About Us

Schnarr’s Hardware Company has been serving Ladue and the surrounding communities for fifty years. The Schnarr family started in business by repairing wagons and Model T cars, and sharpening reel lawnmowers when Clayton Road was little more than a country road. Later, Schnarr’s Market was built and customers could order groceries in the morning and have them delivered in time to prepare dinner. In 1960, the grocery store was changed to a hardware store and was shortly thereafter expanded to its’ present size. I went to work for the Schnarrs in 1974, and after 20 years of learning the business, purchased the store from my mentor W. A. (Bill) Schnarr in 1995. We have built our business by listening and responding to our customer’s needs. Please use the contact page of this site to drop me a note. Or better yet, stop in, enjoy a complimentary bag of popcorn, and let us know what we can do for you today.
