    That would be it. Hardware stores have been allowed open since Harris signed the powers order. But many have chosen not to. Permission to open was confirmed by the govt on Friday - usual social distancing rules apply.

    HARDWARE stores should not be open to the general public, the Government has clarified, following widespread confusion in the sector in recent days.

    Business Minister Heather Humphreys said on Sunday that hardware stores can operate in a “very limited and restricted way” and should not be open to the general public during the Covid-19 restrictions.

    Hardware and garden shops were classed as ‘essential retail outlets’ under emergency laws giving gardaí the power to enforce the pandemic restrictions. This was despite such stores being told to close by the Government at the end of March.

    Some hardware stores around the country started to reopen last week on the basis of the new regulations.

    The Department issued a clarifying statement on Saturday night, saying: “Hardware and other stores shouldn’t be open to the general public.

    “Such outlets are not to open except on the emergency and/or delivery basis as set out in the updated retail services list. That list is unchanged.”


    Speaking to RTÉ’s This Week programme on Sunday, Ms Humphreys outlined the circumstances under which hardware stores can currently operate.

    “It's not the case that hardware stores should be open to the general public, but if you need something as an emergency, for example, if you have a burst pipe in your house, or if there's a hole in your roof and the rain is coming in, or the fridge gives up.

    “Obviously, in emergency cases like that, you and your tradesman are going to need to be able to access certain materials from the hardware shops to fix the problem.

    “So I want to stress in cases like that, it should be done by delivery or on an emergency call up basis. So basically if there's an emergency or you need to get something the hardware stores can provide that to you.”

    Clearys Topline in Kilcock are open for delivery and collection.
    You have to pre pay by card over the phone and they will give you a collection time and/or delivery time if you want it delivered.
    Great service I have to say--ordered stuff at 10.00 yesterday morning...delivered yesterday at 2.00
    Needed extra stuff today - ordered at 10.30 and I collected it at 11.00

    They really have it worked out well for customers and staff.

    At this stage, I'm really worried for your fence. If it's just to finish the job to make it look okay, have you considered just staining it? Obviously, it'd be your personal preference if you went Lyons or Barry's, but tea is good for that sort of thing (temporarily). Stew if for a while, though.

    Woodies on the Long Mile Road are doing click and collect apparently. Keep an eye out for the one in Newbridge, they'll all probably offer it soon.

    Apparently you can go to the shop too. My brother was there today and just had to queue for a bit. I think they let a few people in at a time, with somebody taking strict charge of the door.
