  I was just in there today. First, I had to call for directions, and the woman that answered the phone gives GREAT directions. Just "Lefts" and "Rights", no colors, or family history about birthday parties. Just left there, and then right there, and then the last left through the gate. TA-DA! Anyways, I'm wearing my grubby Contractor clothing, and they spent about 20 minutes explaining the difference between all the various hinges, face-mount, etc... and then the plates that determine where the cabinet door is going to line-up, and also how they are the ONLY authorized distributor of authentic Blum (Austrian pronounciation) hinges, and that all the others being sold in San Antonio are cheap knock-offs. Which was exactly the reason why my Alamo Heights customer hated her wobbly kitchen cabinet doors. They weren't real Blum. Once I spent some time comparing the two, the difference in quality was obvious. I bought two, installed them on the wobbliest kitchen cabinet door and it got real stable immediately. Homeowner is going to have me replace all of them (about 50). Anyways, the whole point is that I've been to Lowes, Home Depot, Allen & Allen, talked to an Interior Designer, and a couple of guys that worked the counter at some millworks on the west side and NO ONE could help me to fix my customer's wobbly cabinet doors. She REALLY hates them. It wasn't until I came to Dakota that they gave me the magic fix. Problem solved. You can tell these people know what they are doing, and like their jobs, and they like their customers too. Usually when I'm in grubby Contractor mode, the counter staff treats me like I'm something the cat just yacked-up. They get this "ew" look on their face, and it doesn't get any better when they realize that not only am I grubby, I'm also smarter than they are. They REALLY hate that. These folks at Dakota today didn't give me that "yuck" vibe, and because of that, they get this glowing review, from a bona-fide Internet Marketing genius and professional Local SEO. You never know who it is that's talking to you, and you never know what can happen as a result of that meeting.
