Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]  
Derivative Instruments Derivative Instruments
Our primary market risk exposures include interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk and commodity pricing risk. We have enterprise-wide risk management policies and limits, approved by our Board of Directors, which govern our market risk management activities. Our objective is to manage our exposure to market risk in accordance with these policies and limits based on prevailing market conditions and long-term expectations.

The Company uses derivative instruments to manage selected foreign currency and interest rate exposures. The Company does not use derivative instruments for speculative trading purposes. All derivative instruments must be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. For derivatives designated as cash flow hedges, the effective portion of changes in the fair value of the derivative is recorded as accumulated other comprehensive gain (loss), or “AOCL,” and is reclassified to earnings when the underlying transaction has an impact on earnings. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the foreign currency forward agreements is reported in foreign currency exchange loss (gain) in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The ineffective portion of changes in the fair value of the interest rate swap agreements is reported in interest expense. For derivatives not designated as cash flow hedges, all changes in market value are recorded as a foreign currency exchange (gain) loss in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations. The cash flow effects of derivatives are reported within net cash provided by operating activities.
The Company is exposed to credit losses in the event of non-performance by the counterparties on its financial instruments. The counterparties have investment grade credit ratings. The Company anticipates that these counterparties will be able to fully satisfy their obligations under the contracts.

The Company's agreements with its counterparties contain provisions pursuant to which the Company could be declared in default of its derivative obligations. As of June 30, 2026, the Company had not posted any collateral related to these agreements. If the Company had breached any of these provisions as of June 30, 2026, it could have been required to settle its obligations under these agreements at amounts which approximate the June 30, 2026 fair values reflected in the table below. During the three months ended June 30, 2026, the Company was not in default of any of its derivative obligations.

As of June 30, 2026, the Company had no derivatives designated as net investments or fair value hedges in accordance with ASC 815, "Derivatives and Hedging."

The Company has a cross currency swap agreement that is designated as a cash flow hedge to hedge changes in the value of an intercompany loan to a foreign subsidiary due to changes in foreign exchange rates. This intercompany loan is related to the acquisition of STAHL. As of June 30, 2026, the notional amount of this derivative is $44,703,000, and this contract matures on March 31, 2028. From its June 30, 2026 balance of AOCL, the Company expects to reclassify approximately $1,025,000 out of AOCL, and into foreign currency exchange loss (gain), during the next 12 months based on the contractual payments due under this intercompany loan.

The Company has foreign currency forward agreements that are designated as cash flow hedges to hedge a portion of forecasted inventory purchases denominated in foreign currencies. As of June 30, 2026, the notional amount of those derivatives was $6,462,000, and all contracts mature by June 30, 2027. From its June 30, 2026 balance of AOCL, the Company expects to reclassify approximately $14,000 out of AOCL during the next 12 months based on the expected payments for the goods purchased.

The Company's interest rate swap agreements are designated as cash flow hedges to hedge changes in interest expense due to changes in the interest rate of the Company's variable interest rate debt. The Company has eleven outstanding interest rate swap agreements in which the Company receives interest at a variable rate and pays interest at a fixed rate. The interest rate swaps have varying maturity dates between March 31, 2027 and March 31, 2031, with an aggregate notional amount of $965,000,000 as of June 30, 2026.

The effective portion of the changes in fair values of the interest rate swaps is reported in AOCL and will be reclassified to interest expense over the life of the swap agreements. From its June 30, 2026 balance of AOCL, the Company expects to reclassify approximately $1,799,000 of AOCL into interest and debt expense during the next 12 months.
