Ace Hardware Proctor

Ace is definitely our favorite ‘helpful hardware’ store. I will admit that I do go to some of the other stores in the area from time to time when shopping around or just looking for inspiration, but for certain things I don’t go anywhere else.
Like KEY COPIES! They — especially this location — make the best copies at the beach. When we were going overseas late last year we needed to give a key to the pet-​sitter who would be taking care of our furry child. Sent husband to get the copy while I was working. First mistake, he didn’t go to Ace. Second mistake, he didn’t test the key to make sure it worked before we left! Needless to say, crazy coordination efforts ensued and everything worked out, but I will not let him forget that for a while.
We were in the need of additional copies (again) and I decided to handle it myself. Ran out this morning to our neighborhood store and was immediately greeted by a helpful employee. She hand cut my keys and told me if they didn’t work to bring them back and they would cut them again. Got home and they both worked with no issues at all.
The attention you get here as a customer is so much warmer than any person typically offers when going to one of the bigger big-​box stores. And it’s that attention that will keep me coming back.

A «helpful hardware» store. The store is well-​laid out, clean and organized. The employees are helpful and knowledgeable. While you might find lower prices at the big box store, this store is convenient to Ponte Vedra residents who don’t feel like wandering through acres of aisles trying to find things on their own.

This Ace Hardware is a great place for most things home related. This part of Florida… Home Depot, or Target is a bit of a trip/​drive, so this place comes in handy for any home hardware, related items.
I have stopped in here a few time for things for my grill, garden, and even a gallon of paint. The staff is very helpful and knowledgable. Price are fair and reasonable. Selection of products is good.
My one critique (you gotta have one for a fair review) is that the garden center area was kinda lacking in selection… it was pretty sparse. There is another Ace Hardware stores in Mandarin, with a much, much larger garden section. But, thats ok… I didn’t come to this store for that reason.
Support a local business… visit this Ace Hardware!
