I am Rick Gentry , Executive Vice President of Quick$crews® International Corporation. My first fastener job was working in a warehouse for a Nut and Bolt company in 1984. When the company was faced with customer service issues in their will call department, I stepped up. Within one month we dropped from 10-20 complaints a day to 0 complaints. I realized then that I had a natural talent for delivering customers top notch service. I learned as much as I could about the complete line of fasteners that were in existence at the time. In 1988, I was approached by Greg Wiener , founder and current CEO of Quick$crews®, to be the first employee and outside salesman in the company. I learned how wood products were fastened together as well as other fastening methodologies. I have been directly involved with the launch of each different product line that Quick$crews® offers today.  My travels have taken me to thousands of cabinet shops in over 30 states, as well as Canada and Mexico .

I know what works and what does not work in all woodworking applications. I am involved in our R&D department which is always keeping up with the newest hardware developments and what fasteners are needed for those applications. I am available for consultation at any time to help solve your fastener problems.

My name is Chuck Lilly and I am the most recent addition to the team. I have been extremely fortunate to gain my experience from working with leaders in the construction and woodworking industry. In 1983 I was a product specialist for an international construction fastener manufacturer, where I provided tools and fasteners to the Midwest contractors. Within my ten years of success, I provided my customers with the most updated information and product knowledge that would allow them to complete their jobs ahead of schedule, and below budget.

In 1993 I made the transition to the Woodworking Industry. Working for a leading functional hardware manufacturer I covered the eastern half of North America. I traveled throughout that area of the United States and Canada as a Regional Sales Manager my product and application knowledge made me a strong resource for all my customers.

I was able to take my experience in 2002 and develop an import company that supplied functional hardware and cabinet fasteners to the largest distributors within the U.S. market. I traveled the world sourcing and understanding the importing business. During these travels I learned the importance of providing a consistently high quality product that customers can rely on from application to application. I also learned that the true cost of the product is not only what you see on the invoice! Quick$crews® International Corporation is based on years of industry experience, market knowledge and importing excellence. Their product offering and innovation have made them the leader of the industry. That is why I am with Quick$crews®! My area of responsibility is the Midwest and I am ready and looking forward to be your premier fastener resource for you and your company.

I am Stuart (Stu) Zins, Sales Consultant at Quick$crews® International Corporation.  My first job in the woodworking industry was in 1983, starting out as an apprentice cabinetmaker. Over the next 7 years I worked my way up to Journeyman. In 1989 I joined Quick$crews® and began my understudy journey in what became a lengthy education in all skills ranging from warehouse operations to worldwide purchasing. Since being with the company I have done almost every job there is to do here. My work has taken me to many cabinet shops and trade shows around the country, as well as on several trips to Taiwan to meet and negotiate with our screw manufacturers.

 Now that I’m back in sales, I know I can draw from my unique and valuable experience to benefit our customers.  I know how screws are made and I know how cabinets are made. I know which screws to recommend for every woodworking application.  Actually, when it comes to woodworking applications and fasteners, there is very little I do not know.  I am available to you for consultation about your fastener needs.
