Bolt Depot began as a family owned hardware store in the 1940's. Due to the number of garages and fishing vessels nearby, it had a strong focus on marine and automotive fasteners. The store earned a reputation on the South Shore of Boston for stocking an unusually wide variety of nuts and bolts. Today Bolt Depot is an internet fastener retailer. In the tradition of the old hardware store, Bolt Depot maintains its family owned atmosphere and commitment to service while offering our complete catalog of fasteners online. BoltDepot.com is continually updated with new products and more information about fasteners while maintaining the straighforward navigation of the original site, making fastener shopping easy.
