Tricks of the Trade

No More Falling Pegboard Hooks

THE WINNER:

I recently made a display cabinet to hang my tools that incorporated pegboard. I never liked the metal hangers (which are prone to fall off), so I looked for an alternative. I found that V4" plastic dry wall anchors fit perfectly into a 'y//// pegboard hole. This allows

me to easily mount any custom-made hanger or small shelf. You also can simply hang many of your tools from the exposed screw heads.

You might need to trim the tip of the anchor to allow clearance behind the pegboard depending on the space between the pegboard and your shop wall.

For using tool hangers as pictured, make sure you drill a recess in the back edge of the hanger board to cover the anchor head (which always sticks out from the pegboard). This way the tool hanger will mount flush.
