ProfessionalCustom Pegboard Installation
A pegboard is one of the most versatile storage systems you can put in a garage or workshop — but only if it's mounted solidly with a proper standoff gap behind it. We mount your pegboard into studs with correct spacing, frame it out neatly, and leave you with a wall that holds every hook and accessory firmly.

How it works
Mark the layout
We locate studs, mark the perimeter of the board, and install horizontal furring strips to create the clearance gap behind the pegs.
Mount the pegboard
We fasten the pegboard through the furring into studs so there's no flex when you load up the hooks.
Frame and finish
We add trim around the perimeter to give the installation a finished look rather than a raw plywood edge on the wall.
We can help
Problems we fix
- Pegboard mounted flat against drywall with no standoff — pegs can't engage properly
- Sheet only held with drywall anchors that pull loose under the weight of tools
- Pegboard cut unevenly with no perimeter frame, giving a DIY appearance
- Hooks that fall out because the board flexes when you reach for a tool
Good to know
Custom Pegboard Installation — FAQ
Does pegboard need a gap behind it?
Yes, a 1-inch gap is standard. Without it the hooks won't seat correctly and the board will flex as soon as you load any weight on a peg.
What size pegboard do you recommend for a garage?
A 4x8 sheet covers a good working section. For larger wall coverage, we can install two or more sheets with continuous furring for a seamless result.
Can you install pegboard over existing drywall?
Yes, but we still anchor the furring into studs through the drywall. We don't rely on drywall anchors alone for a loaded pegboard.
Can you mount both pegboard and a shelf in the same area?
Absolutely. A shelf above or below the pegboard is a natural pairing — we can build and mount both in one visit.
