System installs easily and is much more attractive then the traditional pegboard and hooks. I bought two sets and loaded them up with no sign of stress on the panels or the included hooks, shelves, etc. Bought an accessory pack to give myself more hanging options. Highly recommended to keep your workspace organized.

This is a great system. Very sturdy and the hooks work pretty well. We have never owned peg board before and it's helps with the clutter in the garage. We planned to install this directly into our block walls but after a few attempts we failed. The biggest issue is the driver bit was too large to fit through the hole, plus it's difficult to screw into cement walls. We purchased strips of wood, mounted them on our block, and then installed these panels. It was extremely easy and they feel solid at this point.

In the process of putting together a hobby-room work space it was time to look for a pegboard to mount above my new smith table. I had previously purchased a nice 24X48 polymer unit from Lowes like the two I have mounted in my garage, but, alas, they no longer carry it for whatever reason. After utilizing the poly boards for the last 5 or so years, I'll have nothing to do with the old fiber board pegboards, so I went to Amazon to see what other options were out there...which is where I came across the Wall Control galvanized steel pegboards.

With the rolled edges and built-in mounting solution, it looked like a good option. Looking around the web a bit they had good reviews, so I decided to pick up the two panel pack with the included accessories (Wall Control 30-WGL-200GVB).

Mounting was a snap, and I have to say that the cut and folded steel panels to make the 'standoff' mounting system was great. Love that you don't have to fuss with any spacers or frame to get this up. Luckily my builders actually spaced my studs at a proper 16" apart so I was able to mount the two panels firmly into 3 studs with the included mounting screws.

Build quality is good and these are very, very solid. They will (of course) flex a bit in the middle, but they are solid and durable. The accessories and peghook system is very different from standard pegboard accessories. While the Wall Control unit will accept standard 'round hole' peg hooks and accessories, the galvanized boards also use mounting slots for their own accessories. The hooks and accessories mount very securely due to the way you have to fiddle the hooks into the slots (hard to explain, but these mounts are not going to fall out). I ended up using a combination of the Wall Control 'slot' mount accessories, plus a bunch of standard pegboard accessories and they all managed to get along just fine ;)

One plus to using these steel peg boards that I did not initially think about was the use of magnetic mounts! Of course! I have a bunch of thin 1/4 x 1/2 neodium magnets that I use around the shop for sticking tools to metal surfaces. If you've used any of these neodium magnets you know they are POWERFUL. Using a few of these I was able to tack a few extra items to the edges of the pegboard, as well as just 'stick' a few things to unused areas of the surface where a regular peg mount would not suffice.

I like these so much now that I am looking at getting another pair to expand my storage options.

My wife even likes the looks of it. Wall Control has several colors (besides unfinished steel) such as Black, Blue, and Red (along with matching accessories) if you want to mount this in more colorful hobby room, or even a kid's area.
