Wall Storage Systems

[jpy15026]

I received a couple of inquiries about my “pegboard” storage so I thought I might post the information.
I bought it (on line only) from Home Depot $39.97 if you add some hooks or something it Ships FREE with a $45.00 Order

The Stainless Steel Pegboard is raised on a frame so it can be mounted directly to a wall without worrying about leaving space behind it for clearance for the hooks as in regular wooden pegboard mounting.
Since I had to mount it to a concrete block wall I thought it would be easier for me to attach a wooden frame on the block wall first and then mount the WallStoreage system to the wooden frame rather than trying to mount it directly to the concrete block.
It would be very easy to mount it directly to drywall attaching it to studs in the wall or directly to the drywall using drywall anchors

It came with an assortment of slotted pegboard hooks but I bought some additional standard ¼” pegboard hooks to hold the bars a bit more securely.
I really like the look and durability of the stainless pegboard over regular wooden pegboard and glad I found it.

Looks very nice... like a store display.

That looks really good with all those chrome accessories on there. Very neat storage solution.

Looks good!

Is that seat belt looking thing holding your bars something you rigged up as well?

Metal pegboards are fantastic. I've been using pegboards to store my accessorioes for years. The problem with traditional pegboard materials is that it will bend and warp if you put too much weight on it without bracing enough, which results in you losing holes and versatility. Looks nice and very functional. Well done.

You guessed it.
I didn't want to chance my two brand new CAP OB-86B bars crashing to the floor so I found a couple of GM Seatbelt extenders that I had laying around and attached them to the wall.
On the bottom they sit on a piece of 2x4 with some leftover rubber flooring glued to it and at the top I just stuck a strip of 2" industrial Velcro on the block just to protect the sleeves.

Great solution--repped. I might do that rather than building the gun rack + something else that I was thinking of to hold accessories.

Nice set up! How did you attach the seatbelt extenders to the wall?

[rlundregan]

Were you able to make everything fit onto one kit, or did you buy multiple pegboards for what you have? I am looking to hang just about the same items that you have up on your wall. Also, did you not use any of the hooks that came with the kit, or did you just buy a few extras?

Just drilled a hole in the block with a masonry bit and used a lead anchor.
Attached each end of the extenders with a screw and large washer into the lead anchor,nothing special

I only bought one kit that consists of two 32 x 16 panels that ends up being a 32in x 32in area,big enough for all my items,one kit was all I needed.
I used some of the "Slotted" hooks that came with the kit for the smaller items and bought Stanley brand 1/4" Curved Pegboard hooks from my local hardware store for the bars and heavier items.I didn't like any of the "assorted" hooks that were at Walmart and Home Depot,I didn't think I needed anything but the Curved ones and the "Stanley" brand are heavy and come with plastic clips that secure the hooks to the pegboard so the hooks stay in place when you remove and replace an item : )

THanks for the information!

Here is the. Website for the company that makes the panels: https://wallcontrol.com/Index.htm
I went with a red and white combo:

big fan of wall organizers- in the garage and shed. Especially comes in handy in the home gym. Here are a few pics of what I am currently using. A friend of mine installs customs closets- so he had some cool stuff to use.

Looks great--repped.

I feel like I should genuflect or something!

This is really nice looking. My accessories are all laying on the floor and I've known I need to construct something. This looks like what I need. Thanks for posting it. Reps.

Excellent job going to have to use that idea as well.

Just bumping this thread because this seems to be such a great product! I just ordered a Wall Control board, it came yesterday. I expected to need another one, but this thing ate up all of my gear--no more milk crates full of junk for me!

I have three of the wall control panels. Great product.
