This is the local hardware store in my neighborhood. It is located at 269 Schenectady Ave. in Brooklyn, New York. This store’s specialties are plumbing supplies and accessories, paint (Pratt & Lambert), and some home electrical supplies as well. The staff was somewhat helpful but they certainly were not experts. They told me that the store is family owned and operated. One employee remained on his phone using FaceTime for the whole time I was there.
Finding most things inside of the store was rather easy, items were mainly grouped according to purpose. The store is fairly easy to spot from the street however, they are limited on space inside and that can be an annoyance at times. There isn’t a large selection of tools in stock there but they do have some masonry tools and equipment in addition to paint, plumbing, and electrical tools. All in all, this is a solid and reliable local shop that carries the tools and supplies that are most needed for the work being done in the neighborhood around them, but it’s not exactly anything special or out of the ordinary.
