East Village · 114 First Avenue

Tools, paint, plumbing & plants. Family-run for decades.

Saifee Hardware & Garden is the East Village's friendly, trusted neighborhood hardware store — fully stocked with the basics and always introducing something new, from home repair to the garden.

The local source for home repair, garden, and decorating needs — here when the community needs us.

A family-owned hardware and garden establishment in the East Village, Saifee has served New Yorkers for decades. We carry all the basics — paint, tools, nails, screws, and a complete range of plumbing and electrical supplies — alongside housewares for the rest of the home, from coffeemakers to cleaning supplies to mason jars.

We're also the go-to garden center of the neighborhood: seeds, herbs, plants and succulents, organic soil and fertilizers, and a line of unique classic and modern planters sourced from Madagascar, Vietnam, Italy, India, and Thailand.

  • DeWalt
  • Valspar
  • Makita
