4.0 out of 5 stars Very nice January 21, 2010

Got these in today - so much better than the fiber pegboard they are replacing. I like the stand offs built in, mounting is super simple, as long as your walls are 16" on center...I could see problems if you are putting them in a utility building or older construction with a wider spacing. Then again, they do include drywall anchors if you can't manage to find a stud with every screw, but definitely try for stud mounting. Extremely heavy duty panels, I mounted a sledgehammer and several other tools, and had no noticible deflection. For the improvement in looks and function, worth the $ versus the cheap fiber panels.

3.0 out of 5 stars Noticing some deflection. June 12, 2011

I am not hanging heavy items at all, and have noticed a deflection in the panel. I am hanging a small shelf from the bottom of the board, with some screw jars. I would say a total of about 5 pounds at most.

I bought this item because I liked the look of it. I am happy with it for sure. I like the spaced back, and how easy it was to mount. I hung mine laterally to fit the space between some shelves and my workbench, so maybe this is the reason. The steel is a decent gauge, but I can't see how it is sturdier than fiber pegboard? I made a pegboard portable cart out of fiber pegboard, and it can support my 30 amp sawzall, radial saw, jigsaw, and hammers galore without any visible deflection. On top of that, the supports are 30" apart on the cart.

This steel pegboard, mounted on 16" centers, is just ok. I like it, and use it to put up some magnetic holders for small parts I am working with. I would not advise hanging these sideways even though they seem to be set up for that (16" screw holes on all sides), but then again, I also do not know how they function vertically. This was just my experience with them.

I am a 64 year old professional who works behind a desk but have 40+ years of experience with hand and power tools. Purchased three panels, installed them and now use them in my garage. Positives include attractive and clean look and durability. Negatives have already been reviewed, including, "loose fit" of regular sized hangers that are commonly used in fiberboard pegboards. I replaced my fiberboard panels that were unattractive, warping and poorly installed by the previous owner. The hangers were loose on that board AND on the board I have at our other house, so "loose fit" is not limited to the Wall Control Galvanized Steel set. Solution: tape two to three turns of electrical or duct tape to the lower stub to create more friction that, at least in the short term, prevents inadvertent removal of the hanger when removing the tool. Be careful however: When installing the panels, use a stud finder and then carefully align the edge of the panel to the midpoint of the stud so you may compensate for any variation in the vertical alignment of the studs. Yes, my garage has 16 inch on center vertical studs but they are NOT exact. I managed to do it right the first time but give yourself some room. When I drive into my garage, it is a pleasant sight for me to see the clean and reflective glare of the panels and tools. Yeah I know, I am a neatness freak.

I purchased a set of the Wall Control specific hangers and my review is posted there.

I just installed these. They look good. Feel sturdy, and feels like they should last.

It took me about 45 minutes to install one set (two panels). I would say it's a reasonably easy installation. The video shows what the end product looks like right after installation, without any tools.

I also bought 1/4" peg board hooks from another store (starts with W), which are pretty good (an assorted pack of 20 for under 5). I'll keep looking to add more hooks, though the ones available on Amazon seem too expensive.

I've withheld one star because I haven't had this for any length of time. If it holds up well with time, I'll come back and give it all 5 stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars office and bathroom organizers June 11, 2011

This was the second set of galvanized steel pegboard that I purchased from Amazon. The first set is hung on either side of my computer desk - I used a variety of hanging shelves and magnetic containers (all from IKEA) for a fun and functional storage look. The second set went in my tiny hall bathroom. I used more hanging shelves from IKEA, along with some vinyl coated wire baskets and pegs purchased at Home Depot. I have plenty of space for all of my teenage son's needs - including a hanging laundry bag so that the floor remains uncluttered, long pegs that hold toilet paper and a hand towel, magnetic containers to hold cotton swabs, dental floss and nail clippers, and shelves for everything else. If I had the wall space I'd use these pegboards in my craft room too.

After searching the internet for the best possible value I purchased the product from AMAZON (wall control). The package arrived right on time with no damage, installation was a breeze, the only thing i had wished was the color wallcontrol peg board was the same price but i will live with the silver. This is by far the best project for my little work area, now i can see almost all my hand tools. I would purchase more when i need it from AMAZON.

I installed six of these in my garage. Installation was a breeze following provided instructions. Find a stud for the first panel,mount and level it. I found that striking a plum line either top or bottom for the other panels got me perfect alignment.

Overall, great product, allows mounting directly to whatever surface in this case drywall. No furring strips, painting etc.and should the need arise, panels could easily be moved elsewhere. I did notice that the regular pegboard hooks are somewhat looser in the metal panel and with anything over 6" long I had to bend them to compensate for sag. I suppose one can buy their hooks but I have so many of the standard type and made them usable.
