Sardar Ayub Hardware Store

I hope you all are fine and fealing good today. I am heppy to joen Steemit Challenge Season 27 Week 2 undar the Steem Atlas Project. This week is about reviewing hardware stores, so I decided to visit a local one in my area called Sardar Ayub Hardware Shop. It is in Umarzai, Charsadda. The shop is not very big but full with every hardware item you can imagine. The inside atmosphere was nice and peaceful. I really liked how everything was set in small space but still easy to find.

Nails Section

^{NAILS SECTION}

When I entered the shop the first thing that caught my eyes was the nails section. There were all kinds of nails from small to large size. All kept in small boxes and jars in good order. The shine of iron nails looked beautiful. The owner told me which one is good for wood work and which one for wall use. Prices were also fair and better than city shops. Even though the shop is small but the quality of every item looked fine.

Paint and Color Spray Area

^{PAINT & COLER}

Next I moved to the paint section which was very colorful. Different tins of paint were arranged on racks red blue green yellow and many more shades. There were also color sprays kept on one side. The smell of paint was strong but it felt clean. The owner said these paints come from good local brands. People from all nearby areas buy from here. I liked this part because it shows the shop is full of colors and life even in a small village place.

Electric Tools and Wires

^{ELECTRIC SCALES etc}

After that I looked at the electric side. There were many items like wires bulbs and an electric scale. Some measuring tools also kept there. The section was a little messy but still easy to find what you need. The owner explained which wire is for light work and which is for heavy use. He was very kind and helpful. I think this part shows how he try to make sure every customer gets the right thing for their need.

Wapers Screws and Nuts

^{SCREW NUTS etc}

Then I saw a shelf full of wapers screws and nuts. Small boxes were filled with these little metal pieces. Some new and some a bit old but all useful. The owner told me most people come only for these small things. Prices were low and reasonable compared to other stores. I liked the way he kept everything close together so it’s easy to find. The shop may be simple but you can get anything you need for fixing or repairing.

Building Wire Bundles

^{WIRE BUNDLES}

In the next part brown and black wire bundles were lying together. These are used by builders to level walls during construction. They were tied and placed in a clean corner. The owner said many masons and workers buy them from his shop. The wires looked strong and durable. I was surprised how neatly he managed so much stuff in a limited space. It’s really a good place for anyone working in building field.

Wapers and Parrot Cage

One of the most interesting things I found was a parrot cage made of silver wire Beside it some metal nets were kept. I didn’t expect to see bird cages in a hardware store but this shop had them too. The cage was strong and looked perfect for small birds. The owner said sometimes people order custom cages and he arranges them. This shows he cares about different needs of people not only construction or electric items.

Pipes and Hangers

^{PIPES AND HANGERS}

Then I saw the pipe section. There were plastic pipes and beside them hangers used for hanging clothes. The pipes looked clean and shiny. The owner told me they are used for water systems in homes and small building projects. I liked how he arranged pipes of different sizes together. Even in small shop he managed to make everything clear and simple. The atmosphere was peaceful and the owner was very polite.

Farming and Cleening Tooles

^{PARMING TOOLS}

In the last corner I found tools for farming and different cleaning brushes. There were brushes for rooms and for outdoor cleaning. The farming tools were kept neatly. I liked this part because it shows how the shop helps both home users and farmers. The brushes were colorful and strong. My visit here was really nice and I felt proud that such a small shop in our village have so many things for daily use.
