Zeskind's is a Baltimore hardware store and millwork supplier located in Baltimore City, just inside the 695 Beltway. A family-owned and operated business that focuses on the tradition of personal customer service, Zeskind's offers a full range from contractor grade to custom pieces in all areas of building products.
Sam Zeskind opened Zeskind's Hardware in 1925. His wife Rose and their four daughters lived above the store for several years as Zeskind's grew to become a fixture in the community. Their oldest daughter Miriam married Irvin Miller in 1941, and after his return from WWII, they opened Woodlawn Paint and Hardware. After having two children, Irvin passed away at a young age and the Woodlawn store was sold. In the 1960's, Miriam and Irvin's son Rick worked with his grandfather at Zeskind's. As a teenager, he stocked shelves, repaired windows and screens, and waited on customers.
Zeskind's is proud to provide the highest-quality historic wood windows in Baltimore, Annapolis, or any other historic town in our region. We can duplicate existing wood windows in our custom shop, or we can provide pressure-treated and lifetime warrantied Jeld Wen wood windows that closely match most historic windows. We also offer Sash Replacement kits so you can leave the existing frames and interior/exterior trim in place. Arches, half-rounds and elliptical designs are no problem. We'll help contractors through the approval process, as we are experts in providing specifications and drawings when they are requested.
You may notice our spelling of "mouldings" seems incorrect, but actually this is the Old World or historically correct spelling of the word. We have chosen to keep this spelling as a tribute to the trade. Either spelling is correct, and you will find it used interchangeably in the US and around the world. Regardless of how you spell it, you will find Zeskinds to have a nice selection of mouldings in stock, with a mind-boggling amount of profiles available in just a few days. In addition, we can custom match any historic wood moulding you might have.
Have you ever noticed that some stairs are extremely creaky, even in a newly renovated home? Conversely, have you ever been to a home where the stairs have a very solid feel and don't make any noise as you step on each tread? This is the difference between a creaky field built stair, and a professionally manufactured set of stairs. The manufacturing of a quality stair system is complicated process that requires special equipment and expert craftsmen. Carpenters building a set of stairs on the jobsite simply cannot achieve the level of precision or the quality of finished product that we provide with our pre-built stair systems.
Interior doors, exterior doors, sliding patio doors, folding door systems and screens. They are the portal to the home and the entryways through we which we move from room to room. The type of door, the materials from which the door has been constructed and the door's measurements must be precise if you hope to achieve the perfect look, feel and function. Let Zeskind's help you find the perfect door to help you complete your next project. Interior doors can add a certain style or flare to a room and they can provide privacy, keep the noise down and provide easy access to closets and storage areas all at the same time.
