I was just in Ace Culver City. While to world is decisive it showed hear. I ask a question. The clerk would not even look at me. I am a woman of color and take offense to him being rude and un willing to answer my question with respect. Done with this store!!! read more

I needed my car key replaced and Sam got it taken care of in 15 minutes for only 58 bucks that's a steal! Especially since the dealer ship wanted 250 an hour for the same thing ! read more

I just went and bought some spray paint. The spray paint did not work so took it back. The worker was so mad, took it outside, and as I dripped all over the place told me it worked. I told him no it doesn't work. I need another one. He hurries in and gives me my money back and tell me to go away. Pretty much chased me out of the store for six dollar can of spray . !!!!!! terrible terrible business!!!'nThe man followed me outside yelling at me!!! A lady outside, selling window cannot believe it . Absolutely unbelievable now I'm stuck with no spray paint to do my grandmother's Burial reef I'm so upset!!!!! read more

Really really rude workers, poor service and very very messy place. Overall do not go here

Terrible service. The owner is unhelpful and downright rude. He acts like the customer is an inconvenience to him. Much as I prefer to support local businesses, I'd rather go to Home Depot than here. read more

Do not give this store your business! I bought a craftsman hand tool from Ace Hardware. When, I picked up, it did not work. I was told me a new one would be ordered for exchange and to pick up on Friday. I went to pick up and was told by Sam the manager, Ace wouldn't refund my money, was very indigent, told me he would throw it in the trash and told me I was getting on his nerves. This was in front of his customers. Very poor customer service by Ace and Craftsmen read more

On multiple visits, I have tried to ask simple questions of the people working there but can never get a complete answer, and have had to buy things elsewhere or do further research myself to get the proper response. Their selection leaves a lot to be desired - on a recent visit when looking for a flathead driver bit for my drill, was told they don't carry the 4 inch size because nobody uses it these days (an appalling statement...). I can see how I personally could improve in communicating my thoughts when trying to converse with the people trying to help, but 2/3 times i've had a question the response has been clueless, pedantic, or sarcastic. I hope to never have to visit this particular store again, and if I do, I should hope I don't need a professional opinion of any kind. read more

I am a big fan of Culver City Industrial Hardware. I've been going there for years. The "screw wall" alone is worth the trip. The place is not glitzy like Home Depot. They've had the same staff for decade I've been going and they're always attentive. The store is an important member of the Culver City commercial community. read more

Excellent inventory and if they don't have it, doubtful that anyone else will. The staff is very knowledgeable

I absolutely love this hardware store. It's been in CC for longer than I've been alive and they have almost everything the big box stores too. Recently purchased this Leatherman Wave+ and I'm super happy with it. I'll gladly patronize this store. They have some sort of partnership with ACE as well. Help out the little guy folks! read more

I needed extra keys made and Sam at the counter not only made my keys but assembled each one on a ring with care. He was so patient and kind. He treated me like an auntie! The price was so reasonable and the merchandise was great! read more

Read the other reviews and stay away from this place!!!! I bought something from here and within a few hours my credit card company contacted me about fraudulent activity on my account. Luckily, they caught it and declined the transaction but now I have to wait for a new card. ***This place might have software that rips off CC info on their devices.*** read more

Today, I only needed 8qty rivet nuts and 8qty screws size 10-24. A middle-aged man helped me and charged $20.99 ($1.39 per rivet nut, .99c per screw + tax). It seemed extremely high, so I questioned it. He said it was correct. Since I was rushing to an appointment, I thought, although high, maybe it was acceptable (?) so I chose to pay the amount, and would look into it asap. After some quick research, I came back an hour later. I gave him the benefit of the doubt and mentioned that I thought he may have accidentally overcharged me, he said he didn't. When I stated I wanted to return them, he said there was a 20% restocking fee. Really?! I asked where on the receipt it stated that amount (nothing). He directed my attention to a sign in the store, which said 10%. I pointed that out, he hesitantly came around to confirm, acted puzzled, quickly said they raised it to 20%, but grumbly honored the 10%. While processing the return, I told him that I found a bag of 100qty rivet nuts selling in many places online for $10. He shot back an attitude like "so"? Now, I don't mind an upcharge for an individual piece, especially at a local business, but 14x more (& .99c for one screw)?! In my opinion, restocking fees are often absurd, especially on already overpriced items, with no repacking needed, etc, but fine. And finally, just zero concern for customer satisfaction, his attitude from start to finish was off putting. I never leave reviews, but this exchange bothered me enough to do so. After reading several here, sadly, I'm not the only one with a disappointing, overpriced experience. I'm also joining the others who won't be coming back. read more

I called the number on Apple Maps and the guy answered and I asked him what I wanted with the price on their website and he said no, we don't have that, so I asked then what do you have regarding the item I am looking for? and he was like the regular price and I was like so what's the regular price and then, he said I don't know and then he put me on hold I don't recommend customer service read more

This place sucks. Staff is useless and rude. One of their staff members advised me to buy incorrect items that didn't work for my needs, and then they refused my returning of the items despite having a receipt and the parts being immaculate, unused and in their original packaging. I'm all about helping small businesses, but wouldn't mind seeing Home Depot take this place out for good. read more

I was treated very poorly when trying to return a bad drill bit. I was told never to come back. I hate this hardware store. I have been shopping here for years but now i will never come back again. thanks abra. read more

The actual name of this place is Culver Industrial Hardware. Just sayin'... Go here all the time for various items. Today I needed a lock box for my back door. I lock myself out about once or twice a year so the lock box is essential. Put in a key, when you need it, input the code number and the box opens. They're not cheap -- over $20. But that's better than being locked out of your house with no cell phone and having to bug the neighbors. read more

This place is the absolute worse. My husband called to see if they had what we needed they out him on hold came back and said "YES WE HAVE IT" I drove over to Culver City and they DID NOT have what we needed. One of the guys proceeded to tell me either buy something or leave. I went ballistic. Needless to say I WILL NEVER GO BACK and no one else should give these RUDE ASS PEOPLE any business! read more

I will not be returning to Culver Industrial Hardware! The manager was rude to his staff and to me. I witnessed the manager being rude to his staff by making comments that showed impatience and disrespect for his staff. In addition, he was rude to me. I asked where I could find a certain product. He instructed me where the product could be found. When I told him that I couldn't find the product, he started to yell at me and made comments, to the effect, that he couldn't understand how I couldn't find the product. It never occurred to him to personally help me. My advice to the readers of this review is to stay away from this store and its lousy customer service! read more

A very well stocked store . Some of the help are extremely friendly and helpful, others think they're doing you a favor by taking your money ~ _WRONG_ . The Ace Hardware chain is a marketing tool and many individual stores don't honor the sales prices so be aware, don't get angry, it takes a _LOT_ of dollars to have this much inventory . Most Ace stores are poorly stocked, this one has massive stocks of obscure things you'll need sooner or later ~ a real old time hardware store . -Nate read more

Abra who is the locksmith and also wears other hats is fantastic. Very helpful and super competent. He managed to program my smart key fob when my mechanic who had a machine that was designed to do so, couldn't. Also his price was half at least of the Toyota dealer. The rest of the store is amazing. What they dont have they can order. Only downside is that they are quite busy. Good for them. read more

Culver City Industrial Hardware also goes by ACE Hardware. Beware of this business. Went to pick up a small purchase. Sales staff advised .79 cents per foot. Pricey, but I needed it. When I went to pay, the manager charged me $1.09 per foot. I told him that I was advised I was quoted .79 . He told me the staff was wrong and refused Original quote. VERY RUDE. I then went to Dicks True Value Hardware on Venice Blvd. Same product there is only .16 cents per foot. Never going back to ACE in Culver City. read more

Best hardware store around. Ive been going here for ten years or more since the hardware closer to me closed. The guys have good knowledge in most departments. An unbeatable selection of bolts. Most bolts at home depot are grade 2 and will break, Culver hardware has better quality and every type of bolt. Super selection of tools, plumbing and electrical supplies. I took a friend there and he commented " boy, if it's not here, you don't need it". I've always had great help from the staff. I've never seen rudeness as a couple people posted here, maybe it's them. read more

I was really disappointed with my experience here. I had ordered something online at the end of December, and I was going to pick it up in mid-January. I knew that I was picking it up late, but I called them before I went to make sure that it was there. The person told me - Of course it's here! We wouldn't send it back! When I arrived, the item was NOT there, and they asked me to come back the next week. I don't live near this Ace, so this is a big challenge. They blamed it on all the orders being sent back, which doesn't make any sense because they would have had many upset customers. On top of that - the owner of the store was incredibly rude to his staff while I was standing there, and cursed in front of my two small children. They also talked about me as I was leaving and I could hear them. read more

Stopped in to pick up some screws and Pine Sol. $1.20 plus $3.60 before tax. Went up to the counter, tried to pay with a debit card, and was told that there's a $5 minimum for cards. Congrats, you just lost a sale and a customer because you wanted me to spend another 20 cents. Won't be back. read more

Oh my! This store has got to be every man's fantasy. Tools tools tools! So many nails - from top to bottom. I'm sure every woman wishes her man kept his nails as organized as this place, labeled by name and size. Fiancee and I were able to find the right nails very quickly, for $0.69 a piece. Quick and easy trip, and the guy at the counter was helpful in pointing us in the right direction. Since we didn't but any major tools, I can't say whether this place is overpriced, as some reviewers have noted. And my fiancee had been here before, so he must have been happy with his last visit! read more

Mike H. must have been having a bad day. Maybe he has a bad day every day, who knows. When I lived in San Diego I used to go to Marshall's Industrial Hardware and thought they were the best ever. Culver City Industrial Hardware has everything Marshall's had and a lot of old time esoteric hardware items too. The staff is knowledgeable and helpful. Most importantly they know where everything is. Stuff is packed in pretty tight in this place. Don't waste a lot of time trying to find it by yourself. Just ask they'll tell you exactly where it is. If you're a maker or a builder, a geek or construction worker this is your place. Why drive all the way to a Lowe's or Home Depot? What a hassle! The easy in and out more than makes up for the few dollars you might save. read more

In time of need for supplies and when people need to help people and watch out for one another these guys are selling own branded mask 800% markup a .65 cent mask for $6.50 and a .85 cent mask for $9.00 if you do the math that is basically $140.00 to $180.00 for a box of twenty. How is that not taking advantage of the situation. We have people sick in the hospitals and elders at home because of shortages of mask and gloves and these guys are selling own brand mask that are probably not even certified or cleared for accuracy. Don't support these people. read more

So called several stores to see which had mask, this was the only place carrying N95 mask which are hard to come by. Glad they are so the only place left that has face mask! Excellent customer. read more

This is a small hardware store but it is jam packed with inventory. It reminds me of a workshop that would belong to a mad tinkerer. The only thing missing is a bunch of cuckoo clocks mounted on the back wall. They have an extremely large inventory of nuts, bolts, screws, washers etc. If you need some kind of obscure size this is the place to get it. If you are looking for more common items that would be at your local home depot then it would just depend on which one is more convenient. read more

Came in to get neem oil for my plants and only after traversing the cramped shelves, I finally found it. I know it's an ace hardware but step up your shelving game. Couldn't find anything and on top of that there were rat droppings near the pest control cages. The store is disgusting and unkept, but if you feel at home in your grandads cluttered garage, this is the place for you. read more

Very rude and not helpful. I called to ask them if they had weather stripping door to seal my room from rats, and they told me to go online and look it up. I was calling this particular store because to see if they still have it. Things might changed due to the pandemic. read more

Stopped by when Harbor Freight Tools didn't have what I needed. Easy parking around back and friendly service pointing you in the right direction from when you walk in. Excellent selection of supplies and honest pricing. I'll definitely keep them on my radar for future needs. read more

I had a leaking bathroom sink drain pipe. I already had gone to Lowe's and wasted $25 on the wrong fitting pipes. I decided to give this place a try. Luckily I had taken a picture of my sink and showed it to one of the employees here. He just happened to be a retired plumber! He quickly identified all the parts I needed and I got home and I fixed it!! Thanks !! read more

They are taking advantage of the situation for the sake of profit! Do not support this business. They are price gouging for masks and sanitary goods. California's anti-price gouging statute, Penal Code Section 396, prohibits raising the price of many consumer goods and services by more than 10% after an emergency has been declared. It's illegal and immoral! read more

They are taking advantage of the virus selling only one mask per person. $4 for not even a n95. I'm in the construction business and will bad mouth them every chance I get read more

Great place to find small screws! Came in after running around Home Depot, orchard hardware, and hardware freight all within a couple miles between them: no one helped me like they did here. No one bothered to help me like they did here. At Home Depot I got the usual head shake of confusion and same with the other two spots. However here I was surprised when the man just went to check it out anyways and in less than 5 minutes I was on my way with 3 tools I needed. Thank you! read more

I've been many many times, and I can remember once they didn't have exactly what I needed. Most recently I needed a weirdly-small (M2.5-45x25) metric machine screw, and when five minutes at the bins didn't find anything, the clerk went to the "weird-screw" box and found one that fit in another two minutes...and then wouldn't even take any money for his time, insisted I take the screw gratis. They're insanely well-stocked with hard to find things, all the clerks know what they have and how to find it in an old-school overcrowded store, and I just couldn't be happier that they exist. read more

I continue to shop at Culver City Hardware, it's the best ! Bill typically helps me when I come in and he is awesome . He is very knowledgeable and knows the hardware business and provides expert advise. Bill as well as the other employees in the store is what makes this hardware store the best place to get what you need for any project. read more

This is a diamond in the rough situation. Located near the Fox Hills mall near the 405 and 90, this hardware store is as classy as your old hardware store gets. With ample parking in the back, you'll find the old guys running this joint with all kinds of knick knack supplies compacted into a small store. They do simple stuff from cutting keys to hard jobs like fencing and piping orders. Many of the items are high quality and can be custom ordered. Linked to Ace Hardware, I ordered a circular saw online and had it delivered here to avoid shipping charges. I was able to pick it up quickly with an ID. By the time I left, I had three guys behind me waiting patiently for service. Seemingly, only one man ran the store even though that wasn't the case. It's kind of a find-it-yourself kind of store and requires patience. I don't mind it, because I love hardware stores. The messier the better and the more it gets my creativity into a whirl. I like this place and although it can use a clean-up, it's one of the last standing old school hardware stores and small businesses. I'd like to support 'em and I hope you can too. Come by here instead of your big box store if you can, and you'll likely find the basics that you need. read more
