Celebrating 40 Wonderful Years!
Nelson Ace Hardware believes that providing exceptional customer service, top-quality products and fostering strong community relationships have been the keys to their lasting success in the home improvement industry.
The History Behind the Hardware
Established in 1983 by Carroll, Sarah and Bob Nelson, Nelson Ace Hardware carries on the family's legacy of serving Vermonters for over a century. Previously operating as Nelson Brothers with locations in Barre, Montpelier and Randolph from 1953-1982, the company is now called Nelson Ace Hardware under the leadership of Bob and Linda Nelson.
As an integral part of the community, our hardware store provides employment opportunities to local residents, including high school and college students. Both Linda and Bob take pride in their involvement within the Barre Community and look forward to welcoming you to Nelson Ace Hardware.
