The local hardware store I visit is located at 831 Franklin Av, which is about 4 blocks away from my house. The name of the hardware store is called Three Brothers. The store was a local deli before becoming a hardware store so it is really small. The store don’t really have that many items as far as power tools because it mostly sell small hand tools like Phillips Head screwdriver,tape measure, nuts and bolts and so on. Although the store is small, it sometimes have the items most people liveing the local area needs.the store also make copies for your keys for a decent price if needed. The guys that works there are pretty cool and can help you find what you’re looking for most of the time if the store have or sell it. Although the store may have some of the items you may need, sometimes it’s not the best quality. I remember buying a tape measure for my tech class from three brothers and a few weeks later it didn’t really work so well but hey you get what you pay for. All in all the store is pretty decent for a local hardware store. It’s easy to get there, easy to find and most of the time easy to find what you are looking for inside the store for without asking help. I would recommend the store to anyone but only if you are looking for small working items like hands tools and so on.
You can learn a lot about a neighborhood by seeing the kind of stuff in the local hardware store. I bet if you went through buildings on the block they would all have a lot of the same doorknobs, hinges, and shelf brackets that are sold in that store.
