“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.”
“The staff is very friendly and helpful with finding any items. They've helped me problem solve my specific issues. And the store has a surprisingly large number of products available!”
“Maria was so helpful and helped me find everything I needed very quickly! I’m so appreciative of her help. This store has everything you could need when you’re looking for any tools, paint, caulk, etc. Skip the big chains and stay local!”
“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.”
“The workers were kind and willing to walk me directly to the items that I needed. I really appreciate this because I am a senior living with disabilities and it is too painful wandering around looking to find what I need. Thank you 😊”
“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.”
“David at Ace Hardware is an absolute lifesaver! I was on a mission to find a very specific screw, and honestly, I was starting to lose hope. David didn't just point me in a direction; he walked me over, listened carefully to what I needed, and somehow knew *exactly* which obscure screw it was. David’s knowledge and patience were incredible. Ace Hardware is lucky to have him!”
“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.”
“My AC was leaking and had Antonio come resolve the issue. He was prompt and respectful. Fully explained what happened and how to prevent it in the future. As anyone knows it’s difficult to someone you can always rely on but AnyTemp has been my go to for HVAC related issues since recently installing a new furnace for me. All their employees are knowledgeable and take their time to explain what’s going on which is greatly appreciated. Fantastic work and value.”
“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!”
“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.”
“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.”
“Stopped in for stilh change saw parts. Unfortunately they didn't have them but the parts guy behind the counter recommended a place to get the parts i needed. They are always friendly at Ace and truly care about customers.”
“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 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 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.”
“We hired Kitchen & Bath Mart to do a full remodel of both our kitchen and bathroom and we could not be happier with the results! Krysti was our designer and she made everything so easy and was a pleasure to work with. We have an almost 100 year old home and her designs made great use of our small, quirky spaces. Bogdan did the install and his work was immaculate! He had both the kitchen and bathroom projects going at the same time and Krysti would come by to check on progress at each step, so everything went smoothly. It felt like no time at all that the work was completed and our old home had some new life.
Do yourself a favor and hire KBMart!”

“Great neighborhood home improvement store for your DIY need or contractors in need of a fast item instead of driving to the other stores. Thank you ACE saved me like 20 min in rush hour driving. Needed Insulation Spray Foam in a can was able to get that with ease and be back home in 10 min. If I choosed to go to the other store it would of been at least a 45min trip”
“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!”
“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.”
“Excellent customer service. Arturo went above and beyond in helping me with both a purchase and return. I tried into harbor freight for the excellent value, but I keep coming back because of the excellent service. Well done, guys.”
“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.”
“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.”
“We come here pretty often for home improvement supplies and even plants for the garden. On my latest visit, Patrick in the paint department was a huge help when I was working on my bathroom cabinet. He recommended the right primer color and saved me from probably having to apply several unnecessary coats. Really appreciated the advice and helpful service. Thanks, Patrick!”
