Independent by choice.
Neighborly by nature.
We're the West's largest independently owned family of hardware stores — and we still run every one like it's the only one in town.
Big enough to stock it. Small enough to know you.
South Fork Hardware began in Morgan, Utah, with a simple idea: small-town hardware stores are worth keeping. Rather than replace beloved local shops, we bring them into the South Fork family — keeping the people, the character and the community ties, while giving each store the buying power of a regional group.
Take Sandpoint, Idaho. Lee and Terry Merwin ran the hardware store at 201 N. Third Ave. starting in 1960. When they were ready to retire, the store joined South Fork — and it still sells single nails, keeps a pet department, and greets regulars by name.
That's the South Fork way, from the Idaho panhandle to the Wasatch Back.
Service, selection & satisfaction.
Service
Knowledgeable people on the floor who'll walk you to the aisle — and tell you if you need a different part.
Selection
Deep inventory chosen for the way people live here: snow, sprinklers, livestock, cabins and backyard barbecues.
Satisfaction
A clear return policy honored at any South Fork store, and folks who'll make it right.
