The staff wears masks, is friendly and offers help in a non pushy way. There is a plexiglass shield and hand sanitizer at the cash register, the same place they cut keys. I am constantly surprised at the vast array of products they manage to stock. Check it out ! Love this mom & pop style hardware shop adding to the charm on Main St at the Manchester road race starting line. This place is significantly larger than it appears from the front with parking and entrances on main st. and out back. The selection of products is far more than I've expected and ranges from paint to key cutting to lawn care tsalt to any kind of hardware you need. I always hit this place up when I can and can usually avoid home depot and Lowe's. Prices are very comparable too. Love supporting a local business when I can. :)

"The screen door slams, Mary's dress sways Like a vision,…read moreshe dances across the porch as the radio plays" (Bruce Springsteen) We have a three-season sunroom in the back of the house with screens on the windows and sliding door. When that nasty Christmas week windstorm dropped a whole load of tree debris in our backyard, some of it struck the back of the house, and cut holes in a window screen and the slider screen. So we threw the damaged goods into the car and drove them over to Matt at Welden Hardware. Within just a few days, he called us and said the screens were ready to be picked up. They look great and the price was very fair; in fact the job cost just a few bucks under what our homeowner's insurance company allowed on their estimate. Welden is really quite a cool store. We spent some time wandering around when we dropped off the screens and saw a big variety of products -some of which you'd expect to see in a hardware store (electrical, tools, paint, garden equipment) and some surprises, like snowblowers, kitchen supplies, and gloves. Next time you're thnking of driving to one of those big box hardware stores, check out Welden. You'll probably find what you're looking for, and the customer service will be off the charts fantastic.

I took it here, went first to the store part. A friendly woman told me to bring it over to the rental area next door. I told her I just didn't have the strength to get the tire on - she said "Joey can probably do it, he's got bear claws for hands". Took it to Joey with the bear claws, he took it in back, and 5-10 minutes later he came back with the tire on the rim. I thanked him, asked how much and he said " nothing, that's what I'm here for". When I said no, I have to give you something, he said no and started walking in back. I threw some money on the counter because he saved me hours of frustration! Thank you Bear Claw Man!

I brought it here and it was fixed, tuned up, and ready to go in less than 24 hours.They repaired a damaged pipe on the carburetor, replaced the spark plug and a filter, added a quart of oil, cleaned the deck, and replaced the blade. It runs like a racehorse and seems as good as when I fired it up for the frst time seven yeas ago. The cost? Just $98. I couldn't have been happier with the results.
