Hardy Joinery Ltd expands Canberra operations in Fyshwick complex

Hardy Joinery Pty Ltd, headquartered in Wagga Wagga, has opened a large showroom and offices at Wiluna Street Fyshwick to support growth in Canberra. The move follows years of supplying joinery for major projects including Havelock House, the War Memorial, the Academy of Science, Monaro Mall, and both government and private housing. The new site features a 3,500 square foot store with timber, wall boards, doors, and radiata pine mouldings, plus a wide truck loading driveway. Despite the expansion, the company plans additional bulk storage at the rear to meet ongoing demand.

No margin for error in Hardy’s DIY home fittings

OME owners who undertake many house alterations can obtain help from instructional sheets provided with Hardy’s lines. The aluminum windows and doors come with clear installation instructions, enabling skilled owners to fit them themselves. The company also offers kitchen units and wall fixtures with precise, illustrated measurements in enamel or under-coated finishes ready for painting.
