Harshit Glass & Hardware

Harshit Glass & Hardware is situated on Ramleela Maidan Marg in Raisen. We are quite close to the Raisen Main Road, which makes us easy to find if you are in the neighborhood. Our shop is full of exactly what you’d expect from the name—lots of glass panes leaning against the walls and boxes of hardware stacked on the floor. It’s a heavy place, if that makes sense. Everything we deal with has some weight to it, so there is a lot of lifting and careful carrying involved. We have to be especially careful with the glass, so the shop floor is usually kept very clear of any debris that might cause a trip. The atmosphere is pretty relaxed, even when we have a lot to do. Being near Ramleela Maidan means we get to see various events happening throughout the year, which breaks up the routine of our daily labor. Raisen can get very hot in the summer, so the shop stays quite cool because of the concrete walls and the way the building is shaded. We don't have any corporate slogans or polished sales pitches. We just help people find the right hinge or cut a piece of glass to the size they need. It’s a straightforward way to earn a living. Most of us have been working with hardware for years, so we have the calluses to prove it. It’s just a local shop serving the people around the Main Road area.
