"Incredible shop and service. I went in to get a replacement screw that even the manufacturer of the item didn’t seem to know how to replace. In this shop they identified the right replacement pretty much straight away."

Patrick Sedgwick

"A compendium of ironmongery: thousands of items ranging from screws and hinges to doorknobs and tools. Nothing much has changed about this shop's old-fashioned layout and enormous variety of stock since World War 2 and that's a good thing — it's still run with knowledgeable dedication by members of the same family that founded it in 1944. A great community asset — wonderful that it's still here."

"These guys are legends. Any screws, bolts, clamps, locks your need, this is the place to be. A really great benefit to our local community and well priced!"

Nicholas Whyman

"This is one of my favourite places, staff are really helpful and it's usually got what you need and some stuff you didn't know you needed, as long as nuts bolts handles and latches are your thing.

This is a gem of a shop and a retail experience which is sadly becoming endangered. Please visit"

"Needed an unusual gate latch catch. Searched all major DIY shops and hardware shops on my doorstep and then I remembered Wakefield from having shopped specialist items with them a few years ago. Item required confirmed as in stock by picture message and just collected this item that even internet retailers struggled to source. Happy customer!"
