Simple and to the point; the return policy thus place has is ridiculous to me. If I purchase anything and don't use it why will you not accept your own products back. People may make a mistake or simple change their mind. ACE reevaluate this policy or return business will not be.. for me anyway read more

Good guys, opened up a little early for me today. Old school service. In and out quickly. Thanks read more

The service is always stellar! They speak to you as you enter the store. Very helpful. And if they don't offer the item you are looking for, they will suggest another ACE. They can make a replacement window screen in a day or two! Super fast, super accurate! read more

They do quick and affordable screen repair, are very friendly, and HAVE A LITTLE GREY STORE CAT NAMED MOON. This is the best hardware store I've been to in the city. read more

It is difficult to gave a hardware store a good review when one checks online to check the store hours, runs out the door to get get the errand completed, only to find out that the ownership decided to not open up on August 19, 2012. We do not go to this store for anything except their elite brand of drain-unclogger. The stuff can cut through anything with boiling water rushing down the drain after it. Their staff turned us onto this drain-unclogger and made a recommendation on how to use it. That was a great interaction, but you've got to keep normal hours in the future. Especially when you are on the Oak Park side of the Oak Park/ Chicago border. read more

P J's Ace Hardware - Closed the day I need you open. - Hardware Stores Near Me - Oak Park, Illinois

Great customer service, extremely knowledgeable can usually find what you need and if they cannot meet your need, will recommend where you may locate the item. I have used them for years. Screen repairs done quickly and at a fair price. read more

attitude, stand off ish, as a veteran, calling for American flags got passed around. Same little bit too comfortable with their business, maybe lack of competition Certainly lacks Customer Service read more

PJs is close, they are so friendly and helpful, not crabby about my dumb questions and they have such reasonable prices for glazing windows and replacing screens. read more

The staff is so friendly and helpful! My teen was looking for bailing wire for an art project and 4 staff members came over to help us. They didn't have what we needed but offered lots of options and suggested another store to try. Shop locals folks, keep this great local shop in business! read more

I just needed some tape to seal my new shower head and a wrench. The dude in there made my day by not treating me like a soft handed lady who couldn't possible understand how to use a tool. That's super rare. I'll be back. read more

I went here to have my door screen repaired. Pleased love opening my door and see a new screen. Bravo Ace!

Incredibly helpful, friendly staff. You always know that you're dealing with a business that cares about its customers when you go in and ask, "Um, yeah, I need this harness thingy so that I can put my window-unit air conditioner in without it falling down three stories onto some unsuspecting passer-by," and instead of looking at you like you're a whack job (admittedly, I am), they look around and find something comparable to your poorly-described need. Friendly, helpful, and they had what I needed. There's not much more I could ask for from a hardware store within walking distance from my apartment. read more

It's not huge but odds are they have what you need here. Good deals on window and screen repair. Knowledgeable employees mean you can get the right piece the first time. I always go here first and most of the time find what I'm looking for. read more

They repair windows and screens for a fair price and quickly. The staff is friendly and helpful. This is important since it's not always easy to find what you're looking for, as with many small hardware stores the selections are limited, so ask for help. read more

So kind! A plumber wanted to charge me $185 to fix a slow leak in my kitchen sink. I thought the issue was straight forward, and it was. The kind man who was running the front desk and store helped me find exactly the fixtures I needed and the other little things I needed that day. He didn't even flinch when I told him I was "the man" who was fixing the sink, he smiled encouragingly. He even trimmed the PVC pipe for me because I brought in the failed fixture that I was replacing. So kind!!! (I mentioned I didn't have a saw.) I was in and out in 10 minutes. Also, word to the wise, you CAN park against the wall in the same parking lot as Enterprise rental car rather that pay for metered parking. This is my new first stop hardware store!!! Thank you!!! read more

What a great family hardware store. I was greeted immediately and taken directly to the items I needed. It is very nice to have a local store that is so helpful. Now I have been here three times and every time I get great service. read more

I love this hardware store, it's right around the corner from where I live walking distance and the people are very friendly and well informed. I recommend this place to everyone, it has everything you need! read more

What a great neighborhood hardware store! We've been frequenting Pj's for about 8 years and are grateful that Clyde and his crew are nearby. They have rescreened doors, put glass in windows and in general been conveniently located for most of our needs. If Clyde weren't there, we'd be driving, driving, driving to the big box store, not shopping locally and not having a satisfying interaction shopping in our community. That's what makes a community, right. they may not have exactly what we're looking for all the time, but we're willing to improvise to keep the store going, otherwise what's the alternative, a blighted neighborhood, that isn't walkable and another car on the road polluting. If I wanted to drive everywhere, I'd have moved to the burbs. Thanks! read more

P.J.'s Ace Hardware is the most wonderful resource. The service we have had there is unparalleled. Clyde, the owner, will help you find anything you need. If he can't find it in his store, he will either find it at Corporate and give you the best price he can, or he will advise you where you will find it. For example, yesterday I was in his store picking up something I ordered, when a woman came in to have some knives sharpened. They don't do that at his place but he told that woman exactly where she could find someone to do that in the next suburb to ours. Who does that any more? He is so mannerly and kind and professional at the same time. He knows his business. We are really fortunate to have him in our community. His level of service is a testimonial to the value of having a locally owned business in a community. To see his customers are taken care of, Clyde goes out of his way. read more

Don't even bother to ask if they have anything. They don't want to be inconvenienced by your questions. No one In the store except me and two employees. You would think they would be more then helpful. Guess not. read more

A nice neighborhood hardware store. Staff is always friendly, seemingly happy to see me, and very helpful. Why would I waste time driving to one of the jumbo stores when I have this Ace hardware close to home? read more

A great little hardware store with helpful and friendly employees. Clyde the owner is very knowledgeable and always willing to help with advice. He will drop everything to help you solve a problem including manufacturing a very custom solution using a pipe cutter, threader and elbow joints (worked perfectly.). The store is a little thin on inventory but flush with enthusiasm and good will. Good place to get glass cut and keys made. read more

Went into the store with two broken storm windows and it costed 1/2 the price that the window manufacture attempted to charge me. This place have everything imaginable. Great pricing. read more

Great store! The staff is very friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The best Ace I've been to.

This Oak Park neighborhood hardware store is the best place for keys, window screens, glass, a big selection of hardware, household goods, and great advice on how to fix stuff. read more

This is a wonderful neighborhood store ! Clyde, the owner, can tell you anything you need to know about building repairs. I highly recommend this store. read more

It's amazing that this place is still in business. Inventory is pathetic, and service is even worse. Should just be a matter of time until Ace yanks their franchise. You're better off going to Dressels Hardware right down Chicago Ave at Harlem. read more
