The Best Hardware Store in Skokie

Product. Price. Personal Service. Those are the three pillars around which Crafty Beaver has built its reputation as the preeminent Skokie, IL 60077 and 60076 hardware store. Locals trust us and what they trust, first and foremost, is that we stock what they need to better their lives, whether they’re D-I-Y-ers seeking to refurbish a kitchen or redo the house – or they’re professional contractors responsible for a number of new construction or remodel projects.

It goes far beyond us supplying all the ordinary hardware store products. Oh, of course, we’ve got those by the bushel: the hand and power tools, the nuts and bolts and nails, etcetera. But we’re also a comprehensive Skokie building supply store, a Skokie lawn and garden center, a Skokie home décor and housewares store, a Skokie appliance store, a Skokie automotive store, and … well, you catch our drift! “Hardware” is almost too confining a word to embrace all the products we offer!

We’ll address specific products in a minute. First, a word about pricing: Crafty Beaver is known to have among the best, most competitive, most reasonable prices in and around Skokie. Even so, we'll further reduce our excellent everyday prices with recurring sale prices and special promotional discounts. Little wonder, then, that so many of your neighbors use us as a pricing benchmark. Amazing products, amazing prices, and amazing deals are just part of how we roll at Crafty Beaver!

That’s true also of personal service. In each and every department, you’ll meet friendly people who not only look forward to helping you but who also possess the training, wisdom, and experience to make their help genuinely beneficial. Crafty Beaver people speak your language, whether you’re a professional contractor or a total do-it-yourself novice. Need help picking the best product for your purposes and budget? It’s yours! Don’t know how to install a product or how it’s used? We have a knack for explaining things simply and directly! Hoping for a bit of design guidance or additional consultation on a difficult home remodel project? We’re just the people to provide it!
