Työkaluliike

Työkaluliike is a Finnish term that translates to "tool shop" or "hardware store." These establishments are retail businesses that sell a wide variety of tools, hardware, and related products for professional tradespeople, DIY enthusiasts, and homeowners. The inventory typically includes hand tools such as hammers, screwdrivers, wrenches, and saws, as well as power tools like drills, saws, and sanders.

In addition to tools, työkaluliikkeet often stock a range of building materials, fasteners like screws and nails, plumbing and electrical supplies, safety equipment, and painting supplies. Customers can find items for home repairs, renovations, construction projects, and maintenance tasks. Many tool shops also offer specialized equipment for specific trades, such as woodworking, automotive repair, or gardening.

The staff at a työkaluliike are usually knowledgeable about the products they sell and can offer advice on tool selection, usage, and maintenance. Some stores may also provide services such as tool sharpening or repair. These businesses play an important role in local communities by providing essential supplies and expertise for a wide range of projects. They cater to both individual consumers and professional contractors, making them a common sight in both urban and rural Finnish settings.
