Description of Work: Union Hardware supplied bathroom fixtures and hardware (faucets and shower heads) for several bathrooms in our home. They were late on delivering a couple of hardware items, which held up our contractor. Two sets of sink basins and their faucets were mismatched. The same two sink basins were different in design from the nicer ones that we chose in their showroom, but we had to accept them since the original design was no longer available and we wanted to avoid holding up the contractor (which occurred anyway due to the late delivered items). Union hardware was unaware that the sink in their showroom had been discontinued as designed. Additionally, one other sink basin was cracked and we discovered this when the plumber was installing it. When I called Union Hardware to inform them of the defective piece they were extremely defensive and rude. Also, Union Hardware had told us that we were getting a 25% discount because of our large ($17,000) order. However, when we bought the replacement sink from their competition, we discovered that the competitor's price without any discount was less than the so called "discounted" price charged to us by Union Hardware for the same item when adding Union Hardware's shipping fee which the competitor does does not charge. I filed a negative review in Yelp and the business sued me for libel alleging that I lied in the review. The business lost the lawsuit in October 2015. They have since filed a response in Yelp again saying I lied, which itself is a lie since everything I have said is true and I have documentary evidence (pictures and receipts and their own e-mail admissions) to prove this. Subsequently, David Goldberg, the owner, who is the person who sued and lost the suit on behalf of Union Hardware, has vindictively set up a special website to complain about my business, with which he has never had any contact whatsoever. He has also written me saying that I will eventually need parts for which he states Union Hardware is the exclusive supplier and that they will not supply them to me in the future.

The locksmith provided me with replacement information/pricing and tried to fix the lockset for me for free. I reinstalled the lockset and it lasted several weeks...I will go back eventually to buy the modern replacement lockset once I make sure I can modify the opening to accomadate it without destroying a very old door. The locksmith refused payment which I thought generous.
Description of Work: Took a broken door lockset (mfr date April 1912) to see if they had repair parts.

The total waiting time was several months, which seemed excessive.
Description of Work: Purchased 2 vanities and fixtures. The wait was longer than estimated and then one vanity was damaged (in the crate from manufacturer) and Union reordered. When delivered the vanities were in good shape. Price is relatively high.

I saw no defects in the cabinets, but the contractor was incredibly fussy and saw some issues with the finish. Union Hardware finally refunded us $200 to cover the repairs. The guy that took our order, Gene, was incredibly knowledgeable. There were two cabinets, and he was the one that pointed out it had internally mounted outlets. We had to get a more expensive one, but it was better suited for our needs.
Description of Work: We bought some cabinets from them.

I was trying to DIY repair my front door mortise lock made by Bladwin. MIchael is an expert at repairing any mortise lockset. For those who don't know, a mortise lock is common on front door locks where the lock body (Big metal box) is inserted in a pocket carved in the door, the metal box contains all the mechanics and latches and springs, probably most common front door latch/lock on any home today. Anyway, when i opened mine and the springs all popped out I knew I was in trouble. I thought I was in more trouble when I found out that a new set would be over $300. Well Michael at Union hardware is an expert at repairing these. I brought in my lockset and he repaired mine for a mere $61. He was very polite, showed me his wor area and how he did his work and straightened out some bent parts in my lockset (the original problem) and put it back together expertly. A true craftsman and expert of the trade and polite.
Description of Work: Michael repaired my Baldwin brand Mortise Lockset. While they are not "locksmiths" to come to your house they will repair a door lock if you bring one in.

This is the absolute best place to purchase high quality hardware for your home in the area. Their prices are high, but they really ensure that you purchase exactly what you need and offer installation advice, etc. Their selection is wonderful. They go the extra mile every time.

The selection is very good, they don't have quite as much as the main location in Bethesda however the show room is efficient. The price you pay is for an high quality product.
Description of Work: Union hardware carries very high end bathroom supplies (toilets, hardware, vanities, etc). I purchased several items that have been imported from England, Germany, etc.
