Antique and vintage fixtures for electrical, plumbing, knobs and door accessories are methodically organized. There are plenty of ready to display/use items as well as components to help finish off a project. The proprietor is super friendly and helpful.

We had one foot in the door when we were knocked down by an overwhelming smell of cigarette smoke. We turned around and left.
