For over 40 years, has been providing a space for sourcing household accoutrements, both rich with quality and design.

We believe a door knob is not just a door knob, but instead a handshake of the building it dutifully latches to protect.    Coincidentally, Cabinet Knobs and Pulls may seem mundane or a minor consideration but in fact, our senses deeply rely upon the sure grip and dutiful purpose offered in the single movement of opening a door. -Everyday. All day and all in the blink of an eye. 

Not usually until it breaks, do we take pause to consider how essential hardware is to our everyday lives and overall well being, as it allows us to interact daily within the spaces we live and work, effortlessly.

Knowledgeable and very helpful staff. I wish I found them sooner when I was remodeling my kitchen.

Fascinating collection of lighting fixtures and cabinet hardware. The owner was very helpful - it's a beautiful little space. You need to check it out.

Expert craftsman. Friendly and knowledgeable. They custom built outside lanterns for us in 1977, then restored them in 2016. We also replaced two lanterns that were unable to be restored after 40 years of island weather. Great selection to choose from.
