New to town and clueless about hardware, I picked Master's Hardware because Google Maps listed it…read moreas the closest store to my house, and for the likelihood that it would be smaller and easier to navigate than Lowe's or Home Depot. Luckily, my guess was on the money. My visit to Master's Hardware was friendly, efficient, and informative. Unlike some hardware stores, where you're left to fend for yourself, Master's Hardware helps you pick up everything you need in a very non-salesy, unobtrusive way. For nails, wall anchors, lighting pull-chain extensions, and all your other little moving needs, Master's will do the trick. Not sure about bigger projects, so you might want to call ahead if you're planning serious renovations or, I don't know, demolition. If you're clueless like me, this is the place to go.

Masters Hardware is a classic old fashioned hardware store in the very best way.

The friend mentioned Salik's and said, while it doesn't have everything, they have enough to make it worthwhile going there. Parking was easy - right in front of the store. Nice to see someone right behind a counter asking if they can help you. Try getting that at Home Depot or Lowe's. The price for the doorknob was right and the product worked out just fine. Went back for extra keys - a little more pricey than the aforementioned big box stores. But to save having to drive around the city for just one thing? Priceless! Go to Salik's if you're in the East End and want to support a local business instead of a big box.

I found out that this location offers a wide range of party rental equipment including the large inflatable children's bouncy slides etc. I like that they carry products that are not available in the box stores and that there is plenty of help within eye shot if needed.

It's amazing that a regular-sized store holds an inventory that has accommodated my needs every time I've been there. This week it was a faucet washer that a staff person very carefully measured against my faulty one - and bingo, I had what I needed. The simple neighborliness of that interaction is what I value most - friendliness and competence joining together to solve problems! Way to go, Ace Hardware Oakmont! Highly recommended!

My husband rented a pick up truck from them to transport some wall paneling. The customer service was top notch and the rental was very reasonably priced. 2. During the previous experience, my husband purchased some paint. When I sampled it on the wall, it was completely different than what I thought it would be. We took the tinted paint back and the paint team member, Steve (I think), was so kind. He let us pick a new color and did an even exchange, no questions asked. Overall, 2 great experiences and will def wining return for our DIY projects.
