We are a working hardware store located in three historic buildings in downtown Black Mountain, with all the products and services you would expect from a top-of-the-line hardware chain. In addition, we are a traditional general store with a huge variety of items that amaze even long-time customers. We don’t just offer the basics, we carry a number of hard-to-find items — not just in hardware and tools, but also in housewares, toys, and outdoor living. Many of our customers joke “If Town Hardware doesn’t have it, we don’t need it.” Come and see for yourself what an “old timey” hardware and general store looks, smells and feels like.
Here you will find a wide selection for your home, cottage, or vacation remembrance, including wind chimes, cast iron cookware, handcrafted cutting boards, and kitchen treasures. For your personal needs, we have shaving and grooming supplies, soap, salves, and ointments. For the garden, choose from a variety of whimsical garden accessories or practical tools and birding supplies. We also stock necessities such as batteries, cleaning supplies, light bulbs, and brooms. Children of all ages will delight in the variety of traditional games and toys. Radio Flyer wagons, sleds, marbles, diecast cars, spinning tops, balsa gliders, wooden toys and puzzles, yo-yos, metal lunch boxes, and rubber band guns are just a few of the great items you’ll find.
