Vikas Paint & Hardware Store

If you look for us in Shalimar Bagh, you will find Vikas Paint & Hardware Store at AG-557. The shop is full of cans of paint and all sorts of tools. It smells like chemicals and fresh metal most of the time. We have stuff stacked up to the ceiling because the space is small. Dealing with hardware means getting your hands dirty. We spend the day mixing colors for people or finding that one specific screw someone needs. AG-557 is easy to spot once you are on the right block. Customers come in and talk about their home repairs. It’s a lot of manual work, moving heavy buckets around and checking the stock. We don't have a fancy showroom. It is just a shop with shelves that are maybe a bit too crowded. Sometimes we lose track of where a certain wrench is, but we find it eventually. The floor always has some dust on it from the cement bags. We open up early and stay till the evening. It is a local place, so we see the same faces from around Shalimar Bagh quite often. People know they can just walk in and ask what we have. We keep things basic. No big speeches or anything, just hardware and paint sold from our counter. It gets hot in the summer with all those metal items around, but we manage just fine. There is always someone here to help find whatever tool is missing from your box.
