Last week the finishing touches were completed on the remodeling project which was started last fall at Dan’s Our Owen Hardware Store in Owen. These finishing touches, including the removal of the two end windows and replacing them with paneling and two Our Own Hardware signs. The two closed off areas have given additional display space for hardware merchandise. The remodeling project was stated in September of 1976 and progressed through the fall and winter. First the ceiling was raised to the second floor ceiling and a balcony was place around the second floor, where furniture is displayed. Then a second entrance was opened through the back with two glass doors. The middle stairway was taken out and a stairway to the basement was reopened from from the rear of the store.

Dan has increased his hardware inventory and expanded the floor space on the first floor for displaying the hardware merchandise.

Stating this week and running until May 7th, Dan’s will hold an open house to invite the public to see the new look the facility has taken on during the past months.

Look for Dan’s Open House ad in the Owen Enterprise section of this week’s Searchlight.
