Frequently Asked Questions
What is slatwall and what is it used for?
Slatwall is a panel system with horizontal channels running across the face that accept a variety of hooks, baskets, shelves, and brackets. It is used in garages, workshops, retail spaces, and storage rooms to create flexible, reconfigurable wall storage systems that adapt as needs change.
What materials are slatwall panels available in?
Windsor Plywood carries slatwall in MDF and PVC-laminated MDF options. Standard MDF slatwall is suitable for interior garage and workshop use in dry conditions. PVC-laminated slatwall is more moisture-resistant and easier to clean, making it better suited for high-humidity environments or areas where cleaning is frequent.
How much weight can slatwall panels hold?
Load capacity depends on the panel thickness, how it is mounted, and the type of accessory being used. Properly mounted slatwall panels anchored into wall studs can hold 75 to 100 pounds per square foot with quality accessories. Heavy items like power tools should use accessories that span multiple channels and are anchored into stud locations.
Can slatwall be cut to fit custom dimensions?
Yes. Slatwall panels can be cut to width and height using a table saw or circular saw with a fine-tooth blade. The channels must remain level after installation for accessories to work properly, so careful layout and shimming during installation is important. Cut edges can be covered with slatwall edge trim.
What is the standard channel spacing on slatwall panels?
Most slatwall panels use a 3-inch on-centre channel spacing, which is the industry standard and compatible with the widest range of accessories from different manufacturers. Some systems use 4-inch spacing. Confirm channel spacing before purchasing accessories to ensure compatibility.
