Twain Harte Lumber & Hardware Inc. has been a family owned Business since 1979. Our goal is to consistently meet the changing needs and desires of our customers and providing quality products and services at competitive prices. While doing so, still maintaining the old fashioned Hardware Store atmosphere and delivering the level of customer service you've come to expect.
What began as a small chain of stores established by a group of Chicago-area retailers in 1924 has evolved into one of the nation's leading "helpful hardware" dealer-owned cooperatives.
Throughout the course of its more than 80 years in business, Ace has grown from a few Chicago-area hardware stores, to include more than 4,700 stores in 50 states and more than 70 countries. Yet one thing has remained unchanged - Ace's commitment to delivering helpful hardware service to consumers.
