Goldberg Brothers Inc. was opened in 1897 by Simon Goldberg and his two sons, Louis and Nathan as a tin smith shop in Denver Colorado. Soon afterwards Simon's brothers, William and Jacob joined him and Goldberg Brothers Wholesale Hardware and Tinners Supply became the largest sheet metal and hardware manufacturers in the western United States. Their most famous product line started in 1913 which involved supplying the silent film industry with film reels. In 1940, they signed a license agreement with Eastman Kodak to manufacture film reels sold under the Eastman Kodak Brand. During WWII, they became the major supplier of film reels and related products for the US Army Signal Corps. The company continues today manufacturing top quality film reels and film and film related hardware while also returning to their roots as a household hardware manufacturer selling it's award winning Goldberg Barn Track Sliding Barn Door track hardware kits.
