Overview

Salk’s Hardware & Marine is a family owned and operated retail business. It is a co-op of Ace Hardware specializing in home preservation and pleasure boat supplies. Salk's was founded in Providence, Rhode Island in 1900 and in 1917 the business moved to the Oakland Beach section of Warwick to cater towards the summer vacation community. In 1956 our present location in Warwick opened and evolved from a general store into a dedicated hardware store in the 80's with a large marine department. In 2010 Salk's opened a second location in North Kingstown, RI and in 2019 a third store opened in Seekonk, MA. Our Wakefield location opens in 2020 which provides enough warehouse space to accommodate the business. Salk’s is run by Jeffrey Salk, the fourth generation in the business along with his father Harold and son Adam. We love being a part of our communities and thank you for shopping with us for over 100 years!
