AS5 - or Anton Schneider 5 - is a medium-sized DIY store in Schwanheim with a very good selection…read moreof everything you're likely to need for any home repairs or projects. I first heard of them here on Yelp and was impressed enough by the positive reviews to try it out. They don't have the mega range of crap kitchens and kitschy lamps etc. that you find in the larger stores, but what they do have is good prices and, above all, exceptionally friendly, helpful, skilled non-patronizing staff who go out of their way to help you solve your problem. For this reason alone I would never shop anywhere else for hardware now that I've experienced just this on 3 separate occasions, even though I have to make a detour to get there. Long may they flourish!
