Zijlstra's Hardware

Better than Gamma and Praxis by far.

The guy at the store was so friendly and helpful! We had a quite a few questions as we needed guidance on installing some lights and a tv at our new place and with lots of patience and a great attitude he helped us and was obviously very knowledgeable on all the things we needed to know.

We went to Gamma and Praxis the weekend prior and in comparison this small shop had all the basic essentials that we needed, and the tipping point for us was that the service was 100x better! No attitude or short abruptly answers, just a kind person with knowledge to share.

Would highly recommend supporting this local hardware store as they have many essentials from screws, bolts, basic bike stuff, paint, sprays, lock and key service it seems.

We will definitely be going back again if we need anything hardware related!

Still, the best place to visit if you need anything hardware supply related. For such a small store they carry a lot. The staff is super friendly, knows a lot, and will talk you through everything needed. As another reviewer said, we as a neighborhood are blessed with a pretty good Praxis but really consider going to this place first since it is definitely worth it.

Note: I could be considered a little biased since I work closeby and my shop is literally being held together by supplies all coming from here.

Great shop, just as an example from today - didn’t have the part I needed but pointed me to a website where it could be possible to get it. Very friendly service!

Great service and, by Amsterdam locksmith standards, reasonably priced (€5 for basic key copy).
Also a great selection of tools and garden supplies.
Many thanks

I don‘t want to bash Praxis Markt, because the Westerpark location is not bad at all, but why spend your money there when you can give it to a private owner that always delivers excellent service and great products for fair prices.

Great local ijzerhandel. Always there to help. Also offer small jobs service if they’re not too busy.

I needed to change the shower hose and they provided the best service and product.

They are friendly and helpful plus sell practically everything you need for DIY

Great little local hardware store with a helpful staff. Some things they obviously don't have which you can get at the nearby Gamma or Praxis.

Competence, helpfulness and friendliness; client for years and always a pleasure to visit this place

Excellent old-school hardware store. Very helpful staff.
