Hammer Home
Ace Hardware
As an independent hardware store that serves each block, Ace believes every community has a story worth building on. Together with Ace, we can Hammer Home everything our neighborhoods are about.
The Red Hammer Co-op
Welcome to the Red Hammer Cooperative: A program where ACE shoppers can volunteer time and effort for their community. Dues provided by members will be used to support community projects and renovations.
ACE’d It
ACE storefronts will be given a facelift and a community gathering space, built by volunteering co-op members. Additionally, rental lockboxes full of tools and equipment will be placed nearby for co-op members to use at their disposal.
Community
Engagement
In order to help members no matter where they are, ACE will create a co-op TikTok account with DIY tasks, renovations, and tutorials. If you’re a member, simply use #ACEFromAnywhere to show your work to the community.
What Could Be
The last piece to restoring any community is repurposing abandoned spaces. An AR rendering will pose the question ‘What Could Be’, showing the possibility of an empty lot or abandoned building. The Red Hammer Co-op doesn’t stop after one job is finished – that’s where they begin.
