Patrick Industries, Inc. (the “Registrant”) hereby incorporates by reference into this Registration Statement the following documents previously filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”):

(a) The Registrant’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2006, filed with the Commission on April 2, 2007;

(c) The Registrant’s Current Reports on Form 8-K and Form 8-K/A filed with the Commission on January 31, 2007, March 13, 2007, April 6, 2007, April 11, 2007, May 24, 2007, June 6, 2007, and July 5, 2007; and

(d) The description of the Registrant’s Common Stock and the Preferred Share Purchase Rights contained in its Registration Statement on Form 8-A filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 12 of the 1934 Act.

All documents subsequently filed by Registrant pursuant to Sections 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the 1934 Act, prior to the filing of a post-effective amendment which indicates that all securities offered have been sold or which deregisters all securities then remaining unsold, shall be deemed to be incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement and to be a part hereof from the date of filing of such documents (such documents, and the documents enumerated above, being hereinafter referred to as “Incorporated Documents”); provided, however, that the documents enumerated above or subsequently filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13(a), 13(c), 14 and 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 in each year during which the offering made by this registration statement is in effect prior to the filing with the Commission of the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K covering such year shall not be Incorporated Documents or be incorporated by reference in this registration statement or be a part hereof from and after the filing of such Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Any statement contained in an Incorporated Document shall be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this registration statement to the extent that a statement contained herein or in any other subsequently filed Incorporated Document modifies or supersedes such statement. Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to constitute a part of this registration statement.

Item 4. Description of Securities.

The securities to be offered are registered under Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act.

Item 5. Interests of Named Experts and Counsel.

Not applicable.

Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

- 4 -

The Registrant’s Articles of Incorporation provides that it shall indemnify its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the Indiana Business Corporation Law. The Registrant’s By-laws require the company to indemnify its directors and officers and such provisions require it, among other things, (i) to indemnify officers and directors against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers provided such persons acted in good faith and in a manner reasonably believed to be in the best interests of the Registrant and, with respect to any criminal action, had no cause to believe their conduct was unlawful; (ii) to advance the expenses actually and reasonably incurred by its officers and directors as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified, and (iii) to obtain directors’ and officers’ insurance if available on reasonable terms. The Registrant maintains directors and officers liability insurance covering all directors and officers of the Registrant against claims arising from the performance of their duties. There is no action or proceeding pending or, to our knowledge, threatened which may result in a claim for indemnification by any director, officer, employee or agent.

Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.

Not applicable.

Item 8. Exhibits.

5.1	Opinion of McDermott, Will & Emery, LLP
23.1	Consent of McGladrey & Pullen LLP.
23.2	Consent of Deloitte & Touche LLP.
23.3	Consent of McDermott Will & Emery LLP (included in Exhibit 5.1).
24.1	Power of Attorney (filed as part of signature page).

Item 9. Undertakings

(a) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act;

(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective Registration Statement;

(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement;

provided, however, that paragraphs (1)(i) and (1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in the post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement.

(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

- 5 -

(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(b) The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the Registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
