ACE HARDWARE AND HOME CENTER

Hours: Mon - Sat (8-9) Sun (9-6).

While many hardware stores are now gone, Ace continues to flourish thanks to its hardworking associates and loyal customers.

Ace Hardware & Hearth in Glen Burnie and Pasadena and Ace Home & Leisure in Edgewater have served customers in Maryland for more than 30 years. Ace Hardware & Hearth and Ace Home & Leisure are now owned solely by Pete and Michele Peterson. Presently, the Petersons have three store locations in Maryland and supply seasonal products such as fireplaces, stoves, venting, wood, pellets, water-conditioning salt, birder supplies, pool chemicals, fertilizers and other commodities.

With help from Kero-Suns' legal team, Pete was the key figure in getting the Maryland state fire code overturned and Senate Bill 598 passed to allow citizens of Maryland to legally use kerosene heaters in their homes. With now nearly 100 employees, Ace Hardware & Hearth and Ace Home & Leisure are poised for growth. Ace thanks its loyal customers for their faithful support that has made Ace the place where "Helpful” can be found.

Ace Hardware & Hearth located in Glen Burnie and Pasadena, Maryland, and Ace Home & Leisure in Edgewater are your helpful places for everything you need from fireplaces, spas and saunas, to hardware, birder supplies and lawn & garden supplies. Ace Hardware Village became nationally known to many because it was through the persistent efforts of co-owner Pete Peterson that kerosene heaters became legal in Maryland.
