Renovations to the space will begin in the summer of 2024, said the firm, with an anticipated soft opening by late 2024.

“We are thrilled to show our new customers in Agoura Hills how we live the ‘Ace Helpful Promise’ every day through reliable service, helpful advice, and the products they need to get their projects done right,” said Joe Jeffries, president and CEO of Westlake Ace Hardware.

In southern California, Westlake Ace currently owns and operates six locations in La Crescenta, Porter Ranch, South Pasadena, Thousand Oaks, Van Nuys, and West LA.

In addition to the new Agoura Hills location, the hardware retailer reported that it plans to open stores in Glendale, Placentia and Simi Valley in 2024.

The new store will offer services such as key cutting, automotive key fob replacement, and propane tank exchange; and Ace Hardware of Agoura Hills said it will also sell lawn and garden supplies, fasteners, tools, plumbing and electrical supplies.

The store will feature several specialty departments and store-within-a-store concepts, selling brands such as: Benjamin Moore and Magnolia Home by Joanna Gaines paints; Stihl, Ego and Milwaukee outdoor power equipment; Milwaukee, DeWalt and Craftsman power tools; and more.

Ace Hardware of Agoura Hills will be located in the Twin Oaks Shopping Center.

“We are excited to be joining this community as a friend, a trusted neighbor and an employer,” said Jeffries.
