Hassett Hardware San Mateo

San Mateo Hardware Store

​In a downtown as old and layered as San Mateo, there’s always something that needs fixing, replacing or figuring out. From older homes and apartments to local businesses and restoration projects, our team helps customers find practical solutions for repairs, maintenance and everyday projects.

We’re proud to serve downtown San Mateo and surrounding Peninsula communities with hands-on help, hard-to-find hardware and the kind of neighborhood service that’s getting harder to find.

As part of the Ace Hardware co-op, we combine the buying power and trusted brands of Ace with the hands-on service of a locally owned neighborhood hardware store.

Your Hardware Store in San Mateo

A Long History in San Mateo

Hassett Hardware purchased the historic Wisnom hardware store in 2009, continuing more than a century of hardware service in downtown San Mateo.

The original Wisnom-Bonner Hardware opened in 1905 and served a much smaller San Mateo with everything from horseshoe nails and barbed wire to appliances, fireplaces and automotive supplies. Today, that same spirit of practical problem solving still shapes the store.

Located at the corner of First and Delaware in downtown San Mateo, the store continues to serve homeowners, renters, contractors and local businesses with everyday essentials, repair supplies and knowledgeable help.

Paint, Hardware & Repair Supplies

From quick home repairs to larger renovation projects, we carry paint, plumbing and electrical supplies, fasteners, hand and power tools, hardware essentials and everyday maintenance products for Peninsula homes and businesses.

Our San Mateo store is especially known for hard-to-find hardware, Hillman fasteners, replacement parts and practical repair solutions. If you don’t see what you need, ask. If we don’t have it, we’ll help you find it.
