When it comes to storing tools, kitchenware, office supplies, etc., pegboard has been a popular choice for decades. Traditional boards made from wood or plastic are common, but come with a host of issues. A metal pegboard from Wall Control solves all the same storage issues as traditional methods and then some. In this blog we will compare Wall Control against traditional on 6 criteria. 

Durability

Unlike traditional pegboards, the metal panel prevents the peg holes from fraying and wear over time. Traditionally, there is a short life span before the hooks no longer stay engaged in their peg hole, leading to tools falling and being damaged. Wall Control's products are made in the US with 20 gauge steel, ensuring that our work will last a lifetime. The same cannot be said for traditional wooden pegboards. 

Strength

Traditional pegboards' potential strength are limited by the material they are made out of. Simply put, Wall Control's use of formed 20 gauge steel and strong installation allows our panels to be over 10 times as strong as traditional ones. This tenfold increase in strength allows for significantly more storage. Mounting directly to the wall increases strength as it is not hanging from any rail or cleat like traditional systems do. 

Versatility

Versatility is where Wall Control especially shines over traditional boards. Our "Combo" style panel allows for use of traditional 1/4 inch hooks, as well as our stronger and much more secure, "double offset" hook and slot design. Wall Control offers hooks, brackets, shelves, and many more accessories to allow customers to perfect their storage. As the cherry on top, the panels accept magnetic accessories as well! 

Ease of Installation

A highlight of the Wall Control product is that it installs in minutes. With our one-piece installation, you are able to simply mount the panels to the wall. The built in flange allows the panel to require no pre-built frame and mounts to any flat surface. The standard 16"x32" size fits perfectly if you have traditional 16" stud spacing. If not, we provide drywall anchors as well. You are not able to find this convenience with traditional wooden and plastic pegboards, as they require pre-installing frames, rails, or cleats. 

Attractive Appearance

Wall Control offers 17 different colors for panels, providing a perfect match for any color scheme you are going for. Additionally, the accessories come in 4 different colors, furthering the options. On top of the colors, the high quality powder coated finish is able to resist rust and stains, and can easily be wiped clean. Traditional pegboards have very little color options, and are prone to chipping, staining, warping, and they are difficult to clean.

Overall, you will not find a better combination of affordability and value in the wall storage industry than at Wall Control. With its better performance and appearance than normal wall mounted storage systems, customer satisfaction is at an all time high. Wall Control Pegboard is the perfect solution for organizing your tools, garage, or workspace. But don’t just take our word for it—read the reviews!
