Pins & Tacks

Small pins and tacks are some of the most useful fasteners in any household toolkit - from securing fabrics and materials in place during work, to fixing lightweight items to walls and boards, to the specialist applications in upholstery and notice board pinning. At the DIY Hardware Store, our pins and tacks range covers drawing pins, map pins, upholstery tacks, panel pins, gimp pins, and cut steel tacks in the sizes needed for everyday household and workshop use.

Drawing pins and map pins are the everyday fastening for notice boards, pinboards, and temporary fixings into soft surfaces. Upholstery tacks and cut steel tacks are the traditional fasteners for securing fabric, webbing, and hessian to timber furniture frames. Panel pins are the fine nails used for fixing thin mouldings, beading, and ply panels in joinery work. Gimp pins finish decorative braid on traditionally upholstered furniture.

Whether you're fitting out a workshop, reupholstering a chair, completing a joinery project, or simply stocking a household toolkit with the small fasteners that always come in useful, the DIY Hardware Store's pins and tacks range has the right type in the right size.
