In 1971, Oak Hill Hardware, then a Trustworthy Hardware, opened in Scarborough, ME. After a decade of successful business at Oak Hill as well as at Pond Cove Hardware, owners Pat and Harry Hughes opened Dunstan Hardware in West Scarborough. Shortly after Dunstan was established, the location at Pond Cove was closed. Oak Hill & Dunstan, which would become Ace Hardware stores, continued to thrive and became an important and trusted business in the community. In the early 2000s, Oak Hill expanded its sales floor by converting adjoining space in the same building. A third and final renovation further extended the sales floor and improved the functionality of the back office. Today, Oak Hill & Dunstan Hardware remain a staple in the community, dedicated to serving the residents of Scarborough and neighboring towns.
