“For truck drivers... entrance is the west gate. Pull up to the gate and call the number posted. Pretty easy backing. Unload time is about an hour. Getting to the delivery can have some tight turns but overall not bad.”
“Ace has anything I need and sometimes helps me figure out what’s needed to complete my project. Always helpful. Been going to ace for over 50 years. Thanks Scott.”
“I bought a Toro mower from them this summer, 2025. Friendly and personable people to deal with. Pricing on the mower was great. I'd do business with them again.”
“My furnace went out, so after troubleshooting. I realized I needed an inducer motor. I looked up supply houses and called Jenin. They had what I needed and even went a step further to ask for photos so they can confirm the match. Anything you need from them they are on it. Thank you again, my house is finally warming up.”
“Tele-Tron Ace Hardware Is it convenient neighborhood store with plenty of parking. Stop in here for Hardware as well as repair parts for home, office or small appliances. They have everything needed to fix or repair plumbing, electrical or drywall. They have seasonal garden plants and winter shovels as Chicagoland gets all seasons. Teletron Ace Hardware staff are always welcoming and helpful when needed.”
“I’ve been going here for over 40 years, from when it was a single building, all the way up to the current layout.
They have always been the go to place for those simple things, to those unusual fasteners and Pushmatic breakers. The running joke was, if Len’s didn’t have it, you didn’t need it. Well, with the invention of the internet and stuff, it’s a little less true, but still great for product.
The staff is knowledgeable, friendly, always great with their service department, I love their propane refill service.”
“Very happy with recent service from AG. He replaced a plexiglass storm window panel with bent aluminum frame, and the hardware on a sliding storm window panel from a porch door. Relatively small jobs, but he took care to complete the repairs right and at a low price. Communication throughout the process was also great. Highly recommended.”
“This place is just the best. The prices and selection are as good as and often better than big box stores, and the service is on an entirely different level. They do not hesitate to help with anything you need, from locating items to giving input on products to loading the car. Such a gem!”
“This store is awesome. I have never had a bad experience. I always get the product or help that I need. Everyone is helpful but Sue and Karl are exceptional. They are why I love shopping local small businesses.”
“Nice store. I needed gardening gloves and landscaping waste bags. They were very conveniently placed near the cashier. The gardening glove selection is limited, but I was able to find a pair that fit my hands, and contained a protective leather tip for the index finger. Great for digging around river rocks.
It’s a small store and the selection of product varieties is highly curated. But it’s my first stop to purchase items for my home’s hardware needs.”

“Been going to John & Michael for years. They helped me when I was struggling. Made me feel as if I’m part of O’Leary’s. A goto for anything in construction. I started with a bike & a paint brush 30yrs ago. Mike & John been with me all along the way. Now fixing and building bridges. Kind, professional and inexpensive for any construction needs.”
“You would be surprised at the stuff they carry. I don't think I have had to go to a big box store in a while. I like that there is always someone to help and they are very friendly and knowledgeable.”
“Excellent service on the lighting department. Number one the array of lighting is so fantastic. Each fixture is work of Art. They have a giant computer screen that you can scroll through to see every and any light fixture on the planet is totally enjoyable. My designer at the store is Katie and she was just perfect for me. Excellent communication, relaxed, friendly made it so easy for me to spend my money at Hortons. I will be back and I highly encourage anybody to come to the store it does say Ace hardware Hortons. The lighting is upstairs and the hardware section is downstairs.”
“Here's what I love about Shauer's Hardware: Everything.
From the cast hammer door-pull to the wooden floors, to the back counter where they make keys, it's delightful. They almost always have what I need. The best part is the people who work there. They'll help you find whatever you came in for. They'll help you figure out what you need to get a project done. They're kind and courteous and know their stuff. They've never been patronizing to me (a female DYIer). You don't have to wander around looking for someone to help–THEY find YOU. I always leave there with a smile on my face and my faith in humanity intact. I love this place so much.”
“Clarendon Hills Hardware is truly an old school store, not only they carry a tremendous amount of household required items, all of them are ready to help!! I have always found what I needed there and left with a tremendous sense of warmth and caring!”
“I needed a small pane of glass cut. A man helped me out and cut the proper cut. While there I got to chat with another friendly staff person. I walked around to look for a crystal cabinet knob...but they were all out. The man at the cash register was also friendly and wished me a great day. I felt good shopping here to support a local business rather than the big box store. I will go there again when I am in the neighborhood.”
“I needed something for my car yesterday and I couldn't find it in the automotive section, then a nice man asked me if he could help me, I wish I had gotten his name but it was in a different section. Thanks so much!”

“I went there a while ago to get some parts for my shower faucet and valve. These guys know their stuff, and are happy to give you some really solid advice when you need it most. I definitely recommend using Elmwood Supply!”
“Locked my keys in my car. These guys helped me to get back in AND didn't want to charge me anything. I forced some cash in them (but not enough).
Still some great people in this world who don't stepping in and helping someone in a bind.
BIG THANKS!”
“King’s Hardware is a true neighborhood gem. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and always ready to help you find exactly what you need. The store may not be huge, but it’s well stocked and organized. I appreciate the personal service you just don’t get at big chain stores.”
“Finally a real hardware store.
Needed a tap to fix threads on a bathroom fixture are he was able to give me the proper size, along with a single 2.5mm hex wrench.
Nowhere else could help me.”
“Thanks to the young man who had all the bolts and washers etc ready for me when I showed up. A real stand up young man. Places like this with people who go the extra step make me keep wanting to come back. Thank you again so much”
“Walter and Cedric were awesome. They call to let me know when they will be arriving and was on time. They saw that I was having some difficulty moving things out of my old refrigerator and took care of that for me. Totally wish that more people can be like them. Very hands on. Thank you ,thank you”
“I took in a part to repair a frost proof faucet. The individual who assisted me couldn’t have been more helpful. He provided the necessary parts, assembled them so all I needed was to reinsert the part back into the sleeve and tighten. I was provided exceptional service and encourage anyone needing plumbing supplies to shop here.”

“Was looking for a simple tool to scrape paint from windows. Had tried a few places without success. Popped into Yu, and the gent was a magician. First showed me scrapers for putty from walls. Turned around and he had 3 options for paint. Bought the cheapest one at $7, and it works perfectly!”
“I always give ace hardware my business ! They have knowledgeable employees who bend over backwards to help you ! I'm a personal chef and I get my knives sharpened their. No matter what store you patronize the employees are really nice.”
“The absolute best customer service and the friendliest staff. Very down to earth, extremely knowledgeable, and genuinely seems to love what they do. The best location I’ve been to so far. Keep up the amazing job!”
“I don't know much about the product sold here at this store, but my brother wanted some welding supplies for his birthday. The man that helped out on the phone, Ted, was incredibly nice and respectful. He was very knowledgeable about which helmet, jacket, and gloves to buy. He was able to order everything, and he got all six items I ordered in less than a week. My sister and I picked up the items and Carlos got the order, and explained to us the return policy and was very helpful with all of our questions. I definitely plan on coming back to this location specifically. The gentlemen here are so polite and helpful in getting all the best quality items ordered for what I was looking to spend. I highly recommend coming here!”
