Add More White Pegboards

NOTE: Packaging and/or shipping could be better, but it wasn't worth returning for a slightly out of square soft bend in the sheet metal that I could readily fix. It came with mounting hardware options, which I did not use for my install but seemed like very good quality. I also feel like washers might be a smart thing to use (for extra security) as there is some wiggle room for lateral adjustments, but large-headed screws will suffice. There's a limit to the types and sizes of hardware that can be used because there is a very narrow slot to access the frame area to tighten down the fastener. I had planned on installing with lag bolts, but my socket size was not going to fit into the access slot. This design is meant to be used with a narrow drill /driver. These are very nice looking and a sturdy, heavy sheet metal gauge. Not too matte, not too glossy and very durable paint finish. I love the options of using standard peg hook accessories or slot wall style organizers as my storage needs evolve. I will never consider using MDF or standard pegboard sheet products ever again. Will this eventually rust if exposed to humidity out in a shed? Who cares, I'll repaint it. I expect this to last for years and years without warping, deteriorating or having the holes stripped out over time and due to weight of stored items. This was actually less expensive to buy and install compared to materially inferior products IMveryHO. No extra framing or spacers required. This was also incredibly easy to install by myself with minimal tools. When I need more I will buy this product again.

I just recently moved into a new house (actually 40 years old, but new for me) and needed to re-organize the garage, as the wife did the rest of the house! Their was already some old (looked like particle board) pegboard on the walls, but some of the holes had widened or snapped off. I have lots of heavy tools/garden equipment and did not trust the original pegboard to stand the test of time. I purchased 6 units (3 kits) of this Galvanized Steel Pegboard and could not be more happy with the results. If your garage studs are exposed like mine, then installation is easy as can be. One board at a time, simply line it up where you want it, leave 1/2 the stud for the next board, mark the holes, drill the pilots, put the board back, drill the provided screws (large & heavy duty) and move onto the next one. I have 4 boards lined next to each other on one wall and 2 on wall to the right, making a 64"x32" space, which was perfect for the workbench that I have under it. The workbench that I ended up going with was the "2x4basics 90164 Workbench and Shelving Storage System" and it all worked great together! I have 5 power drills, a circ saw, sawzall and three baskets with screws/nuts/bolts, etc on just one board. I bought the "Stanley Tools 819841 51 Piece Pegboard Hook Assortment", which has been OK. If any of you find great pegboard accessory hook sets, please comment on this post and let me know where to get them. The "Lehigh Group/Crawford #SHDH Super Power Drill Holder - 10 LBS" has been great for power drills. This pegboard looks great, is extremely sturdy, easy to install. The only difficult part in installation was if you wanted to use both pegboards with one accessory hanger. It says to use a penny and it works, but only OK. I just sort of eye-balled it and use each board separately.

I decided to give this product a try when we moved to our new house after using the traditional pegboard for years. I've now been using if for about 20 months and it's held up very well. I love the many hook and color options to really make it your own. Two things I'd go back an tell my past self if I could: 1. Just bite the bullet and replace all your crappy 1/4" traditional pegboard hooks with the ones from Wall Control from day one-- you're going to eventually want to replace them all anyway. 2. Get the "optional" o-rings! While the slotted hooks are generally a lot better at the hook not coming away with the tool when you grab it than the traditional kind, the ones that attach via just one slot sometimes still do. You can adjust their tension by bending the tabs per the instructions but I'm never a fan of trying to bend painted metal. The o-rings eliminate this problem entirely and make all hooks stay on rock solid. Ironically, at the time of this writing the ones from Wall Control are the one product of theirs NOT on Amazon but if you search for "O-Rings, Nitrile Rubber O-Rings 7/16" ID, 5/8" OD, 3/32" Width" you can get a 100 pack for $6 that will do the trick just fine. Kicking myself I didn't add these 20 months ago! I'd go so far as to say Wall Control should just include these with every hook set you buy, but I guess maybe they didn't want to muddy the waters as these fall outside their warranty as they can wear out over time.

Looks great and is built strong, I recommended if you want something nice and strong for ever..

These wall panels are amazing for the intended use. I did receive some that had the corners dings, but overall they were easy to mount and held all of my items well. Good price point for the items when they were on sale. The only issue that I have is with the accessory holders. Company does charge a lot for them and they are not rubber coated which can damage items. Used a couple of other brands that I have found and the panels ability to accept multiple types makes it very versatile design.

These pegboards are awesome. They work perfectly for what I needed. I really like that they come in separate individual pieces, which makes it easy to design the layout however you want. I needed to cover a small area, but I wanted it tall rather than wide, and these worked out great. I definitely recommend them. I love the different color options, and I like that they come with pretty much everything you need. In most situations, you’re not going to hit a stud, so I ended up buying separate anchors. That’s just my personal preference and has nothing to do with the manufacturer—I prefer a different type of sheetrock anchor than the ones they supply. Other than that, I have no complaints.

The organization I crave. These things are great quality. The first pegboard wall piece from one order was bent upon arrival but Amazon replaced it quickly. Purchased separate 1/4th in. pegs that worked just fine as well. Three panels fit nearly 300 hot wheels just fine! Anchors are strong and six points hold the panel into the wall. I used a mix of anchors and studs when mounting these with a slight space between each panel. Very sturdy, though I’ll probably aim for the stud on the larger wall unit and align the panels better. I’ve ordered the garage wall kit as well, just waiting on delivery. Will definitely be ordering more as I have a few other areas in mind that need a little bit of extra wall organization.

Recently reorganized my workshop area and had some wall space. I was planning on hanging some more traditional peg board when I came across this. I liked that it was metal and wouldn't really require any framing/spacing from the wall, so I decided to give it a try. I got the "galvanized" silver color and it looks great. The panels arrived in great condition (including mounting hardware and a few pages of mounting instructions); no discoloration or imperfections in the stamping/cutting. Mounting the panels was fairly easy. I didn't want them directly next to each other and my studs are 24" apart so, per their instructions, I mounted one side into the stud and the other with the included drywall pegs. The screws are substantial; they didn't cheap out with the hardware like a lot of other companies do. I placed a few 2x4s on edge on top of my work table and rested the panels on top and used my spirit level to make sure the panels were straight. With one hand holding the panel against the wall, I marked all 6 holes. Drilled pilot holes into the studs on one side and mounted the drywall anchors on the other. Then I screwed in the top two screws, removed the 2x4s and finished the other 4. Each panel took about 8 minutes to mount. I already had some traditional peg board on my workbench, so I started by using some extra standard hooks (2" and 4" long) I originally got from a dollar store. They fit into the holes just fine. The metal panel is very thin so the hooks tend to "hang" a little lower so the stems sit at a downward angle. I bent a few of the longer hooks upward a bit to keep the tools from sliding. I was expecting that, so it wasn't a big deal. I also purchased a large collection of various peg hooks from amazon. These are single peg hooks so they were a bit more frustrating to add. The fact that they were "looser" in the holes and were just in a single peg meant there was a lot of movement and the hooks would easily pop out when I removed a tool. I didn't want to use the clip locks that came with them (since they take up two adjacent peg holes) so I ended up wrapping some thin wire I had around the vertical slots (for their proprietary shelf/hook accessories) to hold the peg hooks in place. It works well and is WAY cheaper than buying the "official" expensive Wall Control accessories or the thicker, more expensive peg hooks. I have quite a few tools hanging on the panels so far and they still look and feel rock solid. They hold the weight in the peg holes without warping or bending and the panels are held fast to the wall. Overall I'm happy with my purchase and I plan on getting a few more of these panels later on to fill in some more empty space. PRO: -much more durable than traditional peg board -compatible with standard peg accessories -very easy to mount -looks good CON: -thinner than traditional peg board so traditional accessories are looser -proprietary Wall Control accessories are ridiculously expensive
