We love seeing the different ways customers use Wall Control® metal pegboard to organize garages, workshops, hobby spaces, sheds, and just about anything else that needs a little more order. This round of Photo Contest entries delivered everything from an incredible LED-lit tool wall to woodworking setups, hobby storage, a one-of-a-kind collection display, and even a surprise four-legged workshop supervisor.
Our featured winner from Zach stood out for combining serious tool organization with a little personality... and a lot of lighting.
Zach transformed a large workshop wall into a fully organized tool storage system using blue Wall Control metal pegboard, creating dedicated storage for wrenches, sockets, screwdrivers, hand tools, power tools, and more.
What really takes this installation to another level is the integrated LED lighting. During the day, the bright blue pegboard creates a clean, highly visible tool wall above the workbench. Turn the lights down, and the same workspace takes on an entirely different personality with colorful LEDs illuminating the pegboard panels, tools, and work surface.
It is a great example of how a functional workshop organization system can also become a focal point of the room.
Highlights of Zach's Setup
- Large-scale workshop tool organization
- Blue metal pegboard tool wall
- Socket and wrench storage
- Hand tool organization
- Power tool storage
- Workbench organization
- Integrated LED accent lighting
- Excellent use of vertical wall space

Runner-Up: DIY Shed Tool Storage by Jay
Jay proves that a shed can become a seriously capable workspace with the right use of wall storage.
The bright red Wall Control pegboard stretches across the metal shed wall and provides storage for everything from handsaws and levels to screwdrivers, pliers, small parts, power tools, and shop supplies. White shelves and accessories contrast nicely against the red panels while keeping frequently used items easy to see and grab.
The installation also makes excellent use of an otherwise challenging wall surface, turning a basic metal outbuilding into a much more functional DIY workspace without sacrificing valuable floor space.

Runner-Up: Clean Hobby and Gear Storage by Roy
Roy's setup takes a completely different approach and shows just how well Wall Control can work outside of a traditional garage or tool room.
Black metal pegboard creates a clean backdrop for backpacks, tripods, cables, cases, and other hobby or photography gear. The layout is intentionally simple, with plenty of open space around each item instead of trying to fill every available inch of pegboard.
The result feels less like utility storage and more like a purpose-built gear station. Everything has a home, larger equipment stays off the floor, and the understated black pegboard fits naturally into the room.
Perfect For
- Photography gear storage
- Backpack organization
- Tripod storage
- Cable management
- Hobby room organization
- Home office storage
- Minimalist wall organization

Runner-Up: An Inviting Rustic Workshop by Pete
Pete's workshop might be one of the coziest tool-storage spaces we've seen.
Mounted into a rustic wood-framed workshop, the black Wall Control pegboard provides a clean and organized home for drills, screwdrivers, hand tools, measuring equipment, shop supplies, and accessories while still preserving the character of the space.
Shelves and tool holders help keep the workbench open for projects, while the darker pegboard visually ties everything together against the exposed wood framing. It is a nice reminder that a well-organized workshop does not have to look industrial — it can be inviting too.
Workshop Highlights
- Rustic workshop organization
- Woodworking tool storage
- Black metal pegboard
- Power tool storage
- Screwdriver organization
- Workbench organization

Runner-Up: Precision Woodworking Tool Storage by Gibbs
Gibbs turned precision tool storage into something that looks almost like a showroom display.
The black Wall Control pegboard makes the red Woodpeckers measuring tools pop while providing a clean backdrop for chisels, squares, rulers, gauges, hand tools, and other woodworking equipment. The warm wooden handles throughout the setup add another layer of contrast, and the overhead lighting finishes off an exceptionally polished installation.
More importantly, the organization is functional. Precision measuring tools are visible, separated, and easy to access without piling expensive equipment into drawers or toolboxes.
Standout Features
- Precision woodworking tool storage
- Measuring tool organization
- Chisel storage
- Squares and ruler organization
- Black metal pegboard
- Dedicated tool locations
- Clean workshop presentation
- Professional-looking wall storage

Runner-Up: Creative Wooden Musical Tool and Mallet Display by Gibbs
Gibbs also submitted one of the most unique Wall Control installations in this group, and a great demonstration of how pegboard can become a display system just as easily as it can organize a toolbox.
Rows of beautifully crafted wooden mallets and percussion tools are arranged across black metal pegboard, turning the collection itself into wall art. The repeated spacing keeps every piece visible while allowing the different woods, handles, shapes, and finishes to become part of the display.
It is simple, creative, and completely different from the typical garage pegboard installation.
A Great Example Of
- Musical equipment storage
- Mallet and percussion tool organization
- Collection display
- Hobby storage
- Custom wall displays
- Vertical storage
- Creative uses for metal pegboard

Runner-Up: The Workshop Supervisor by Arash
And finally, no Photo Contest roundup would be complete without at least one entry where the Wall Control setup isn't necessarily the star of the photo.
Arash's green pegboard workshop provides a great organized backdrop for power tools, wrenches, screwdrivers, pliers, bins, paper towels, and other shop essentials. The combination of dark green pegboard and red accessories gives the wall plenty of character.
But we're going to assume the cat sitting front and center on the workbench was responsible for quality control.
Based on the expression, everything appears to have passed inspection.
Approved For
- Garage tool organization
- Green pegboard
- Hand tool storage
- Power tool organization
- Small parts storage
- Workbench organization
- Cats who insist on supervising every project
