Cavendish Hardware - The Begining.

Well, that is some of the history - there is so much more to tell and hundreds of images but for the time being that is enough of the reminiscing!

How did Cavendish Hardware start?

It was perhaps a case of being stuck on a job and not having the parts you needed at the time to finish it, that started the ball rolling.

So, it made sense to stock large amounts of items, that would not only benefit our repair company but many other repair companies, throughout the UK and that's how it all started, 20 odd years ago.

As I mentioned in a previous post, one of the first products we stocked in any amount, were Block & Tackle sash balances - BSI 100 Series, take out.

These had been favoured by Avdon, UBM, Ducana etc and a lot of the windows were of an age that balances were starting to fail.

In the early days, these were going out the door, almost every day, to far flung reaches of the UK.

We still carry several thousand of the 100 Series, as well as the tilt versions of the Block & Tackle Balances.

If you are looking for sash balances, of any type - please contact us on sales@cavendish-hardware.co.uk or good old fashioned Fax: 0116 2451545 or you can give us a call on 0116 2742195 or 0116 2741746.
