“I took the Woodworking 101 course. It was everything I was expecting. Learned about wood, how to use many tools and got to use every one of the tools the class covered. John, the instructor is very knowledgeable and a great news instructor. I highly recommend this class and can’t wait to sign up for other classes.”
“Not a huge selection but really good service and people. I wish I had taken them my generator for service a long time ago rather than wasting time on other places that let me down and charged a lot more”
“Hand down best place around to get you equipment/service needs being an owner of Butler Resolution, they make sure we can keep up with our equipment service and always go above everyone else!”
“I went in today for some plumbing supplies, and a really helpful man named Pat helped me find everything. He was really nice and so efficient. This is the kind of customer service that will keep me coming back!! I'd also like to say that the store looked amazing. It was clean, organized and well-stocked. I was also impressed with the low prices. Proctor Ace Hardware beats Lowe's and Home Depot by far. If you're looking for a neighborhood hardware store, Proctor Ace is your place to go. I was in and out of there in a very short time. I'll definitely be going back for any future hardware purchases! ?”
“A new employee named Fred helped my dad and I get materials for a project of building a Star Wars Clone helmet. He was extremely helpful and knew ball on Star Wars and how to help us get the desired effect. 10/10 for Ace and Fred.”
“Just a unique place. Feels like stepping back in time which I love. Not the largest selection but a good overall of most of what you could need. Lots to see on the walls. Thank you for my shovel!”
“I came in looking for pieces to make a project, and Ty Helped me find every piece for the project and was so kind! He definitely deserves a lot of praise for his knowledgeable help and his professional attitude.”
“Very well-maintained store. Things are organized and great prices. Even though the shopping mall that it is in may run down. The store itself is well kept. Things are in stock and in the right places. It's a welcome feeling when you go into the store. Very good bargains for tools that cost a lot more by other name brands at other retailers.”
“Harbor Freight On Blanding Is An Amazing Place To Shop Staff Is Very Helpful And Polite Mr Leonard Is An Amazing Manager Sir You Have A Great Team You Guys Are Amazing”
“I was looking for a store to sharpen garden tools and called around to many stores. Oceanway Hardware was recommended. I called and received a competitive price. It took me a week to visit and I’m glad I did! This really nice, tall gentleman (Raymond-owner) walked out and made us feel welcomed. He listened to what we needed and his brother had my tools sharpened in about 10 to 15 mins. As we were waiting for tools to be sharpened, Raymond engaged us in a wonderful conversation on the history of the hardware store. The customer service we experienced was excellent and we plan on visiting again along with recommending to our friends!”

I highly recommend everyone go there for the great customer service.”
“I just was shopping at this store and I was approached by the store manager and he asked if he could help me. I needed help and he went out of his way to help me. I believe his name is Tom, he’s the reason I will go back to this store. Thanks bro for your help! Jamb up dude, professional and courteous.”

“August 2025: Rip off prices are creeping in to Harbor Freight! I recently purchased a PITTSBURGH™ 12/120V, Dual-Power, 120 PSI Inflator with LED Light for $44!!! There is no way this small item is worth that much!! Looks like a Trump trariff kicking in to me!! Gone are the days when shopping here automatically meant lower prices!!! Time to shop around or buy used.”
“Excellent!!!
Every time I go to this store, there are many employees, they want to help (are intentional about helping, unlike the “big” hardware stores; it’s refreshing) and are knowledgeable/nice.
I’ll be coming here for everything they can help me.
Local store vibe.

“If I could give more stars, I would! Keith (owner) goes above and beyond to deliver absolute top notch customer service, product and superior pricing!!! So glad I finally found a hardware company that actually delivers on their promises!!”
“They carry a lot of specialty tools for automotive. As well as many tools that you won't find at The Big Box store. Reasonably priced for a standalone shop. Service is great and very helpful.”
“Pretty good selection for the relatively small square footage. Prices are low, even compared to the big box stores and certainly compared to the specialty hardware companies like Ace
The focus is on vehicle accessories such as hitches and tiedowns, an array of small tools, small trailer tires, small motors for pumps, various generators, toolboxes, and thousands of other things. Not nearly as overwhelming as the big box stores, but perhaps not quite as satisfying in many categories either.”
“I was trying to get a magnifying lamp fixed for my elderly Mother before heading back to Texas. Harold worked me in and found a solution to the problem. Not only is he an expert in his field, he’s a really good person. Highly recommend!!”
“I ran night shift in a powerplant here in Jacksonville almost 20 years ago , Anything we needed Brian got it to us I even saw him and his wife delivering tools to us one time around 2:00 in the morning. Excellent service... Brian I drive a Truck now for Shoreside logistics here in Jacksonville, send a salesman to meet our bosses they could use some help finding some trucking supplies maybe.”
“I had an issue with an online order not being delivered on time. Contacted the customer service number provided, as directed via email a couple of times and was unable to resolve the issue. Some how I found myself transferred by customer service to the store. That's when I had the pleasure of speaking with Mason, one of the managers there. He was extremely professional and personable at the same time. He spoke to me with genuine empathy concerning my delay of delivery, and though it was not his fault he took ownership and responsibility to address and solve the problem with a sense of urgency. My delivery then arrived within just a couple of hours (after I had previously waited 4 days for a same-day order). Thank you Mason for going above and beyond to assist me!”
“Ace is the place. I had an odd project i was doing. And I needed the Ace man to grind down a bracket. He did so quickly & expertly. Saving me money by not having to buy a tool that I'd use once. So, I spent that savings while i was there. I explained what I was doing. He came back with a suggestion that I never thought of. Saving me much aggravation and lots of time. Ask Ace they know they're stuff.”

“Great group of people. Very knowledgable and more than willing to hear you out in order to help you find the best solution & supplies for your job or project.”
“Lots of good stuff, and I was greeted warmly when I entered the store, but when I needed help finding stuff in the aisles, no one was around. The aisles were sufficiently wide and not blocked with lots of displays. When I did find someone to help, he pointed me in the right direction and helped me realize the store location in the Lowes app on my phone was set incorrectly.”
“Everyone was great, but the store manager who helped me with paint matching was amazing. Very knowledgeable and helpful. Believe his name was Doug. Highly recommend.”
