5:45

Every morning, some of the hardest working people in America can be found in The Home Depot® parking lots at the crack of dawn, waiting for their stores to open at 6:00 a.m.

Contractors. Plumbers. Small business owners. Electricians. Welding students. Even drama teachers building sets for their students. Directed by Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Henry-Alex Rubin, “5:45 a.m.” is The Home Depot tribute to these dedicated, hard working people. Shot with real customers and telling their authentic stories, this commercial honors the people made for doing - along with our promise that everything we do, we do for them.
