On the shelf and ready for the toolbox

WITH over 50 years combined experience in industrial fasteners, co-proprietors Dean Jones and Mark Shanahan have formed a solid base to provide their customers with the best possible service, support and assurance along with a second-to-none range of products meeting the needs of customers across multiple industries.

With the support and backing of Construction Supply Specialists (CSS) from the start, Ultimate Fasteners have been able to acquire an exceptional range of products, passing on not only competitive pricing to their client base but quality assurance as well.

“We’ve not only forged relationships across the journey of our business, but we’ve also gone with reputable brands and ones that make sense with a strong backing in the marketplace like your Bremick and Hobson in your fasteners game to the Bordo and Sutton in the drilling products.

We’ve got your Saint-Gobain and

Flexovit abrasives and then all your top tier tools in Kincrome, Tridon, Milwaukee, Apex, IPACT-A, Sheffield blades and beyond. We’re just very diverse,” said Dean.

In the Ultimate Fasteners toolbox, you’ll find:

• Hex bolts in mild steel and high tensile strength

• Dynabolts

• Self-drilling screws and rivets

• Washers

• Screwbolts

• High-load bolt fixings

• Chemical anchoring solutions

• Grinding wheels

• Flap wheels

• Bonded abrasives

• Drills

• Hole cutters

• Taps and dies for various applications

• Safety gear

• Hand tools

• Power tools

• and more...

AS you enter Ultimate Fasteners’ impressive and well laid out new building you are not only dazzled by the sheer range of product set-out before you, but you are also struck by the friendly, professional camaraderie of staff as they swiftly move to assist you.

Though good-natured banter amongst the staff creates a welcoming atmosphere, it is also clear that Dean and Mark’s staff enjoy their work, with many employees having been employed by the thriving business for many years.

Two such long term, standout employees are Anthony Clarke, the man behind the scenes in sales and dispatch for over eleven years and sales representative Tony Andronaco who has been taking the company to the road, meeting customers all over the state for eight years.

With an experienced team of professionals in accounts and administration, skilled and efficient co-workers in inwards and outwards goods, dispatch and deliveries as well as knowledgeable and friendly sales assistants, it's easy to see why Ultimate Fasteners has not only grown rapidly in a short time, but why it is has earned a name for itself for providing exceptional customer service.

The hardworking and dedicated leadership of assistant manager Grant Casey is replicated in co-owners Mark Shanahan and Dean Jones who are clearly highly regarded by their staff, if the profusion of positive, good-humoured comments are anything to go by.
