6 Best Pegboards of 2024

VonHaus are well-known for their affordable tools, accessories and gadgets designed to make life a little easier. I checked out their clever wall mounted storage system. It certainly answers the question of what to do with all your bits and pieces when space is at a premium.

Made from extremely durable and light impact-resistant plastic, the pegboard itself comes in two parts. Together they can hold up to a maximum of 36 kg worth of tools and accessories. It uses clever wide locating slots, as well as traditional hook holes. It means this DIY pegboard can provide added flexibility for where you can locate the hooks and bins.

The bins themselves are removable and can be stacked when not in use. They come in three sizes that can hold from 1 to 2.5 kg. They’re useful for holding screws, nails, brackets, or anything else that you need to keep organised.

As you would expect from the best tool pegboards, there are 14 tool storage accessories to choose from. They include a handy adjustable width spanner holder and a range of hooks that can be positioned to hold hammers or mallets as well as tools with hanging holes.

With a dizzying range of useful homewares and DIY products from garden sheds to skateboards, Deuba are a force to be reckoned with. Their wall panel kit is one of the best pegboards I’ve come across. It’s surprisingly sturdy and comes with a huge number of plastic bins for your bits and pieces.

Sheds, garages, and workshops can never have enough storage. If you’re a keen DIYer or crafter, having the right fixing on hand saves you time and effort, so this system is ideal. It’s a versatile system that allows you to easily move boxes around and take them off when you need to.

You get two polypropylene plastic panels that fix on the wall and 32 bins in two different sizes. There are 14 large black boxes and 16 medium red boxes, that can be positioned almost anywhere along the width of the panel.

There’s a handy slot on the front of each bin for a description label as well. If you’re planning on organising your screws, nails and other bits, it’s a good idea to take advantage of this system! This is a handy and attractive way to organise and display the things that would otherwise be clogging up your tool kit.

A home pegboard storage solution from the Manchester-based VonHaus company is the garage pegboard and shelf tool organiser.

It’s the perfect solution to having stacks of tools and accessories spread out across multiple toolboxes and bags. Especially when you seem to spend more time looking for each tool than working with them. The VonHaus Garage Wall Tool Rack Pegboard is large enough to accommodate a whole toolbox. And the two separate pegboards can be configured to fit a modest-sized wall.

Made of tough, impact-resistant plastic, this DIY pegboard is lighter than a steel pegboard but just as strong. The pegboards are not flimsy and can be attached to the wall with as many fixings as you think it needs. I think this is possibly the best pegboard because it offers real value in its flexibility.

My favourite feature of this pegboard storage solution is the pair of multi-purpose shelves included in the set. They provide a ridiculous amount of storage in the same tough plastic as the pegboard is made from. The ten front hooks can be used to hang smaller items such as screwdrivers or keys. The multiple slots and holes in the shelf itself can accommodate a whole range of hand tools.

Northern Ireland’s LaserSmith are laser and CNC cutting experts. If it can be cut with a laser, they know how to do it. Their range of clever storage solutions is impressive, but the 6 mm thick wooden pegboard I tested out really goes back to basics.

CNC cut from solid-feeling 6 mm MDF, this is the sort of pegboard that hasn’t changed in decades. It’s simple, reliable, and completely versatile. Measuring 1000 x 500 mm, it’s big enough to cover a large wall space.

The peg holes are 6 mm wide and spaced exactly 1” or 25.4 mm apart across the face of the board. That makes them perfect for holding all sorts of hand tools, fixings, or just about anything else.

Although this pegboard doesn’t come supplied with spacers, fixings, or fittings, it’s a quality storage solution. It’s been well machined and fits standard pegboard fittings that are widely available. If you want a simple but effective pegboard, you can’t go far wrong with this one.

Atlanta, Georgia based Wall Control are one of the best known US-made pegboard companies. They know their stuff too, their motto is “the organization you crave”. So, if you crave the best pegboard system that money can buy, the 30-P-3232GV galvanized steel panels are the ones for you.

The most vital part of this pegboard system is the materials used in construction. The galvanised steel panel has been coated with a protective layer of zinc to help keep out the elements. It’s a lot less likely to get rusty in a damp shed or garage. You get the strength of steel without worrying it’ll rot out on you over time.

Made in the USA, the pack contains two 41 x 81 cm panels. You can mount them next to each other or wherever it suits you, they go up quickly with just a screw in each corner. The edges of the panels are flanged or bent backwards so that the panel sticks out from the wall enough to hang almost any tool you have.

The galvanised steel panels look great on the wall too. I like the raw steel finish, but if you want, you can choose from ten different colours. Although the kit doesn’t come with hooks or bins, it’s compatible with ¼” pegs and has slots for attaching shelf brackets. I love it!

The Art Plast garage wall storage rack I got my hands on is a clever and flexible way to stow all your tools and accessories.

The pair of large 500 x 500 mm plastic wall plates are fixed to the walls at each corner and are packed with hundreds of little holes. These holes can hold a range of hooks, holders, and a shelf that in turn has plenty of slots for hand tools.

There are two yellow plastic shelves that can be connected wherever they’re more useful as well. It’s the ideal place to slot lightweight tools like files and screwdrivers. The plastic used is surprisingly strong, if it’s not overloaded it should last for a long time.
