Family Hardware Store Serving the Residents of Plymouth and the Surrounding Areas

Do you need a friendly, local hardware store that caters for everything from adhesives to hinges, locks, timber and key cutting?

The Cabinet Supplies is a family run business that has passed through three generations. We are now celebrating 85 years of providing the local community with all of their hardware needs.

We are a hardware store based in Union Street, Plymouth, and have been open since 1928 when Wolfe Sterne, originally from Wales, decided against his plan of immigrating to America and chose to set up his own business instead.

Wolfe's grandson Dave Sterne, aged 53, now runs the shop after taking over from his father Maurice. Nephew Chris Braine, aged 28, also works in the shop and is the fourth generation of the family employed there.

What sets us apart from our big time competitors?

The Cabinet Supplies have specialist knowledge that some of the large stores just don't have.

We have such a large and varied selection of hardware related stock that you are bound to find what you are looking for. However, if you are having trouble locating an item, the combined knowledge in our store is second to none and we will advise you to the best of our knowledge.

We cater to our local community, with people in the dockyards still calling us to ask for items that ceased being produced 20 years ago. We still know what they are referring to. Even the large stores send customers to Cabinet Supplies when they do not have something themselves, as they know the family business has an intricate selection of tools and parts.

Ever changing to suit the needs of the customer, our store has expanded over the years in terms of what it sells. We now stock building and decorating tools, basic electrical items as well as providing a key cutting service and a timber yard.
