H.C. Jackson founded Jackson’s Hardware in San Rafael in 1964 with a single 4,000-square-foot store and one clear goal: to be the best hardware store in the area.

Sixty-two years later, Jackson’s Hardware is still going strong—proudly serving our local community and customers throughout the Bay Area. We’re the hardware store you recommend to friends and family: friendly, knowledgeable, and committed to exceptional service. That service is rooted in our pride as an employee-owned company, where ownership truly matters.
We stock more than 80,000 items to help you find exactly what you need for your project, from hardware essentials to kitchen remodeling supplies. Many of our employee-owners have spent decades in the hardware business, working together as a team to answer nearly any question and solve almost any problem you bring through our doors.
Our company is dedicated to excellence, and our associates take great pride in ownership. We are deeply grateful for your support over the past 62 years and look forward to serving you—and the next generation of customers—for many more to come.

A message from our CEO

I am proud that 100% of our company belongs to our employees. Success is best when it is shared. Jackson’s Hardware is what it is today because of our amazing employee-owners. Their dedication and passion for their work create a strong commitment to providing excellent service to our customers every day. Exceeding our customer’s expectations is our highest priority.

We look forward to seeing you in our store!

Carolyn Emge (President /CEO)
