They are part of the ACE Hardware family, so you can get their ACE card to save money and receive coupons. The parking lot can get a bit congested, even the lot behind them where there are about 5-6 more shops. Today was especially challenging because they were holding their annual customer appreciation day from 10-2. They had sales, merchants, cookies and popcorn, and a goody bag giveaway! Plus, with your ACE card you got 20% off non-sale items. I always come in this time of year to buy my wild birds, suet cakes for the winter. Also, they sell locally produced (Gaithersburg) My Dad's Chips. Barbecue is my favorite, but the original is great too. The employees are superb. They know where everything is located and are really helpful. I love shopping here.

When I applied the paint to the wall, instead of being China White, a standard color, it showed up as being very yellow. I went back to the store and was told that because they had to mix the base to create the standard correct color, they would have to charge me again. Bottom line, I went to another Benjamin Moore paint shop and they mixed the paint perfectly. Poorly maintained or dirty equipment might have been the cause. Howard

I went out there and got exactly what I needed, i.e. two heavy duty matching vertical letter sized cabinets.

I called after purchasing them, before delivery for the measurements, and they were not accommodating and provided them. I will not hesitate to go back there in the future. And, actually, it was fun just browsing the store after I made my selection.

The traditional big box hardware store is mikes and mikes away, and asking for help at those places has always been hit or miss. This Ace hardware store is located right in the center of town, and it is definitely a well sticked and a full service hardware store. Their prices may be a little higher but the convenience factor far outweighs the additionally cost. I was helped immediately by an awesome employee, and he directed me to the exact section that had closet brackets, and then he directed me to where the small screws were located. I was surprised to see their extensive paint section, and they even have Christmas gear already on display. I really do appreciate the personalized attention from the folks who work here.
