Several weeks ago, my mom needed a new door handle for one of her French doors. She needed only the…read morehandle, not both sides and with the lock. Everywhere we looked, she had to buy the whole thing for over $200. However, when I walked into Rings End, I was approached by Sam who was very friendly, professional and knowledgeable. After searching his own back room and not finding anything, he made some calls. I had to run, so I left him my number and he called me back at 8 a.m. the next morning to let me know he had found just the handle for $40! He then called me a couple of days later when it had arrived and I went into the store to pick it up. Sam went above and beyond for a $40 purchase when I know the store makes its real money from the local general contractors. Thank you Sam!

If you want to match a color sample go somewhere else! I'm…read morewriting this review because this is the third and last time they messed up the color match. I recently brought in a sample to match of a white color in a very expensive European Paint. Now I did approve the sample but I am no color expert the wet paint does not show the true color. when I used the paint for touch ups it was not even close. I went to back to the store after I called and the owner said they would make the paint match better. However when I got there they insisted I show them the original sample and when I told them I didn't have it the employees quickly became defensive and rude. When the manager of the store came over he was even more rude and flat out refused to fix the color. I will never go to this store ever again!!!

Decided to come back during the week to talk to someone who knew about their products. Waited patiently for about 10 minutes for the customer in front to finish up. I'm up next and I get the same guy from other day. He asks his boss to help me. The boss says do you have an account here. I said no. Then he tells me he has to serve the people with accounts behind me first. Very rude old man. Go to Home Depot or anywhere else. Service sucks there and their prices aren't that great. I would give it no stars if I could.
