Great customer service! I worked at my Aunt's hardware store in Platteville, Wisconsin for 2 years in highschool so I know my hardware. My Aunt is in her 90's and still works there. Clark Devon Hardware Store is the best 1 to 1 helpful service store in the Chicago area. I highly recommend it. Just went there to have a screen repaired in a jiffy! Just love the place....
They have pretty much everything a homeowner needs and then some. Prices are good, and for household cleaning supplies even better than Target and the supermarkets. Checkout is quick and efficient. But the best thing about this store is their staff: these guys are on the ball, they know what I need even when I don't, they know where it is, and they don't try to sell me stuff I don't need.
I was able to get in and out in a fair amount of time and they had everything I neededone of the best little unknown hardware stores I've ever been to
Great place, the best customer service in the hardware business, very knowledgeable staff.
The rental center is terrible. I run a business and they screwed up ever single aspect of the rental. No part of this was good customer service after I called them out. No apology, discount or have they even returned my deposit after five days. No follow up with the issues, nothing. The list goes on and on for this department. I won't use their rental department again. Take some lessons from Home Depot, guys.
Kimberly was an angel. I had difficulties finding the right key blank and the amount of detail and work put into my query was above and beyond what I expected. Thank you so much! Even if you did not sell the key I needed, I was still treated like a valuable customer.
Reasonable price for glass, excellent service!!! Deserves 5 stars!!!!
They have everything you need, including, Excellent service!!!
the selection, help, dependability and prices are seriously better than Amazon. love this joint!
I love this controlled chaos of this store. The staff are genuine, friendly and appear to remain employed there for a long time which is always a good sign to me. I had a recent experience with a rented upholstery cleaner and the representative was so helpful with operation and timeline in which I could use the machine. Proud for CDH to be in my neighborhood.
Staff was rude.been here asking for vanity bulbs,told the guy my vanity got 10 bulbs,he said no typically it's 6.i don't think it's his business to know how many i should buy and he does not see my vanity all he has to do is just give me 10 bulbs.he was just lazy to open another box coz there are 4 bulbs in 1 box.
If don't find what you need there you won't find it anywhere else sorry 9 out of ten they are going to have it my only problem is the drive but it's worth it
Very helpful and knowledgeable staff. I was looking for hardware for my bi-fold doors and they took the time to help me locate all the items I needed.
Best hardware store in the area for finding exactly what you want. Employees are friendly and knowledgeable.
The go-to place to get your car keys made. The staff is friendly, helpful, and patient. They go to your car to try out the key they made and if it doesn't function as should, they shave it on another machine and try it out. It works. Sure it gets busy and you have to wait in line, but once you are helped you get the best customer service there is. They listen to you to give you the best help and are not focusing on the long lines because it is a hardware store and not a checkout counter in a department store. They also stock rare hard to find items for old buildings. It seems a small store from the outside but it stocks an unimaginable amount of stuff you won't find in big box home improvement and they are also within a walking distance if you need small items.
One of the few surviving local hardware stores and one of the best. Great service all around. Highly recommended and a reason why you should support local businesses
Nice and friendly staff, what you'd expect at small hardware store i guess
I love supporting small businesses and Clark-Devon Hardware embodies why I love shopping small. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The reason I took the time to write a review was due the amazing service I've received from Cindy. I came in with a shelf I've had for months and finally felt ready to tackle. She found the most appropriate hardware for me and walked me through how to install it. I messed up with my anchors and placement in my wall and returned two days later for more anchors. This will be my first stop whenever I'm doing home repairs.
Certainly the most helpful and friendly staff, every time.
Everyone in here is extremely helpful. My neighbor has a pest problem and I'm getting the extra "guests". They stood in the isle with me over 20 minutes explaining what would be the best purchase for me. The definitely have me as a new customer.
Incredibly helpful for any project! Great service and great prices!
They charge you for any alterations not less then 10 bugs and Home depot do free of cost
Friendly & knowledgeable staff always willing to help & go the extra distance to make sure you are satisfied.
Clark and Devon's staff know how things work. Go there if you need any sort of advice or general maintenance knowledge. Great place for landlords too!
Great selection of hard to find items and staff that is both friendly and knowledgeable. Highly recommended.
Awesome place, very helpful staff, which is a good thing, because the store is packed tight.
This is a Great hardware store. Gary better than the big box stores.
Someone said they have decent prices. I asked to copy my car key. They said it's $110. And you don't have to program my keys just move inner electronics to the new case
Like an old fashioned...amazing personal service. They do it all, including repairs. Best hardware store on north side.
I find it always difficult to find someone to help me at this store. The staff often appear too busy to help and most recently the paint/varnish department salesman said, 'I don't have time, I'm in the middle of an order'. Not sure if this is an understaffing issue. This store is well set up for someone who knows exactly what products they need and where they are located. For someone inexperienced, needing any advice or product knowledge, I found the service disappointing and unacceptable. I also have found the kindness/politeness of some of the male employees to be frustrating. I'm a novice in my product knowledge, not a dummy and it's their job to assist me in making an educated purchase. I hope this is something that can be improved with better management and priorities.
Wonderful store! Had everything I needed and more and everyone is SO friendly and helpful. I had a vague idea of what I was doing but with the help of the young man (Dave) who cut my wood I came home with a piece that fit like a glove! I couldn't be happier and highly recommend them!
Great local hardware store with some strong specialties, including locks and keys and lighting. Extensive tools and rentals and the staff is helpful if you can get their attention.
I ve yet to come here and not find what I need. From tools I need for my job, to everyday odds and ends, this place has always delivered. The staff is always quick to accommodate, and friendly.
Knowledgeable, helpful staff. When I've had home repair problems, from a non-working doorbell to a kitchen sink problem, they've had advise and solutions.
Clark Devon hardware. Is very unique classic Place anything that you don't find somewhere else at Clark and Devon Hardware they have it. Very nice employees very knowledgeable. I like it
Incredible place ! Always has what I need. Very helpful staff. Local Chicago spirit is evident in the employees and the store itself. Support your local business!
I went there to copy my key. It's was so fast less than 1 min and cheap less thane $2. I recommend this place.
It is great to have a local hardware store and with a pretty good amount of things.
Everyone who works there knows everything about EVERYTHING in the store ! Always very friendly and willing to help.
Truly handy for a handyman & professionals too. Love the service.
GR8 FOR ALL YOUR HARDWARE NEEDS, THE MOST KNOWLEDGEABLE STAFF. SERVICE IS WHAT YOU GET.
If you don't know about Clark Devon then you don't know Jack! They may not have 20 of every weird hardware item, but I swear they have at least one of EVERYTHING, no matter how obscure. The locksmith ppl could be a whole separate store and still both stores would thrive. If you are used to Home Depot then your first trip to Clark Devon may be confusing, maze-like or you may just get lost or mesmerized by how many different items they have. Just spending an hour looking at every aisle you will find answers to problems you never knew you could fix!
Very helpful staff, helped me find dimmer switch and light bulbs I needed
Wonderfully helpful and unfailingly kind staff, first and foremost. Whatever bizarre or old-school hardware request you make, they have it. This is a REAL hardware store. (And tiny brown paper bags for screws, too, which I love.) Park north of the building, in their free lot.
I just moved to the neighborhood so I ve been here about 4 times this week, and every single time I ve been helped promptly by very knowledgeable experts, who went out of their way to make sure I had what I needed and even fixed a faucet adapter for me free of charge. Outstanding oldschool hardware store with great selection
This place is great, a hardware store that is focused on customer service.
Where to start from the staff they know their stuff which makes it good. When you need a 30 year old seat washer that's not made anymore they'll have it. Its a wonder no ones made a documentary on them. No bias just been using them for a long time.
It's a well stocked, old fashioned hardware store where the people there really know their stuff and where you should go to find the things you need the big box stores don't have. It's a gem.
I've been coming to the Clark Devon store for 30 years. They are well stocked with everything that you think they should have; plus hard to find items. What separates them from the competition is their knowledgeable staff that is available in every section of the store. The best!
Well stocked, friendly local hardware store. Be careful where you park, the lot bordering Clark Street is pay to park and is vigilantly patrolled- they have a smaller lot around the side that is free, but often pretty full. Their prices can be hit or miss, but they definitely have what you need.
The paint department shook several cans of paint for me without charge. 3 cans were good to use, while the others need to disposed of. Staff is very helpful. Bus accessible, free parking and adjacent metered parking.
Very knowledgeable and friendly staff at this locally owned hardware...and they've got EVERYTHING.
A hardware store that actually has hardware! Knowledgeable staff too.
Parking in the back. Great place. I miss going here all the time.
Great and friendly service Fixed all my Storm windows perfectly
Good helpful staff, too bad they twice ran out of ice melt at crucial times of need, that is poor planning
Absolutely love this store. The staff is always friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. You have but to ask and they'll help you find what you're looking for. If you walk in and say, "I called about..." they'll remember that you called. They really are one of the best hardware stores in the neighborhood.
This is the best place to buy any good stuff I love Clark Devon Hardware.
I like this place... they are always very helpful!!
Workers thinks they are doing a favor for the customers, most of them with attitude, rude, lack of customers communication, I would not go back even if they are given stuff for free.
If you need advice orsomething for your vintage home, rely on the employees of this old-fashioned hardware store.
Had a couple of keys made here - neither work and they almost got stuck in my locks. You can see that the key isn't quite the same as the copy I gave them. Kinda ridiculous that they had a guy manually cut my key instead of having a machine that copies it in 2018.
Excellent neighborhood hardware store. Everything you need, close by. Interesting side note ... This store was originally a movie theater (a long time ago).
A fantastic neighborhood hardware store. The way they used to be!
Best hardware store on the north side! The folks who work here love to help. It's always a pleasant experience to go there. They repair screens, make shelves -- full service.
Everything that you will ever need in Hardware, and the most helpful & friendly employees!
I shop at your store often for my construction sites, and I always seek out Renee she is very knowledgeable and knows where everything is at and is always always so nice and professional, . Thanks Renee
Great people, great selection, easy returns, parking lot, highly recommend!
This genuine hardware store has a perfect balance of helping you or letting you browse and I as a short round 60 year old female am always treated properly respect but no condescension
Knowledgeable and friendly. I didn't have my receipt, but he was able to find it on the computer and give me my refund. Don't think that would have happened at Walmart...
People there very helpful, they knew what isle to direct you for whatever was needed.
