Saifee Hardware

I know the owner personally and I can tell you he is a dedicated businessman who isn’t out to rip people off for the most money possible like many other small and big stores. They have the best key cutting service in Birmingham including specialist keys that you just won’t find elsewhere. One other thing I like about the owner is that if he doesn’t have a product you want just ask him and within a week he can get it for you. Great little store!

Saifee’s is a dependable hardware store. A store for the practical minded who are satisfied with leaving that leaky tap for someone else to attend to or to let that draughty window to give them another poor nights sleep.
The shelves are stacked high and if you know what you want it’s likely Mr Saifee will know where to look. The key cutting service here is the only one I’ve experienced in recent years where they have worked the first time, which casts shame on some undisclosed big names.
The minnows of local hardware continue to punch well above their weight.

I seem to have an in-​depth knowledge of the small, cornershop variety of hardware stores in South Brum. I put this down to the fact that my first job was in Texas Homecare — a massive, warehouse DIY place — and I hated it with a passion. Even going in such a place these days, like B&Q or Homebase as they are now branded, gives me the absolute fear, so I’m much more likely to spend the extra few quid that means going local and small instead of stack-​em-​high, sell-​em (not so)-cheap.
Saifee is one such place on my mental map of places that sell screws, gaffa tape, watering cans, decorating supplies, and the like. As with most such places, Saifee’s is packed to the rafters with dusty stock, but you’re almost guaranteed to find what you’re looking for. He’s not as cheap as Homebase, but at the same time he’s not a soulless aircraft hanger with piped in muzak. You pays yer money and you takes yer choice.

Saifee is my local hardware store, so maybe i’m biased and yeah I love hardware stores so again what’s to fault!
Key cutting services are available along with all of the other cool stuff available.
Yeah you know, axes big hammers the like, so if there ever is a bath salt induced Zombie Apocalypse Mr Saifee is going to be rubbing his hands together with glee as the demand sends his profits through the roof!
Saifee aint going’ nowhere, Hardware Stores do a steady trade whatever the economic forecast and it’s worth a gander for the charm alone.
