    What a great neighborhood hardware store that specializes in plumbing supplies. It is one of 4 Chu Supply stores in The Avenues. As many of the other houses in Sunset and Parkside districts, many have original plumping pipes. My mom's house was built in the 20's and we have had that house since the early 70's. The kitchen sink waste pipe was clogging since the waste and water pipe is not at an angle it was a mad rush together to the line to the street. Food was going down faster than it should and water wasn't flowing easliy out anymore. The lines from sink to underground had to be changed - barely anything was getting through. Called the ones closest to my mom's (Great Wall, the one on West Portal, and Chu on Vicente), and each were very helpful by referring to another because they didn't carry ABS pipes in 10 ft increments. The store was straightforward plumping supplies, and they helped Dude find what he needed. I am not sure if they were helpful because they ddn't want you touching everything during this Covid-19 SiP, or that was just their customer service. They knew where everything was, it was helpful to get in and out of there. It's really nice to have a hardware supply stores like these in the neighborhood. Good old fashion supplies, no fluff, nothing fancy. I am glad they are here because there was no way I was going to Home Depot! To wait in lines at HD and its people buying plants and redecorating their homes to keep busy! Ugh, makes me annoyed just thinking about going to HD. So, I was extemely happy to have Chu's close by! Support local! Shop Small! My go to from now on. Chu Supply on Lawton address is listed wrong on Yelp, so I added a photo of the address on their store - and tried changing it on Yelp. It's listed as 3644 Lawton St - but it is 3610 Lawton St, directly across the street from the gas station. Got into a heated disagreement about finding the location, so thanks Yelp for that!! :/ Hopefully, my info will save ya an argument. ha ha

    Horrible!

    Lots of supplies great location and parking, I was not acknowledged for a few min when I walked in they just talked to each other while I stood there which is not a big deal but when I used there bathroom I had to leave a phot and review this is just about the worse bathroom I have ever seen in my life, please clean in ASAP!

    Needed copies of keys made. Fast and at a very affordable price. Much less expensive than the big box hardware stores

    Great price, about 5% less than the big box stores. Hard to find what you need because of the small size. However, staff I very helpful.

    Cathy, the manager, was very helpful when I measured incorrectly for new window screens. The prices were great and the service as well.

    I was desperate and needed to get into an apartment vacated by our tenant right away. I believed…read morethat I had the right key, but wasn't 100% sure bc it wasn't unlocking the deadbolt. (Turned out I had the right key, but the ancient lock was broken). I got a recommendation to use Cole and called them. I had to leave a message and Marc called me back, as promised on the greeting, within the hour. He was wonderful and patiently listened to my sad tale of desperation and woe. Just the calming response I needed. I won't detail all of the back and forth I subjected him to. I will just say he was extremely responsive and helpful and scheduled an appt for me that worked with my schedule. It turns out that I didn't need to use Marc's services - I was able to get in and replace the deadbolt without the need for a locksmith. HOWEVER - if I ever need the services of a locksmith, Marc with Cole Hardware will be my first call.... without hesitation.

    Cole Hardware ( not computer hardware ) has been in business in San Francisco at Cole street for…read moreover 100 years. It has four locations in San Francisco. You want to get an extra keys to the kingdom you can have them made here. You want to build a garden this is the place.

You will also find BBQ grills of all sizes from going to Golden Gate Park for a spontaneous BBQ grill for two or that backyard BBQ grill to feed a squadron. Cole Hardware has you covered if you are indoors or like being outside in the big outdoors. You will find almost anything you need to build , repair or fix any interior and exterior at your place. Cole Hardware the store not a computer hardware device is where you will find homeware supplies and walk inside for a pleasant surprise selling everything from gift certificates to the Cheese Cake Factory and The Pie Company take and bake home pies Grab a grill and some charcoal so you can BBQ beef ,shrimp and chicken thighs then grab a cooler so you can fill it with champagne and wine with lots of ice then you can party during the Summer of Love from Sunset to sunrise
