Overview
D Norton & Son is a family-run ironmonger with deep roots in the local community of Oakham, Rutland. Founded by the Norton family, our business has been built on decades of honest service, expert knowledge, and a genuine passion for quality hardware and ironmongery. What began as a modest local trade has grown into a trusted name for homeowners, tradespeople, and businesses across the region — and beyond.
We are proud to carry forward a tradition of personal service that is increasingly rare in today’s retail landscape. When you shop with D Norton & Son, you are not dealing with a faceless corporation you are dealing with people who care deeply about getting things right, who know their products inside and out, and who are always ready to go the extra mile for their customers.
Our Story
As a traditional ironmonger, D Norton & Son stocks a comprehensive range of hardware, tools, fixings, ironmongery, and home improvement products. Whether you are a professional tradesperson looking for reliable tools, a homeowner tackling a DIY project, or a business in need of bulk supplies, we have the expertise and the stock to help you get the job done.
Our product range covers everything from hand tools, power tool accessories, locks, hinges, and fixings, to specialist ironmongery, garden hardware, and general building supplies. If you cannot find what you need, just ask — we are always happy to help source specific items.
Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is simple: To provide every customer with the right product, at a fair price, backed by knowledgeable and friendly service. We believe that good hardware advice is just as important as the product itself, and we take pride in offering guidance that is practical, honest, and grounded in real-world experience. We are committed to making quality ironmongery accessible to everyone — whether you are shopping online from the comfort of your home or visiting us in store. Our goal is for every customer to leave satisfied, confident that they have made the right choice.
Our vision is to be the first choice for ironmongery and hardware in Rutland and the surrounding areas — both in-store and online. We aim to grow while staying true to the values that have always defined us: quality, trust, expertise, and community. We want D Norton & Son to be a business that future generations are proud to be associated with — as customers, as suppliers, and as part of the local community.
