About Us
We offer one on one attention that you’re not going to get anywhere else.
We are southern Louisiana family owned since 1982
From the very beginning, Davis Decorative Hardware, formerly Davis Sales Company, was a father-son business. In 1982 John F. “Jack” Davis Jr was an engineer. Bert was selling abrasives and adhesives after he graduated from Milsaps in business. They started out selling sandpaper to cabinet makers in the Baton Rouge area but noticed there was a need for functional products, such as drawer slides and screws.
As the business expanded into southeast Mississippi and New Orleans in the early 2000’s, they then saw a need for quality decorative hardware that could be sold directly to homeowners along with residential and commercial home builders, particularly custom home builders. Selling to custom home builders allows builders to send their clients to one of the showrooms to meet with a design consultant and select the perfect items for their custom-built homes.
Jack passed away in 2016 but he considered the success of Davis Sales Company to be proudest professional achievement. His family and others who were close to him cherish his kindness and especially his sense of humor.

What Our Customers Have To Say
We have strong emotional attachments to them, attachments formed by details you might not even think about a lot.
We interact with hundreds of vendors through our business, and the team at Davis Decorative Hardware is some of the most professional and honest we have dealt with. Our clients feel the same way! It’s so much easier dealing with a local business instead of a big box store.”
“The first few years our business was open we did use big box stores, but we quickly realized the personal customer service and local show rooms are so much easier for our clients to deal with, without getting overwhelmed. Also, it is so much easier to have a new handle set or exterior knob keyed to an existing lock on a homeowner’s residence at Davis, rather than keying it through a big box outlet.

I have been a residential contractor for more than 20 years. I have used Davis Sales for those 20 years and received excellent service. The sales professionals are always helpful, prompt, and detailed. If ever a problem arises (which is very seldom) Rhonda and her staff go the extra mile to make it right. Rhonda Kemp and her sales staff have always been friendly. Because I have received such seamless service I would recommend Davis Sales any day.
Tracy Carroll, Carroll Construction, LLC
We were very pleased with our experience with Davis Decorative Hardware. Walker and Shelby were so professional and helpful with helping us pick out the perfect hardware for all of our cabinets, drawers and doorknobs. The service was excellent! I recommend that if you're looking for high quality, affordable accessories for your home, to check them out.
