Back in 2010/11 I spent a few months managing an apartment building near here. I was in 3rd Ave…read moreHardware at least 3 or 4 days a week, and sometimes 5 or 6. A couple of times I had to make multiple trips in one day. The staff was always professional and helpful, and almost always had what I needed, which is saying a lot since I managed an old 50-unit building that needed a lot of things for a lot of problems. Sometimes I would grab the wrong thing, and it was never a problem bringing it back and exchanging it for the right thing. Sometimes my boss would get a bit behind in paying for it all, and they would gently remind me, and the ol' slumlord would send them a check from Florida. They were cool but firm about it. It seemed to be a situation they'd been through many times before. They have homey touches here - a small tv on the counter that's always showing something. A fridge with Faygo in the can. My favorite thing about 3rd Ave Hardware is the bicycle selection. In the warmer months there's a whole row chained together on the sidewalk out front. Old ten speeds, 70s 3 speeds, cruisers, mountain bikes, etc. But, wait, there's more inside! Another row between the front door and the register and still more up and down the cramped aisles! (3rd Ave Hardware could really use a more spacious locale.) The prices won't break the bank either. I just bought my second bike from there - a green mountain bike from CCM, that Canadian company that makes hockey equipment. It's a pretty sweet bike for $100. My last one was, too. It was an old 70s 3 speed with a big comfy seat and a glistening orange paint job that just looked like candy. Too bad it got ripped off. Oh well, that's life in the D. I won't pack it in, and I'm glad 3rd Ave won't either. I'm only knocking them down one star because of their paint selection. It's lousy and overpriced. Go somewhere else for paint.

Sadly MELVINDALE HARDWARE is closed. Kevin the owner and his wife have decided to sell the store…read more Sales were down since the big box stores, opened up just down the street. Customers who had asked Kevin and his store to help support local teams, stopped shopping there. I think the final nail in the coffin were the numerous roadblocks that virtually cut off his few remaining loyal customers. We have lost something today that cannot be easily replaced.

Great little hardware store in Melvindale, close to Allen Park and Dearborn…read more I worked at a small family owned hardware store when I was in college, so I felt at home as soon as I walked in here. The gentleman behind the counter helped me find what I need right away. Service like this you will not get at a big box store!

Melvindale Hardware is well organized and has just about anything you would need from hardware store.

Being new to the area ,I went to the nearest place I could think of . The owner , Richard Duke , sold me a water heater that was on the sales floor .

True , they don't have some of the things that the big guys have . I,m always satisfied when I visit Dukes . PS If you need an off the wall item , Dukes will likely have it .
