Reviving Tradition: Early American Iron Hardware for Authentic Restoration and Rustic Design

Step back in time. Forge forward with purpose.
Choose Old West Iron for timeless hardware built to honor the past — and outlast the future.

In a time when craftsmanship meant survival and every piece of hardware was made by hand, Early American ironwork helped define the character of homes, barns, and buildings across the frontier. At Old West Iron, we’ve carried that legacy forward with our Early American Iron Hardware Collection — a line inspired by the utilitarian beauty and rugged integrity of 18th and 19th-century blacksmithing.

Whether you’re restoring a historic home, building a traditional post-and-beam structure, or designing a rustic interior with period-correct details, this collection offers hardware that doesn’t just look old — it’s made the old way.

Honoring Heritage Through Iron

Our Early American hardware is hand-forged using techniques that mirror the blacksmith shops of colonial America. No two pieces are exactly alike — each bolt, hinge, or strap bears the subtle marks of the forge, giving it the texture, heft, and patina that only real iron can offer.

From early-style strap hinges and clavos to vintage-inspired lag screws, square head bolts, and beam straps, these pieces are built to last and made to be seen. With finishes like black, raw iron, rust patina, and beeswax, you can match your hardware to the tone and time period of your project.

Hardware with Soul

In the Early American era, iron wasn’t just hardware — it was a lifeline. Hinges held barn doors that protected livestock. Bolts secured homes against harsh winters. Nails and fasteners kept furniture intact for generations. That same strength and simplicity lives in every piece of hardware we forge today.

Our Early American Iron Hardware isn’t just decorative — it’s functional ironwork with a soul, made in the USA by craftsmen who understand the value of tradition.
