The ToolShed Hornby is a branch of a New Zealand-owned tools and hardware retailer, offering a genuinely extensive product range for trades professionals and DIY customers alike. From cordless power tools to hand tools, outdoor equipment and workshop gear, the store is built to cover just about every corner of a well-stocked toolkit.
At the centre of The ToolShed's offering is its cordless power tool range, stocking major brands including DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, HiKOKI and Metabo. This spans everything from bare tools and combo kits to batteries, chargers and laser levels, giving tradespeople the flexibility to build out a cordless system around their preferred brand. Beyond cordless tools, the store also carries a broad general power tools range covering drills, grinders, saws, sanders and routers, plus air tools and compressors for jobs requiring pneumatic equipment.
For more traditional tool needs, The ToolShed stocks a wide hand tools selection, including saws, hammers, pliers, wrenches, screwdrivers and socket sets, alongside general accessories, consumables and replacement parts. This mix of hand and power tools means customers can outfit a full toolkit in one visit rather than piecing it together from multiple suppliers.
The ToolShed's outdoor tools range covers chainsaws, mowers, hedge trimmers, water blasters and generators, suited to property maintenance and outdoor projects of all sizes. For more serious workshop setups, the store also carries dedicated workshop tools like drill presses, lathes, welders, bandsaws and grinders/linishers — equipment more commonly found in a dedicated trade or hobbyist workshop than a typical home garage.
Keeping tools organised and protected is just as important as the tools themselves, and The ToolShed carries branded storage systems including DeWalt TOUGHSYSTEM, Milwaukee Packout, Makita MAKPAC, HiKOKI's stackable systems, and Veto Pro Pac bags — giving tradespeople modular, job-site-ready storage options that match their existing tool brand.
Rounding out the range, The ToolShed stocks a full line of safety equipment and clothing, including footwear, gloves, hard hats, hearing and respiratory protection, knee pads, and general workwear. It's a reminder that the store isn't just about the tools themselves, but about equipping customers to use them safely on the job.
Beyond the core tool categories, The ToolShed also offers gift cards and online gift vouchers, making it easy for customers to give the gift of new tools to tradespeople or DIY enthusiasts in their life.
Located at 33 Shands Road in Hornby, Christchurch, The ToolShed Hornby offers local access to this full NZ-owned tool and hardware range, whether customers are outfitting a professional trade kit or tackling their next home project.
