Family-Owned Hardware Store Since 1934

Founded by Ben and Lena Rosen on Norfolk Street in 1934, Norfolk began as a small neighborhood hardware store. By listening to our customers and growing with our community, we’ve become a fourth-generation, family-owned business serving Greater Boston for nearly a century. Today, the Norfolk family of brands includes Norfolk Hardware & Home Center, Norfolk Kitchen & Bath, and Norfolk Multifamily. Our name still honors our original location — and we’re proud to continue serving Boston with the same values and dependable support our customers have counted on for generations.

Customer Testimonials

Chelsea

“I don’t think I’m ever going to Home Depot again. This store is incredibly robust with every little thing you might need (from my amateur perspective, but holy cow they have such a variety of tools, equipment, supplies, resources).”

Jadrian

“This place checks ALL the boxes for me. A neighborhood, independent hardware store with a huge, well-organized selection and approachable, friendly, knowledgeable employees! Norfolk Hardware is a gem.”

Sylvianne

“Awesome stock, incredible service every time we go! Such knowledgeable staff. My father who has been a carpenter for the last 50 years says he has never been in such a phenomenal hardware store. Excellent prices as well.”
