Frequently Asked Questions

What types of powerboards do you stock?

We stock a wide range of powerboards including surge-protected boards, RCD safety switch powerboards, USB charging powerboards, and standard multi-outlet boards from trusted Australian brands like HPM, Jackson, ARLEC, and Ultracharge.

What is the difference between a surge-protected powerboard and a standard powerboard?

A surge-protected powerboard includes built-in circuitry to absorb voltage spikes, protecting connected electronics from damage. A standard powerboard simply provides additional outlets without surge protection. Surge protection is recommended for computers, TVs, and other sensitive devices.

How do digital timer switches work?

Digital timer switches allow you to program specific on/off times for connected appliances. 24-hour timers let you set daily schedules, while 7-day digital timers allow different schedules for each day of the week — ideal for automating lighting, heaters, fans, and irrigation systems.

Are your powerboards and adaptors compliant with Australian standards?

Yes. All powerboards, timers, and adaptors we stock are compliant with Australian electrical safety standards and are suitable for use with standard AU/NZ 3-pin outlets.

Can I use a double adaptor or piggyback adaptor safely?

Double adaptors and piggyback adaptors are safe when used within their rated load capacity. Avoid overloading them with high-draw appliances such as heaters or air conditioners. For heavy-duty use, a surge-protected powerboard is a safer and more practical option.

Goldair 1200W radiant heater

This is an excellent heater. It’s practical, lightweight, easy to use and gives instant warmth as well as being affordable. The level of heat can be adjusted to one, two or all three bars. I highly recommended it. Fan from Double Bay Hardware was incredibly helpful and accomodating. Wonderful customer service. Cheers, Evelin.

Have only used 1, the other is spare as it is difficult to find these globes & the other one will probably blow any day now as they are connected to the same switch. Works as expected.

I ordered two small light bulbs on line as nobody seemed to stock the ones I needed..
They arrived in a day!
It is so gratifying to find a hardware store that genuinely cares about its customers.
I am also glad to see so many positive reviews.
I live in Crows Nest but I will now make a trip to Double Bay just to check these guys out.
I noticed a review by a customer saying that the prices are too high and to go to Rose Bay Bunnings.
O.K. go to Bunnings and try and get some really knowledgeable advice.
Chances are YOU WON'T!
I would rather deal with genuine people in this world who KNOW what they are talking about and that goes for ALL businesses..
