Local big box HW store (but one of their smallest stores) has closed their front doors on main street Monday to Friday. You know the doors near all the nice footpath seating.

Car brains ruining everything, and particularly main street.
Time for a letter to the council.
You're viewing a single thread.
This is probably because of theft. Cheaper to have staff at the carpark entry. Looks like itās pretty easy to wander into the Bunnings and grab and run.
Edit: Based on the information provided, this is the Bunnings in Lilydale. Having a look at Google Maps, given the Maroondah Highway traffic and the lake of Main Street parking, this is probably a request from the neighbours or the council to park around the back to avoid overcrowding the street on Monday to Friday. I see there's a medical clinic next door, I wouldn't want Bunnings customers parking in the available spots to prevent people getting in in the morning.
@Pregnenolone Then don't have a shop on main street
Iād argue thatās victim blaming.
Look I donāt like corpos and car brains either but itās called Main St for a reason.
@Pregnenolone I have trouble seeing the giant corp as the victim
Would you prefer they just close entirely and only sell online, maybe on Amazon?
@jaybone I'd rather not have a 40m gap of nothing in the middle of main street.
Cheaper to have staff at the carpark entry.
Why do you claim closing the main street entrance and keeping the carpark entrance staffed is inherently cheaper than closing the carpark entrance and keeping the main street entrance staffed?
- Bunnings is a hardware store. The vast majority of patrons would get there by car. Throughout the week tradies use the store, and their work hours are Monday to Friday. Closing the car park would definitely result in fewer customers.
- thieves are probably less likely to use a car, since stealing by car is slower and more identifiable. A lot of these kinds of Bunnings too have car parks with barriers that they can use to stop cars getting out.
