WE'RE MORE THAN JUST AN E-COMMERCE BRAND
Fort Hill Distributors began with a vision rooted in resilience, community, and a love for the outdoors. Our founder, a 16-year U.S. Army and Air Force veteran, combined years of experience in service with a passion for creating products that help people push boundaries, explore freely, and dock safely.
WHY THE
GATOR?
The gator in our logo is more than just a symbol—it’s a nod to resilience, strength, and a bit of Southern grit. Growing up in the Mississippi Delta, our founder, Robert Biedenharn, learned to respect them for their adaptability and toughness. The gator, wearing an Army helmet with a knight insignia, represents our military roots and the enduring spirit of those who press on through any challenge. It’s a reminder that, like the gator, we’re built to last, ready to take on whatever the waters bring, and committed to serving with strength and purpose.
BUY IT NOW
Soft shackles functioned as I was expecting, great and with no problems. I've used them to attach tree savers, shackle to sliders and roll cages, and just to winch when someone has siezed d rings. The protective sheath comes in handy and should protect the rope from any sharp edges should it catch one. Can't beat them for the price .
As a single woman traveler safety is a critical point for me. Just having this in my car emergency kit made me feel so more secure that i bought one for a friend. One thing that stood out for me is that this is a veteran owned company and a portion of their profits is donated to a veteran support program.
The perfect tool to keep in our riding gear for when we get in a tough spot on the trails on the quads. Would HIGHLY recommend this product and company to anyone who off-roads or even in their vehicles for emergencies!
