This is the kind of old-school neighborhood place I have been needing in my life! I'm the daughter…read moreof a do-it-yourselfer so naturally that spirit lives on in me. My family loves out of state so though they can provide guidance I'm always stumped as to where to go for certain items. Now I have found it and better yet they give great advice! My war with squirrels brought me here. I needed chicken wire to deter those pests from eating my freshly planted tulips bulbs. I called and they had 3 varieties to choose from. When I showed up, it felt like I was stepping back in time and I loved every moment. I was greeting and given guidance to what I needed. The gentleman even considered price when making a suggestion to me. Not trying to up sell or give me more than what I needed to get the job done! I'm hoping today's war against the squirrels efforts did the trick but if they didn't, I know where I can go to get some new supplies!

In the back of the store they still have a scale to sell nails by the pound. At the front counter they can make a duplicate key for you and it will probably work the first time, unlike the key machine at the chain hardware store. Furnaces and parts for them are available here. Sinks, faucets, drain parts are all here as well. Only 2 employees, so if you live in the neighborhood, you can get to know them and make this your one stop shop for hardware. You can look around in here, but you should really ask to find what you need because some of the stuff they carry is in the back. I really enjoyed my short time here because it reminded me of the hardware store I grew up visiting with my Dad when I was little.

I have to say, Todd was really nice and went above and beyond. I'm truly grateful for his help. We had to park down the street since brunch was busy and we wanted to get our steps in so we were just going to carry them or I would have had my daughter go get my car but Todd was kind enough to put them on a cart and walk with us. I also want to add the prices were really too good to pass up and my purchase would have been well over $100.00 elsewhere. Glad we stopped in. Will definitely have to make a trip back perhaps next week. Thank you again. Great service and great selection.

We had such a lovely visit here last week, picking up some items for spring garden. The staff was…read moreincredibly helpful and friendly. We purchased several vegetables, like kale, cabbage, Brussel, sprouts, and more. We also purchased some soil and a few other household items we were running low on. Our experience was great from start to finish, and I was very impressed with their selection of gardening vegetables. There were multiple varieties of greens, a dozen plus a Herbs, and pretty much everything you could need to start an expansive vegetable garden. Looking forward to future visits at this neighborhood, hardware store.

Today, the store looks like it has for the last 50 years. Vintage signs still hang out front of the store, always advertising something interesting. Inside, I found the store packed, with shelves filled up to the ceiling. The store is a bit disorganized and cluttered, but they seem to have everything a do-it-yourselfer might need. Prices are reasonable. The clerk asked us if we needed help and later talked a bit about the store's history. Old photos hang on the wall with Victorian photos of the original Hedlunds. We bought chainsaw oil. We've got to trim some trees. Parking is easy and close to the building. Exiting north requires patience as there is a lot of traffic.

If you are of the female gender, you will be asked if you need help and get help. I know this because I personally took note of it in the store and who got help and who did not. This store is about 2 miles from me. I now spend the money in gas and drive by it and go 3 miles further to a box store and I get help. I filed a complaint with Ace corporate and was told many things by corporate Customer Care. I was told the regional manager and the district manager would get involved. That never happened. I have received no communication from this particular store.

Very skilled at charades and guessing what you might be trying to say. And if they can't guess it, they get more players (store emploees) involved, until the mystery is solved and the proper tool or gadget guessed and found for you. I have always heeded their advice and they have not steered me wrong yet. So much better than those huge stores where you have to beg folks to help you and run around finding them, which can take a few miles. In this ACE store, you won't make it to the first aisle without someone greeting you and asking if you need help finding something. Kudos to this mom & pop store.

Then they sold me a fingered oven glove which was just what I needed for my small hand. I have literally been looking for months for this thing. So then I asked them if they also had cotton candy and a pony and that's when I finally struck out. A real true-blue old hardware place like I like them. It's basically the Tardis inside. Looks like a standard Ace - but don't be fooled. Also, everyone is helpful and nice. A huge bonus. This is a bit of a drive for me but so worth it.

I always leave here with a lot of inspiration.

Because of this massive network of over 4,100 individual stores, they can use this network to provide lower prices to compete with the big box stores. They have everything for every season whether it's flowers, plants, trees & shrubs to outdoor furniture, Christmas trees during the season accessories and a huge array of grills for those grill master enthusiasts. Oh and of course typical hardware stuff like paint, tools etc. Don't miss going into the yellow house and they even have a restaurant, yes in a hardware store, called Sully's that you can eat and also take cooking classes there. You can also walk around with an adult beverage while you browse! They have the OG at 71st and Keystone, they acquired Allisonville home and garden by Sullivan, 49th and Pennsylvania and in Cicero.
