MEDINA, MINNESOTA (AUGUST 3, 2023) — Family-owned Rockler Woodworking and Hardware, one of the nation’s premier retailers of woodworking tools and supplies, is opening its first store in South Carolina in late August, located in Greenville at 1117 Woodruff Road, Suite C. Rockler offers a year-round calendar of hands-on woodworking classes, as well as exclusive lines of hardware, tools, supplies, and innovative products used to build furniture, cabinets, and other woodworking projects. 

The 8,500 square-foot retail location—the Minnesota-based company’s 47th store in the country—will showcase thousands of products, plus a state-of-the-art classroom used for hands-on courses that woodworkers and DIYers of all skill levels can take to learn or enhance their woodworking skills. The classes are led by the store team’s expert woodworkers who can help class participants make items like pens, bowls, cheeseboards, and many other projects that serve as great experiences and gifts. 

“We’re thrilled to introduce ourselves to the Greenville community, where we hope to become a trusted resource for woodworkers and provide the tools and resources they’re looking for to complete their projects,” said Joe Kester, Rockler’s Vice President of Retail. “Whether someone is a veteran woodworker or just starting out, we’ve got the gear and materials they need to tackle most any project, and expert staff on-site to help guide their decisions.”

The Rockler store will feature a Hardwood Lumber Outlet, a specialty space designed to make shopping for hardwood lumber more consumer friendly. The lumber outlet includes a wide selection of boards, slabs, plywood, veneer and turning blanks suitable for quality woodworking and DIY projects. Rockler’s knowledgeable lumber experts can help customers plan their materials list and select the right species and size, plus cut boards to length for free.

Rockler is known for its line of innovative woodworking tools that make woodworking easier, safer, and more accurate. Rockler has developed more than 1,000 unique products for woodworkers and routinely introduces new tools, jigs, hardware, and workshop fixtures.  

Shoppers will also find the top power tool brands in woodworking, including Festool, SawStop, Laguna, Powermatic, JET and many more. Most of the staff are accomplished woodworkers who can help shoppers find everything they need for their shops and projects.
