Fasteners

At Old West Iron, we design and forge fasteners that go far beyond basic hardware. Each piece is crafted or finished by American blacksmiths in Idaho, using time-honored techniques that give our products the authentic weight, texture, and character found in antique ironwork. We offer one of the largest selections of decorative, structural, and specialty fasteners available — made to serve craftsmen, builders, and restorers who demand more than mass-produced hardware can offer.

Decorative Door Studs & Clavos

Our collection includes over a dozen styles of decorative door studs, ranging from petite 3/8" heads to bold 2" statement pieces. Every clavo can be finished in any of our patina options — from deep blacks to warm, naturally aged tones — allowing you to match new hardware to historic doors, cabinetry, gates, and furniture.

Wood Screws for Fine Furniture & Historic Work

We offer a wide selection of decorative wood screws, including round slotted heads, square pyramid heads, and specialty shapes sized from #3 to 1/4". These screws combine everyday utility with period-inspired styling, making them ideal for heritage builds, cabinetry, restoration work, and custom woodworking.

Square Head Lags: A Customer Favorite

Our square head lag bolts remain one of our most requested fasteners. Offered in smooth, hammered, and our signature hand-hammered pyramid head, these lags add rustic authenticity to timber beams, barn doors, iron straps, mantels, and other architectural projects. Available in diameters from 1/4" up to a heavy 3/4", each lag can be finished in any patina to perfectly coordinate with your build.

Machine Bolts, Decorative Nuts & Specialty Cap Nuts

Our line of machine-threaded bolts pairs with our range of decorative nuts — including hammered and smooth square nuts, hammered acorn nuts, and the hard-to-find square cap and pyramid cap nuts. These pieces bring handcrafted detail to mechanical fittings, exposed joinery, and restoration hardware where style matters just as much as function.

Decorative Washers & Custom Options

We offer an extensive array of decorative washers, from round to square designs in sizes ranging from 1¼" to 6". Plate washers can be customized with any size center hole, and USS washers — standard in black — can be finished in any patina to match your chosen fasteners. Whether you’re assembling timber trusses, crafting furniture, or completing a custom iron project, our washers are built to perform and made to be seen.
