Built on Craftsmanship. Driven by Community.

Established in 1993 by Bruce Behning, Behning Tool has spent more than three decades earning the trust of tradespeople across the South Shore. What began as a small, family-owned repair shop in Hanover, MA has grown into a fixture in the community, known for honest workmanship, practical know-how, and an unwavering commitment to helping customers get the job done right.

From the start, Bruce built Behning Tool on simple principles: do quality work, stand behind every repair, and treat customers like neighbors, not numbers. Over the years, those values turned first-time visitors into long-time regulars, contractors, builders, and DIYers alike who rely on Behning Tool for everything from quick fixes to heavy-duty repairs.

In 2024, ownership passed to Matt McIver, a lifelong tradesman and former loyal customer. Growing up in Pembroke, MA, Matt has been around tools and job sites for as long as he can remember. His deep understanding of the trades and genuine connection to the local community made him a natural fit to carry Bruce’s legacy forward. Matt is excited to combine that strong tradition of skilled service with new ideas that help the business grow while never compromising on quality or care.
