Westlake Hardware to Open New Ace Hardware in Van Nuys, California

The new Ace Hardware of Van Nuys will officially open December 18, 2019. The store is in the former Orchard Supply Hardware location at 5960 Sepulveda Blvd. A grand opening is scheduled for early 2020.

The store is anticipated to eventually employ approximately 50 people from the area. Sam Mushamel, the store’s general manager, is among the many familiar faces customers will recognize from when the store was Orchard Supply Hardware. “We look forward to becoming a supportive, active, and helpful part of the Van Nuys community,” said Mushamel.

Mushamel added, “Van Nuys consumers will soon have a neighborhood hardware store choice again. We are going to feature an exciting blend of products. But more importantly, it gives us an opportunity to show the community how we live the Ace Helpful Promise every day by delivering reliable service, helpful advice, and products to help customers get their projects done right.”

The 32,209 sq. ft. store will sell traditional hardware products such as fasteners, tools, plumbing and electrical supplies. Additionally, it will feature several “store-in-a-store” concepts and departments:

– The Garden Center will feature a full range of seasonal live goods and gardening supplies, as well as a wide assortment of patio furniture and other outdoor living products.

– The Backyard BBQ department will feature a full range of grills and BBQ accessories from such leading brands as Weber, Traeger, and Big Green Egg.
