大新五金

大新五金, a hardware shop in Kennedy Town, Central and Western, is at 香港島堅尼地城卑路乍街131號. Before heading over it is worth checking the hours, phone number and Google rating below, so the trip is not wasted.

It pays to compare prices before you buy and to check that the price shown includes everything. Octopus, credit cards, FPS and e-wallets work in most shops, though small ones may be cash only or set a minimum for cards; weekend and public-holiday afternoons are busiest, so weekday daytime is better for a relaxed browse. Hardware shops cluster in older street-level shops; bring measurements or a photo so staff can match the part.

Google lists the opening hours as Mon–Sat 08:00–18:30, Sun closed. It is open 6 days a week. It is closed on Sundays, which is not unusual for a small shop, although malls and chain stores open all week. Arrangements may differ on public holidays, over Lunar New Year and when a typhoon signal No. 8 or above or a black rainstorm warning is in force, so call before making a special trip. You can call 2818 5588; a phone call is the quickest way to ask about availability, prices or how to get there. More information is on its website, 5metal.com.hk.

At 4.1 out of 5 on Google (7 reviews), it sits mid-table; the written reviews say more about service, prices and waiting times than the number does.

Kennedy Town is part of the Central and Western District on Hong Kong Island. The north shore of Hong Kong Island is one of the densest business areas in the city: the MTR Island Line runs from Kennedy Town to Chai Wan, the trams ("ding dings") between Kennedy Town and Shau Kei Wan, and many businesses trade from upper floors of office blocks and older tenement buildings. The south side is known for beaches, trails and fishing harbours such as Repulse Bay, Stanley and the Aberdeen typhoon shelter, which get busy at weekends and on public holidays. Octopus works on the MTR, buses, minibuses, ferries and trams; heading to Kennedy Town, check the street map inside the MTR station to find the nearest exit.
