    Anyone know if there's any open hardware shops in Kildare at the moment? Everything in Newbridge seems to be closed. Nass/Newbridge/Kildare Town/Kilcullen area would be preferable.

    Barretts Maynooth are doing 9-1; but only for essentials (plumbing/electrical mostly) and you need to phone in advance - 6286371

    Did I hear the Range in Maynooth was open?

    They are, but, when I went there the weekend lockdown was announced, I was told the Gardaí had visited and asked them to stop selling non essential items.

    You can buy hardware now as long as you buy something "essential" as well with it.

    Just in the Range. I got paint there yesterday but was "advised" to buy something essential so I bought a bottle of bleach!!

    I'm looking for paint as well, Woodies are selling online and delivering, but can't find any paints at all. Is Choice still open?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,415 ✭✭✭generalgerry


    I think Colour Trend is Celbridge is still open.

    I was looking to buy some gardening tools. Can find anywhere open. Just want to get a trowel and similar things. I think I may go on Adverts.

    They might deliver for a fee. Contactless, pay over the phone, leave it on the step

    Delivery is free, but paints are overpriced.

    Colortrend paints are priced suitable to their quality basically. Vastly superior to any other domestically produced brand.

    That would mean the delivery charge is included in the new price. Lucky for anyone getting delivery & yough luck on anyone buying to take away.

    Does anyone know anywhere I could order Ronseal fence life?

    Yep, I'd completely agree. I originally got a shock when I priced their stuff a few years ago but picked up a bargain bin colour they had on sale (it was only for a spare room) I immediately saw why the price difference!

    I'm in need of same brand (Slate color) for wooden fence.

    I just did a search and found this. They seem to be delivering to this general area. 2 - 4 days for delivery by a third party (courier obviously). I haven't used them myself, though.

    Thank you, I'll contact them tomorrow and check. It's typical to have the time to do things, but not having what you need.

    The shops will probably be open by the time you'd get the stuff but at least it's an option... :)

    Was from a friend in the trade as I was asking about getting a delivery done. Was in reference to woodies and b&q as he didn't have what I needed, but might get sorted if this all happens
