    With spacious big-box hardware stores like Home Depot now the norm, entering the cramped, maze-like space of Seven Corners Hardware might be a bit of a shock. But think of it as an adventure, because like a hardware store in Harry Potter's Diagon Alley would, this place can work magic. This year the store celebrates its 75th year in business, and with its thriving store and online business, it certainly has a lot to celebrate. Need to build some shelves? There's a whole floor's worth of power tools and a back area filled with wood scraps. Need to fix a busted sink? This place has enough pipes and tubing to stretch across the city. Completely intimidated by tools? No problem, the staff is incredibly knowledgeable. Perhaps most impressive, bring in a rusty screw or bolt, and some employee will easily find a replacement amid thousands of plastic bins filled with screws, nuts, and bolts, and they'll probably be able to guess what you were using it for.

    As long as Seven Corners Hardware continues to stock 400 different kinds of screwdriver, the minions of the all-seeing Big Box are, in a word, screwed. A small-"s" staple in downtown St. Paul for more than 70 years, Seven Corners is the original warehouse superstore, with shelves and racks towering to the ceiling, proudly displaying every gizmo, doodad, and thingamabob you'll ever need. Want a hammer? Choose from 200 models. Looking for a power tool? Their second-floor showroom--home to... More »

    Forget about hardware stores as sterile and unappealing as Wal-Mart, with their white linoleum and Muzak ambience, not to mention the difficulty of finding a store employee among the vast wasteland of garden hoses. Those who really appreciate the dirty, sweaty, messy, fine art of home improvement expect their hardware stores to feel the same--gritty, oily, and filled with a variety of products to sate the imagination of any plumber, electrician, or drywaller on a rampage. Much like a library... More »

    You could build a bulwark against the strip-mallification of America with what's in stock at Seven Corners Hardware (est. 1933), but you don't have to: The store itself already stands as a dusty, independently owned fortress. Its two stories are crammed with 14-foot-high shelves loaded with just about any tool, part, screw, bolt, belt, hose, or any other accessory you're ever likely to require. Need a hammer? They've got well over 100 in stock. We're talking over 100 models of nail... More »

    Okay, so you have a sudden and unexpected reconstruction project at home. Your toilet has quit on you, and it's pretty crucial that you get the damn thing up and working again (for obvious reasons). So what to do? Do you head on over to one of the mega-mart hardware conglomerates that are so common in that strip-mall region ringing the Twin Towns? After all, bigger most likely means better, right? Wrong. This is a Twin Cities toilet, my friend--installed right about the time IBM was... More »

    We were tempted to give Seven Corners "Best Day Trip." A person could kill an entire afternoon in this super-size emporium, crammed floor to ceiling with every power tool, plumbing fixture, and lighting accessory known to man: leaning towers of WD-40, nail bins three feet deep, a whole wall of gleaming snow shovels. The selection of hammers alone would overwhelm most neighborhood hardware stores (we recommend the 24-ounce "Death Stick"). And gazing at Seven Corners' second floor--which is... More »
