H. Brickman & Sons is a family-owned Ace Hardware store and Benjamin Moore Paint retailer, operating from the same Manhattan headquarters for over five generations. The business began when Hyman Brickman opened his retail paint shop in 1933 and has since grown to include his sons and grandsons, with four locations throughout New York City—  Lower East Side, Stuy Town, West Village and Upper West Side. Although times may have changed, our commitment to serving our customers has not.

With over 80 years of experience, we have the knowledge, expertise and inventory to service the hardware needs unique to New York City.  Residents, DIY enthusiasts, contractors, building managers, supers, interior designers, painters, architects and other building amateurs and pros know that they can trust us to serve them and meet their needs— and have come to think of us as their “go to” for all their building, renovation, and repair needs.

We stock our stores with hardware, paint, housewares, electrical, building material, lumber (which we cut to size), custom built cabinetry, doors and more. Whether you are a retail customer or this is your career, our team will lend you the full benefit of more than eighty years of hard-earned experience and expertise, guiding you through the building process, offering you whatever hands-on assistance you require.

Our knowledgeable and friendly associates are on hand to help you get a handle on all of your hardware needs. From in-house services such as key cutting and lumber cut to size, to on-site projects like flooring installation and blind & shade installation, we have a level of service that is perfect for each of our customers, including property managers, building superintendents, contractors, handymen and homeowners.

Your project is special to you, and it’s special to us too. No matter the size, no matter the scope, no matter the details, we want to see you succeed— and we want to help you along the way.

We’re there for you.
