Hinged Panels Store Lots of Tools in a Small Space
Oct 08, 2009
This tool-storage system mounted above my workbench consists of four winging pegboard panels. Each panel has a 2-ft. by 2-ft. section of pegboard on each side, separated by 1/2 in. so that the pegboard hooks won’t interfere with each other. In all, the panels provide 32 sq. ft. of storage space in a small, easily accessible area. The panels are mounted to 2×4 ledger boards that are lag-bolted to studs in the wall. Bolts through T-nuts provide the pivot hinge for the panel.
