Celebrating our 101st Year!
Beulah at our Selfie Booth at the Laurel Ace Grows UP event!
In 2022, Laurel Ace celebrated our 101st year in Oakland/on MacArthur Blvd with a Laurel Ace Grows UP Celebration October 28-30, recognizing our new 2nd floor of retail space with a 3-day celebration! We continue to be #AceHelpful with even more products for our neighborhood customers in 2023! HAVE YOU BEEN UPSTAIRS YET?!? We’re delighted to have almost DOUBLED our retail space by converting our upstairs level for more products for you!

Fundraising for UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals.
THANK YOU for helping us raise over $12,000 in holiday fundraising for our local CMN Hospital, UCSF Benioff Children’s Hospitals in Oakland & SF! THANK YOU! Please consider rounding-up your change through the end of the month as we “Round Up for Reading” in January. When you shop with us this month, we’ll ask if you want to round up your change to buy books for the Ace “Building Blocks of Literacy” program, giving free books to the patients and their siblings at Oakland Children’s Hospital. Those pennies do make a difference for the kids – thank you for helping us help our local CMN hospital!
We have been grateful to remain Forever Essential & Always Helpful during the pandemic, and we offer mask-less ordering and pickup when you order from AceHardware.com.

We’ve put the finishing touches on our upper deck – come check it out! We’re delighted to have MORE products and GREATER service for you at Laurel Ace, with a new 2nd floor, nearly doubling our retail space for more products for your hardware needs in The Laurel!
And with that, we’ve created a better showcase for our GREAT selection of Weber Grills, Green Mountain Grills, Big Green Eggs, and Traegers! Come visit us to see what’s in store at Laurel Ace! And thank you to all who joined us for our Laurel Ace Grows UP party! Learn more here!
Our goals: Better Service, Better Selection in the BEST Neighborhood!
Oakland has counted on Laurel Ace Hardware for over a century, and since announcing new management in April 2017, the new owners have reinvested in the community to continue the Century-Long tradition of service for our Laurel District neighbors!
We’ve expanded our sales floor upstairs: our Tools, Plumbing and Electrical sections moved upstairs, along with Fasteners, Automotive, Storage, Light Bulbs, and much more!
Thank you to all our neighbors who have recommended us on Nextdoor, Yelp, Google, Facebook, and via the back of your register receipt! We listen to every single review and are delighted that we have delighted so many of you with our five-star service! Check out some recent recommendations here!
Changes & Continuity!
- We expanded our selections of the things you want most with our new 2nd Floor! (Yes Plumbing is featured prominently!)
- You’ll find the best of the familiar faces at Laurel Ace, with great helpful new team members joining our legacy team.
- Store manager Andrew, and Assistant Manager Christina (promoted from our Pittsburg Ace store), are overseeing a great team of legacy team members, committed returnees, and new staff.
- We put up a new exterior sign and new awnings after painting the outside of the store recently.
