One of last family owned hardware stores that offers magnificent customer service and high quality products and key duplication services. No place manufacturers duplicate keys with the amount of quality and craftsmanship that Charge Hardware does. They have a nice selection of tools and repair materials that will last a long period of time but perform at peak efficiency. The staff will always go out of their way to assist any customer and answer questions honestly. A rare treasure that I hope and pray continues to remain in business for several generations to come. Attend!!!!!!!!!

This old time hardware store is a gem. It's owner operated. Don't want to have to buy 500 screws at the Home Despot when you only need a few? Go see Paul Chiarugi. You will walk out with a bill under a buck. He cuts keys that always work, He cuts glass and screen, sells paint and brushes. He even sells wine making equipment and makes his own vino. He knows his stuff and is always happy to answer questions about your projects. They also sell Italian pride gear and Taylor Street T-shirts.

This place is fantastic! The man who runs the place has been doing this for 50 years, and he knows what he's doing. I love supporting small businesses le this one because the people are so friendly and they always help you out. If I have any hardware needs, I will definitely be going back! Also, I had a couple of keys copied, and he had them done before I even knew he started. I had a great experience and i highly recommend this store for any and all your hardware needs!

I came in here to get some keys copied as for some reason, both Home Depot and ACE Hardware were unable to copy my keys. The store owners were nothing but kind to me and really took care of me. They were lovely to chat with even outside of condoning business and I can't wait to come back to this hidden gem in order to get my home-working goods from.

Chiarugi Hardware is a great neighborhood hardware store that you can use to get in-and-out quickly for your home improvement runs. Their staff is knowledgeable and friendly, provide advice even if they don't carry some of the items they are recommending in-store. They also duplicate keys which they do really quick.

I was in need of just a nut and bolt and the owner was kind enough to give me the 50¢ in parts for free. I didn't have the cash on me. I will be back here. Not a huge selection, but certainly enough to get quick fixes done around your apartment. Places like this don't exist much anymore. A+

Great key maker. I came here to copy some keys and they are very kind and did a great job. The keys were made very quickly and work seamlessly, and they gave me a ring and key caps too. Thank you very much. If you need to copy keys go here, they do a way better job than Home Depot.

Great neighborhood place. The kind of place you don't mind going a bit out of your way to support. The owner is extremely pleasant, knowledgable, and eager to help. I needed something he didn't carry and he gladly referred me to another area business that did.

An old-school hardware store with a friendly, helpful owner. I have been doing business here for more than 15 years, and Paul always takes care of his customers. Highly recommended - if they don't have it, they do special orders.

Best part of our neighborhood! We love being able to come here for small things we need for projects around the house. Incredible owner who we love supporting! Just call and they’ll tell you if they have what you’re looking for!

I am sad I only found out about this place as I was moving away for the area. The prices are very reasonable and owners were so friendly and helpful. This should be everyone in the areas go to spot.

Adorable little local hardware store with basic household cleaning supplies and key-making capabilities too. At last check they don't take credit or debit cards so bring cash or a check.

I stopped by to get some key copies and was impressed by the speed and hospitality. Owners were kind enough to throw in key caps! Will definitely return for any small hardware needs!

The owner found me a hammer from his personal toolbox that I didn't even know the name of, but it was perfect. The nicest local hardware store I've ever been in.

A small convenient hardware store for you regular day to day hardware needs. Really appreciated the convenient location. Its a friendly family owned place.

Paul was extremely helpful. Went for lightbulbs and small nails, had exactly what I needed. He also gave advice on installing the lightbulbs. Cash only!

This place is a real throwback-- great store. The manager is a very friendly and knowledgeable guy. You just can't get quality service at major chains.

Place is really friendly. The man who owns the shop is really friendly. If in case your key doesn't work, you can come back and he'll do it for free.

Paul is one of the coolest people on Taylor Street. He treats customers like family and makes sure everyone leaves his shop completely satisfied.

I love coming to this shop. It’s a great family and locally owned shop. I would rather get the items I need here than any other chain business.

This place is a gem and Paul the proprietor is great. Its got everything you need and you can tell that Paul really cares about his customers.

When you are in town you must swing by and see Paul. This store is the heart of little Italy and there is no other hardware store like it!

They always have what I'm looking. Usually something odd, but they have it in stock. Very nice people. Certainly worth a stop.

I would recommend that you check here before going to the big box zoos where employees don’t know what they are selling you.

Phenomenal service. Quick and very friendly. I love supporting local businesses and this one is worth supporting!

Some of the nicest people you'll ever meet. The people there went out of his way to ensure I got what I needed.

Great neighborhood hardware store! Super convenient if you need to get a duplicate set of apartment keys!

Awesome little place run by the nicest guy ever. get keys made and assorted hardware home supplies etc.

Great local hardware store. They have been at this location for a long time and they are SUPER helpful.

Superb Service! The keys we have duplicated here never fail. The owners are so kind too.

Super nice. Fast service and perfect customer service. 50 years of experience count!

Friendly, helpful owners. Big chain hardware stores could take a lesson from them.

Thank you for the excellent service on 11/20/23 at 10ish with my screw problem.

Very good hardware store. If he doesn't have it, he'll order it for you

This place has no stock. It's good to make keys. And for conversation

Nice family owned business. Always eager to lend a helping hand …

Empty shelves as far as the eye can see. And i don't think the care

Friendly and knowledgeable staff always willing to lend you a hand.

Fastest and cheapest key duplication I have ever experienced.

What it doesn't have, it makes up for in character and age

Very friendly and swift with the work for the right price

Very weak selection of actual hardware (nuts and bolts).

I grew up with this hardware store and still love it.
