If you just need something fast without the crowds at the big store stop here they most likely have it.

The first time I went there was fine. Second time I went there to make a spare keys, he made 2 wrong ones out of 3. I really needed those today and had no time to go back since I dont have a car. I called the store and talked to the old guy who I think he is the owner, he just kept saying to double check but of course Im calling because I tried few times to see if the new spare keys works or not and HE HANG UP ON THE PHONE! when things goes wrong he cant take it and expects the bad customer service.

Nice small place, but its packed with items. Thats a good thing, theres plenty of selection and its much closer to me than any other hardware store. The place has character and the guy who runs it is cool.

Has everything you need. Noticed many times that items are priced better than the large big box retailer and right in the area.

Love the old style service....i needed 2 storm windows repaired..i walked in, a nice gentleman asked what i needed, i gave him my windows and he took my name and number and wrote it on a piece of tape that he attached to the windows. then he says itll be ready Tuesday or Wednesday. he told me to give him a call wed. i called wed and said they were done. fully functional and looking good and strong....all for$20...great deal...Ive lived in the city of Chicago for 55yrs and thank God that these type of old school businesses are still around...GREAT PLACE!!!!!

I just had the pleasure of working with Dennis at this amazing true value. He is truly one of kind in his knowledge and exceptional customer service. I was searching for a cylinder lock for my sliding patio door that I could not find at Home Depot Lowe’s or menards. I showed Dennis and he spent 10 minutes searching the catalog trying to find this unique lock and sure enough he did! He even took the additional step to punch out the lock opening in the handle. So impressed and appreciative. If you live in portage park and need some hardware look no where else.

Best place to get anything done that Im doing for the first time. They should do YouTube videos because they can explain the use of anything they sell. If you want to buy hardware and have questions DONT GO TO A BIG BOX STORE! GO HERE!!
