| A little history…
Paul E. Dauwalder was founder of Paul's
Hardware. Paul started his hardware store in 1956 at Thomas and
Scottsdale Roads with a sales area of approximately 1,800 square
feet. After two years the business had outgrown its facility and
moved farther north on Scottsdale Road. Eight years later the
company expanded again and moved to the old post office location on
4th Street. Thirty-six years later in February of 1992 the Scottsdale
store moved to its current location, back to its roots, on
Scottsdale and Thomas Roads.
Paul and his son Don opened up a second
location in 1973 in Fountain Hills on Saguaro Blvd. It remained in
that location until 1986 when it was relocated to what was the old
Bashas' store. As the town of Fountain Hills has enjoyed huge
growth, so has Paul's Ace Hardware in Fountain Hills. Bursting at
the seams, the store moved to its current location in the Bashas'
Shopping Center on Palisades and LaMontana in June of 1998.
The early 1990's were busy times for
Paul's Ace Hardware. It acquired its Tempe location on Broadway
Road. To service both residential and commercial business, Paul's
added a full-service lumberyard to the Tempe location in 1994. In
2005 we opened our Rental Department in Tempe. Just a few of the
items we rent include power tools, lawn equipment, party
supplies, and paint equipment. In 2006 we opened our fourth store
in Gilbert, located on the southwest corner of Gilbert and Baseline
Roads.
We are expanding! In June 2007 we opened the doors to our fifth location on McDonald & Granite Reef in Scottsdale.
