       Item 1.   Business

       1(a) General Development of Business.  During 1992, the company acquired
  several businesses for $90.4 million. The acquisitions included Goldblatt
  Tool Co., a manufacturer of masonry, tile and drywall tools; Mail Media
  (Jensen Tools, Inc. and the Direct Safety division), known principally as a
  marketer of precision tool kits and safety equipment through catalog sales;
  American Brush Co., Inc., a U.S. manufacturer of paint brushes and decorator
  tools; and a controlling interest in Tona a.s. Pecky, a major Czech
  manufacturer of mechanics tools.  These transactions were accounted for as
  purchases.  On January 16, 1992, the company exchanged 642,940 shares of
  Common Stock for all of the issued and outstanding common stock of LaBounty
  Manufacturing, Inc., a manufacturer of large hydraulic tools.  This business
  combination was accounted for as a pooling of interests.  <PAGE>
 

       1(b) Industry Segment Information.  Industry segment information on page
  15 of Registrant's Annual Report to shareholders for the year ended January
  2, 1993 is incorporated herein by reference.

       1(c) Narrative Description of Business.  Registrant's operations can be
  classified into three industry segments:  Tools, Hardware and Specialty
  Hardware. 

       Tools.  The Tools segment consists of consumer, industrial and
  engineered tools.  Consumer tools includes hand tools such as measuring
  instruments, planes, hammers, knives, wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers, saws,
  chisels, boring tools, masonry, tile and drywall tools, paint preparation and
  paint application tools and Taylor Rental Corporation, franchisor and
  operator of the nation's largest system of general rental centers for
  do-it-yourselfers and commercial customers.  Industrial tools includes
  industrial and mechanics hand tools, including STANLEY-PROTO  industrial
  tools and MAC  mechanics tools and high-density industrial storage and
  retrieval systems.  Engineered tools includes air tools, hydraulic tools and
  STANLEY-BOSTITCH  fastening tools and fasteners.

       Hardware.  The hardware segment consists of hardware such as hinges,
  hasps, brackets, bolts, closet hardware and organizer systems and other
  shelving, screen and storm door hardware, hardware for sliding, folding and
  pocket doors, residential door hardware, mirrors and mirrored closet doors.  
  <PAGE>

       Specialty Hardware.  The specialty hardware segment consists of
  residential door systems such as original and replacement garage and entry
  doors, power-operated doors and gates and home automation products, including
  garage door openers, electronic controls and other products.

       Competition.  The company competes on the basis of its manufacturing
  capabilities, extensive distribution system and merchandising service, the
  breadth of its product lines, its reputation for product quality, its well-
  known trademarks and its electronic data interchange ("EDI") capabilities. 
  During 1992, the company encouraged its customers to participate in its EDI
  program by paying for the customers' network costs.  The company believes
  that its significant long-term investments have made it an industry leader in
  the utilization of EDI.

       The company encounters active competition in all of its activities from
  both larger and smaller companies that offer the same or similar products and
  services or that produce different products appropriate for the same uses. 
  In 1992, the company's $65 million investment in new equipment and advanced
  business systems resulted in improved manufacturing processes and decreased
  inventories and transaction costs both for the company and its customers.

       In the company's consumer hand tool and consumer hardware businesses, a
  small number of competitors produce a range of products somewhat comparable
  to the company's, but the majority of its competitors compete only with
  respect to one or more individual products within a particular line.  The
  company believes that it is the largest manufacturer of consumer hand tools
  in the world and that it offers the broadest line of such products.  The
company believes that its market position in the U.S. and Canada for consumer <PAGE>
 





  hardware is comparable to or greater than that of its major competitors and
  that it offers the broadest line of hinges and home hardware, which
  represents the most important part of its hardware product sales.  

       In the company's industrial hand tool business in the U.S., the company
  believes that it is the leading manufacturer of high-density industrial
  storage and retrieval systems.  In the company's engineered hand tool
  business in the U.S., the company believes that it is the leader in the
  manufacture and sale of pneumatic fastening tools and related fasteners to
  professional contractors and to the furniture and pallet industries as well
  as the leading manufacturer of portable and mounted hydraulic tools. 

       In the company's non-consumer hardware business in the U.S., the company
  believes that it is the leading manufacturer of residential and architectural
  hardware products, mirrored closet doors and hardware for sliding, folding
  and pocket doors; a leading manufacturer of screen and storm door hardware; 

  <PAGE>
  and a leading supplier of closet rods, supports, brackets and wall mirrors.

       In the company's specialty hardware business, the company believes that
  it is a leader in the U.S. with respect to the manufacture and sale of
  insulated steel residential entry doors, insulated steel garage doors, garage
  door openers and automatic sliding and swinging doors and gate openers for
  commercial and industrial use.
      
       Customers.  A substantial portion of the company's products are sold
  through home centers in the U.S.  The loss of some of the larger home centers
  as customers could have a material adverse effect on the company's hardware
  and specialty hardware segments until either such customers are replaced or
  the company makes the necessary adjustments to compensate for the loss of
  business.

       Raw Materials.  The company's products are manufactured primarily of
  steel and other metals, although some are of wood or plastic.  The raw
  materials required are available from a number of sources at competitive
  prices.  The company does not purchase a significant amount of its supplies
  under long-term contracts.  However, it has relationships of long standing
  with many of its suppliers. The company has experienced no difficulties in
  obtaining supplies in recent periods.  

       Backlog.  At February 6, 1993, the company had approximately $126
  million in unfilled orders compared to $122 million in unfilled orders at
  February 1, 1992.  All these orders are reasonably expected to be filled
  within the current fiscal year. The company produces primarily for inventory,
  rather than to fill specific orders, and thus most orders are filled from
  inventories.  

       Patents and Trademarks.  No segment of Registrant's business is
  dependent, to any significant degree, on patents, licenses, franchises or
  concessions.  The company owns numerous patents, none of which are material
  to the company's operations as a whole.  These patents expire from time to
  time over the next 17 years.  The company holds licenses, franchises and
  concessions, none of which individually or in the aggregate is material to <PAGE>
 
  the company's operations as a whole.  These licenses, franchises and
  concessions vary in duration from one to 17 years.

       The company has numerous trademarks that are utilized in its businesses
  worldwide.  The STANLEY  and STANLEY (in a notched rectangle)  trademarks are
  material to all three business segments.  These well-known trademarks enjoy a
  reputation for excellence.  In addition, each of the three business segments
  has other trademarks, the loss of which might have a material adverse effect
  on its business.  In the Tools segment, the loss of any of the Bostitch , 
  <PAGE>

  Powerlock , Tape Rule Case Design (Powerlock) , MAC Tools , MAC Quality
  Tools , Proto , Blackhawk , LaBounty , Goldblatt , Jensen , Collins 
  (particularly in Latin America), Taylor Rental  or Vidmar  trademarks might
  have a material adverse effect.  In the Hardware segment, the loss of either
  of the Acme  or Monarch  trademarks and in the Specialty Hardware segment the
  loss of the Magic Door  trademark might have a material adverse effect on the
  respective segment.

       Research and Development.  During the 1992 fiscal year, the company
  spent approximately $15.2 million on research activities compared to
  approximately $13.9 million in 1991 and $14.6 million in 1990.

       Environmental Regulations.  The company anticipates that compliance with
  federal, state and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials
  into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the
  environment will not have a material effect upon the capital expenditures,
  earnings and competitive position of the Registrant and its subsidiaries.

       Power-generating Subsidiary.  Under the General Statutes of Connecticut,
  the company is deemed to be a "holding company" as a result of its being the
  sole shareholder of Farmington River Power Co., a power-generating subsidiary
  of the company since 1916.  Under such statute, no organization or person may
  take any action to acquire control of such a holding company without the
  prior approval of the Connecticut Department of Public Utility Control.

       Employees.  During 1992, the company had an average of 18,650 employees,
  approximately 12,145 of whom were employed in the U.S.  Of these U.S.
  employees, approximately 23% are covered by collective bargaining agreements
  with approximately 12 labor unions.  The large majority of the company's
  hourly- and weekly-paid employees outside the U.S. are covered by collective
  bargaining agreements.  Approximately 1,200 of the hourly-paid production and
  maintenance employees who are employed by the company's operations in New
  Britain, Connecticut are covered by agreements with the International
  Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers that expire in May 1994.  The
  balance of the company's labor agreements expire in 1993, 1994, 1995 and
  1996.  There have been no significant interruptions or curtailments of the
  company's operations in recent years due to labor disputes.  The company
  believes that its relationship with its employees is good.
