventory control.  As Lauren gained experience she eventually worked her way into the position of President.  Lauren’s brother, Jon Gray Jr soon followed the same path and became the Vice President.  Today we are still a family run and women owned company with a mission to build the kind of partnerships that foster trust and loyalty.  Our business is here to help you be successful in yours.  For more information, visit www.atlantic-supply.com
