ironmonger
British hardware seller
An ironmonger is a dealer in hardware—tools, nails, hinges, and other metal goods.
The term is primarily British; Americans would say hardware store owner or simply go to the hardware store.
The ironmonger helped me find the right screws for the job.
The shop itself is an ironmonger's or ironmongery.
