About Us

After 157 Years, W.S. Jenks & Son has earned the reputation as “Washington's Oldest Hardware Store” and is the finest in hardware, paints, industrial, woodworking, contractor, and government sales.

Whether the order was placed in person, by Mr. Morse's telegraph, Mr. Bell's telephone, or today's internet, we have always enjoyed a commitment to efficiently taking care of our customers.

As the world rapidly changes around us, we look forward to changing with it, all while maintaining the core values that have kept us in business for parts of three centuries. At Jenks, providing customers prompt, personal service and attention will never be outdated.

With over 100,000 items in stock, we can handle all of your tool, hardware, and home improvement needs.
