Drew's Screws: Loose Screws, Used Screws, New Screws, and Exotic Screws, Screw Supply

Hardware stores come and go, but a true screw specialist stays put. Drew’s Screws: Loose Screws, Used Screws, New Screws, and Exotic Screws, Screw Supply keeps the bins full where others might stock only the basics. It’s the kind of shop that can save a weekend project when the last screw in the box turns out to be the wrong thread.

The address is 70 Lenox Rd, Brooklyn, NY 11226, tucked into a stretch of small suppliers that still serve the neighborhood without fanfare. Walk-ins are common, especially when a local contractor realizes the job needs something beyond the standard Phillips or flathead. The selection leans toward the practical—think brass, stainless, and specialty fasteners—but the real draw is the willingness to dig through drawers for that one odd size.

People call ahead when they’re not sure what they need; the number is handy for quick questions about thread pitch or material grade. A short conversation can often replace a trip to three different stores. Exotic screws might sound like an exaggeration, but anyone who’s searched for metric stainless with a left-hand thread knows better. Those are the moments when a place like this becomes essential.

Flatbush Avenue runs nearby, its traffic a steady hum that fades once you turn onto Lenox. The block feels like a quiet holdout, where the focus stays on the task at hand. For directions, the map is here.
