Converting Fortify Building Solutions Storefront Locations to Mueller
The transition is designed to create a more consistent customer experience across retail locations while supporting operational efficiency, brand clarity and long-term growth for Cornerstone Building Brands’ Metal Solutions business.
Mueller has been a trusted name in metal building solutions for more than 90 years. Part of Cornerstone Building Brands’ portfolio of leading exterior product brands, Mueller stores are open to the public, serving property owners and contractors across the country through in-house manufacturing, a growing retail network and the personalized, hands-on guidance customers have relied on for generations. Customers in all Mueller locations will continue to have access to project support and a full range of products for metal building and roofing projects, including solutions such as Hypersteel® cold-formed buildings, Simplisteel™ rigid frame buildings and more.
“By converting Fortify Building Solutions stores to Mueller, we’re strengthening brand recognition and extending the benefit of an over 90-year legacy to every customer interaction,” said Rayome Soupiset, General Manager of the Retail Direct division at Cornerstone Building Brands. “For contractors, builders and property owners, this transition creates a more consistent retail experience backed by the product quality, service and practical expertise they expect from our teams.”
Connecting Customers to Mueller Products, Service and Support
As part of this strategy, Cornerstone Building Brands also plans to open two new Mueller locations in Nashville, Tenn., and Denton, Texas between late 2026 and early 2027. The Denton location will debut a reimagined showroom experience featuring product displays, interactive digital elements and a welcoming environment designed to help contractors, builders and property owners explore products, compare options and move projects from planning to execution more efficiently.
“Unifying our retail network under Mueller is part of a broader strategy to strengthen the customer experience while supporting more consistent, efficient growth across our Metal Solutions business,” said Matt Ackley, President of Metal Solutions at Cornerstone Building Brands. “Backed by our nationwide Metal Solutions network of more than 100 manufacturing facilities and branches, Mueller has the scale and expertise needed to deliver consistent quality and service while creating a more connected experience in-store, online and over the phone so customers can move from concept to completion with greater confidence.”
