If you are planning to purchase any Stihl equipment, I highly recommend visiting Sean at Allerdice…read moreAce Hardware on Rt 9 in Malta NY. Not only is he very knowledgeable about the product line, he is very friendly and personable. Sean goes beyond just being 'helpful' and really wants to make sure you make the right choice for what you need. I got a great deal on a battery saw (MSA 220 C-B), charger, and two free AP 300 batteries. He also gladly switched out the bar to a 16" for me. Thank you !

The response from the stores: This is something that happens. I also used a "reward" for this purchase and apparently have now lost that. The response from the store: There is nothing we can do.

Purchased a sthil tool for my husband but he ended up not wanting it. Tried to return it to the…read morestore within the 30 days as stated on the website and with the app. The return was refused because they are an independent store and they have a 7 day return policy. So even though they carry the Ace name on the building they are not obligated to follow return policies as set forth "by Ace". No where do they tell you that information while making hundreds of dollars worth in a purchase. There are no corporate stores so this will happen with ALL in store purchases at Ace.. the girl at the register proudly pointed out her shirt that was for HATCHET HARDWARE NOT ACE HARDWARE. I try to buy from local businesses but I will never go there again. BUYER BEWARE!!! TOTAL SCAM OF A BUSINESS.

A Hardware Store on Steroids!…read more Our first visit to Hatchet Hardware of Troy was for some plumbing parts. When we first walked in, my thoughts were, 'they're not going to have plumbing parts...' I was totally wrong. This hardware store has it all - everything you expect in a local hardware store and then some. The entry to the store is filled with unique items for your home, trinkets, and gifts. It's a visual delight. Then you get into the heart of the store and there you'll find housewares and small appliances, landscape supplies, light bulbs...the list goes on. They even offer refills of cleaning supplies for environmentally conscious shoppers. Don't forget about upstairs which houses the plumbing supplies amongst other things. What's even better is the staff is friendly and helpful. If you haven't been yet, check it out!

Over a year later under new ownership and I am still coming back. Their prices might have seemed…read morehigher than the old Ace prices, but everywhere you look in this world things cost more and their prices are in line with the big box stores. Sometimes even lower. That really doesn't matter though, because the helpful service I receive here more than makes up for a few extra pennies. The staff are super friendly and have helped me with lots of projects along the way. I needed a weird part that wasn't available anywhere else and they found it for me in their storeroom and gifted it to me. I needed a certain type of paint on a holiday-eve and they spent the extra time going through their stash to find a suitable product. When the entire northeast region is out of salt and they have a shipment coming in, they were willing to make arrangements so that some was waiting for me when I showed up that evening. And when I need advice (and honestly, it seems to be always) they are a lot more reliable and useful than trying to randomly search Youtube. It is the smaller hardware stores that provide what most do it yourselfers (read: amateurs) really need: attention. Because of that, I will keep coming back to here.

This is no longer Shaker Hardware! There is apparently new ownership, and the name is changed to…read moreChance's Hardware. I normally would not be in a hurry to write about a hardware store that is not near my house. How often would I likely be to visit it again? But this store caught my attention when I saw an ad for them on TV. They claimed that they have items not found in other stores. They also emphasized that they offer friendly and readily available service. Today, in search of a particular style cabinet knob, after nothing met my wife's satisfaction in Lowe's, Home Depot, and several other stores, we tried Chance's on our way through Latham. The first thing we noticed was a friendly greeting from an employee helping another customer in the parking lot. Walking through the store we saw everything very well organized and nicely displayed in a clean environment. Once we found what we were in search of, we met that same welcoming employee (owner?) from the parking lot on our way to the register. He was truly friendly and made the shopping experience a pleasure. The item we purchased could have been ordered for less from Lowe's, but it was not available today and we've never received such a sincere welcome in any big-box store. There is definitely truth in advertising from Chance's Hardware store.

I personally like that the store has a sort of corner shop vibe although it's not exactly small. The store is airways well lit and aisles are clearly labeled, and again the staff here have been exceptionally helpful. The news BBQ section in the back atrium is impressive even if I'm not the biggest cook in the family. And I also saw a custom shirt section although by the looks of it, I may be able to customise more than t-shirts. I hope they keep improving and stay open for a long time.

However, today was first time I used their Curbside Pickup option. I placed an order online and paid for it. Next day I drove up, and called store to let them know I wanted curbside pick up. I was told to drive around back. A staff member was out in two minutes with my order. I was asked where I wanted him to put the order. I signed a paper acknowledging I received items. Then I was given my receipt and thanked for my business. Start to finish once I arrived at store was less than 6 minutes. Efficient process. I drove off to continue running errands.
