Great local shop. From gifts and grills, to nuts and bolts, this store has everything you need. The people are extremely friendly, and although the aisles are a little tight, you can't go wrong by shopping here! Get there early and often! read more

I went to Oakland hardware . I was getting advice from and employee about purchasing a new lawn mower. He was very helpful. As we were talking, this younger girl (woman) who was either a manager or owner and very rudely walked over and said " I need my employee" and took him somewhere else in the store. There was no other conversation or apology. Due to this very rude person and terrible customer service, I will not return to that store. There are better options. read more

This outfit has made significant improvements in the last 2-3 years. The employees seem more helpful, more "customer-focused". Whatever they are doing, they should keep it up. read more

I had a self made disaster with my Weber propane grill. The drip pan was filled, I had not checked it and when some hot grease hit the wrong spot, I had a nasty fire in the cabinet that burned out the wiring. I contacted Weber who claims to have a service referral but after 3-4 attempts I gave up. An internet search pointed me to Oakland Ace for the repair. Everyone I dealt with to schedule the repair, receive updates on when Weber would send them the parts and the service tech himself were all 5 star awesome. Superb job was done and I cannot recommend them any higher. Oakland is lucky to have this Ace in town. read more

The store is a pleasure to visit. It became better when converted to ACE.. It's extremely clean, bright and well organized. You have people to talk to. Prices are higher then Home Depot, but it saves time as it's much closer to my hime. read more

Actually, negative 5 stars. Long story short... Between three incompetent employees and the "so-called" manager, they couldn't accurately duplicate a simple car key. What a joke this use-to-be "friendly" NJ neighborhood hardware store has become. Absolutely NOT recommended. I'm happily taking my business elsewhere. Sheesh! read more

I dunno, used to cherish this place under the prior 'administration' now it's just the closest. Think Suffern will have to do from now on. Had some confusion over a sale price noted on the internet and at the register. Instead of helping to clear up the problem I was just given a shrug and the phrase 'it's not on sale'. Decided to skip it and checked my phone once inside the car. Went back to the store and was greeted as "mr happy" (aloud to the whole store) and I showed them the ref to the $2 off and the mentioned checking the sku. Eh, kind of felt laughed at so I will try to spend locally, just elsewhere.... read more

Convenient, helpful, wonderful resource for the projects around the house. I appreciate the fact the staff truly tries to solve a problem if they can. It is rare they don't have what I need and it certainly easier than going to the Orange or Blue warehouse store!! Interesting factoid (I think), I saw the Chairman of Lowe's speak about 5 years ago, he said Home Depot and Lowe's combined only had 26% of the national market share of the home improvement market. Oakland Hardware and all the other local operations (Ace, True Value, 84 Lumber, Menards, Scotty's, etc.) have over 70% market. The majority of Hardware stores are local operators who live and work in the community. NICE!! Thanks for the help guys, keep it up. read more

I really like this hardware store. They have a large selection and the staff is consistently friendly. It's always clean and neat.

Best hardware store PERIOD. Everyone there is knowledgeable and helpful. As a woman, I love walking through the store and seeing all of the items. Once, I was in Bed, Bath and Beyond looking for a flexible plastic soap holder- no luck, but Oakland Hardware had just what I needed and at a fair price. read more

I've gone to Oakland Hardware for the last 30 years, and they always are helpful, have a great in stock selection, at a great price. They are an Old school hardware store, with good friendly service, selection and prices. read more

Boy, there is not a better store around than the local Oakland Hardware. It should really change its name to Oakland Housewares because this place has everything you could ever ask for. A fine selection of not only the screws and tools needed, but also anything i'll need in their auto section or the wide variety of high quality grill equipment there. There's so much in the store that i'm practically lost in a maze every time. Thankfully the guys behind the counter are really good, and know their stuff, and there's always someone in the isles helping to direct me to what I need. The Big Green Egg demonstration they had in October was a hit, and it was a great way to show off just how much your grill matters. A friend of mine bought a Weber there and told me its free assembly and delivery. I'll need to take advantage that of next summer! Oakland Hardware is great, and a fantastic store all around. Its not about helping the little guy here, its the fact that we have a amazing local store that many other communities dont have. read more

Oakland Ace Hardware - Oakland Hardware's Big Green Egg demonstration in 2014. The Event had fantastic food! - Hardware Stores Near Me - Oakland, New Jersey

I went in to Oakland hardware yesterday with a desk lamp that needed a new bulb (Staples wasn't able to help me). They not only had the bulb, the gentleman took the lamp apart & replaced the bulb for me (it took over 10 minutes because part of the lamp was broken). I have to say this guy & Oakland Hardware went way Over & Beyond the call of duty & I really appreciate it. Ken Thimmel read more

Everyone was so needn't to by a Big Egg Grill, everyone was so nice and helpful. They answered all our questions and we never felt rushed. They are so knowledgeable about their products. Would definitely shop there again. read more

Lived here in Wayne and never visited this store . What a great selection of household tools and other items.

Needed a ladder and phoned them to find out the sizes they had, an abrupt young woman answered the phone and put me on hold for full 5 minutes. She then got back on the line and told me the they had a 5 foot, a 7 foot an 8 foot etc. Based on her information, we drove 45 minutes to get there, but only to find out they didn't have a 5 foot. When we inquired who the young woman we spoke with was, the woman we spoke with abruptly and rudely interrupted, to say that it was her we spoke with and that she checked the inventory in her computer, and that's it's not always accurate. My question is, if you know that the computer is not accurate why wouldn't you physically check the store inventory? When we asked a gentleman behind the counter if he is the manager, he replied by saying " I am a nobody" - we then asked for someone to help us find another ladder, they sent us to someone who works in that area and who couldn't be bothered to help us. They are rude, lazy, abrupt, unhelpful and have a nasty attitude Will never shop there again. read more

Very nice customer service at Oakland Hardware Employees were very helpful and pleasant to deal with Especially Joe A ... will be back because of him ... Thank You Mary read more

Better than the big box stores. They almost always have the one thing my hubby needs to finish whatever project he's currently working on. Workers are friendly and help load the bags of salt I get for the eater softener. read more

These guys are lifesavers. When True Value in Franklin Lakes, and Hardware Station in Wyckoff closed, they were going strong. The only "attitude" I encountered was one of helpfulness. These guys helped me find all the stuff I need for every project and offer suggestions to boot. You will not find this in Home Despot of Lowes. And the prices are commensurate with the big box shops. Try em' and you WILL be back. Again and again. Count me as a loyal customer. read more

I've got to give it to them, for the amount of limited shelf space they have compared to the obvious big box elite Super Stores, they've always had what I came in there for and always at a reasonable price. It's nice to see the same familiar faces in there over the years and each has always been helpful. read more

Horrible service staff knows nothing about tools or hardware i went in asking for sheetrock bits staff member was a smart ass and said "any #2 bit works " gave no directions as to where i could find it in the store. Honestly no idea why i went there godwin tool in midland park has more invtory and staff who care and who know hardware and power tools in all dont go to Oakland Hardware not worth your time read more

Outstanding attentive staff. Well stocked with fair prices. So much easier then driving to the two major big box stores. Every town needs an Oakland hardware. read more

It beats driving to the big box store........plus the staff will help with your solution the first time....this is your old school style hardware store. read more

I have been going to Oakland Hardware for YEARS and love Jimmy, George, and Joe. They are always helpful, and they have even delivered stuff to my house at no additional charge! Just yesterday, they gave me recommendations for local guys to come and give me estimates for my gutters. read more

The store has just about anything and everything that you might need. They are most helpful when you need parts or even instructions on things. Love to shop locally and support my hometown businesses.rather than going to the big box stores. They are close, convenient and have just about everything that I might need most of the time. Great store. Jim and the guys are great. read more

I was there three times, got help from store personnel, and three times came home with the WRONG thing!

I gave them 1 star because there is no where to enter no stars. I am working on a project in my home so I decided to run into this store for some supplies, the store help is actually rude not just not helpful. Fortunately for them they do have a large inventory because I cant understand why anyone else would go in there. read more

I have been shopping here for years. The store has a large stock of items and the staff is friendly and helpful in finding just the right item that I am looking for at the time. A longtime member of the local community, I always encourage my friends to shop here too. Check out Oakland Hardware for all your hardware needs! read more

Theyre a tad expensive and none of their stuff ever has price tags on it. But its a super handy place to have around. They seem to have everything you need read more

I know the big home improvement stores are popular but seriously...when you want to get real service from someone who knows what they're talking about, Oakland Hardware is the place. For a small store, they have a pretty big selection of items. I like that they offer services like fixing screens and cutting pipes. Frankly, I just got tired of going into the big stores and trying to find help. read more

One of the best independent hardware stores in the area. Employees were very helpful and pleasant to deal with. Never a problem.

Oakland hardware store is the best local hardware store in the whole area. I have been going to Oakland Hardware for over 13 years and most of the time I find what I need without asking for help. However, if I can't find what I need, the guys that work there are very knowledgeable, friendly and always willing to help out. Even the owner makes himself available, he may not be as enthusiastic as the other guys, but he will point you in the right direction. I wanted to say a special "thanks" to George, because he really helped us out !! My wife had a piece of plexiglass that needed a specific cut and it was very important not to crack it or break it. We brought it into Oakland hardware and spoke to George. He understood the complexity of the problem, gave it some thought, and brought it in the back of the store. Ten minutes later he emerged and had done a perfect cut on the plexiglass. He only charged us a few bucks. We were very pleased and very thankful to George. I have always been a loyal customer at Oakland Hardware and now my wife has joined the ranks. read more

Awesome guys here. Just picked up a Traeger Pro grill and had a great deal going. Stocked to the gills with a lot of great BBQ items.

So glad to have the store in the neighborhood. They pretty much have a little bit of everything. The guys that work there really know their stuff. Joe did a great job rescreening my patio door. He's very passionate about screens. Will Fred helped me fix my computer. He's the man to go to with anything electric. George sharpened my scissors. Now I can cut the hair on my chinny chin Chin with it. And Jim the owner ties it all together. read more

I have been going to this Hardware store for years. THE ONLY REASON I GO IS BECAUSE IT IS CONVENIENT! The staff is so rude, they never offer to help the customers. When you walk in, they do not even acknowledge you, they look the other way. Recently I have gone to another hardware store even though it is out of the way for me. They do not deserve my business. read more

Can't say enough about this store. Staff very helpful and they bailed me out of my project. I tried getting help at Home Depot and that was a lost cause. Couldn't even find someone. And they were not crowded. I was doing business in Bergen County and a friend told me that this store was really good. Thanks for your help and having everything I needed. read more
