Gladiator 4' GearWall® Panels, GAWP042P

My garage had evolved, or rather, devolved into something that more resembled the garbage pit in Star Wars when Han, Luke and Leia were on the destroyer. This was the year of clearing it out. Over the years, I've assembled a store's worth of shovels and assorted gardening/snow/and other things. Let's just say I have a favorite shovel, a 2nd favorite shovel, and a 3rd favorite shovel.. and that's just with snow. There will be no pictures because I forgot to take a picture of how truly packed and disorganized my garage was. Let's just say, you had to climb over my lumber, mower and all sorts of other things to get to the back and even there, you weren't standing on the floor. Anyway, I looked at a couple of systems and I also read a lot of reviews for those systems. I was attracted to the modularity of this wall, the sturdiness of the construction and the overall aesthetic. Gladiator has tons of attachments so if I, in the future, possibly want to hang something new, they probably will have that attachment. The attachments, which I looked at carefully at a big box, were sturdy welded items that looked like they could take a beating. Installation was easy. Basically, find your studs. Mark the locations. Figure out how much you need to buy based off that calculation. (Because I had come over a distressing number of people who said that the 8 foot were sometimes damaged on the end, I went for the four foot. The four foot sections were well packaged.) I used exterior decking screws #8, 2 inch screws. And then, I went to town. Once I got my base level leveled and installed, the rest were simple tongue and groove. If you install it on the studs properly, it's going to hold very well. (I screwed every single spot that I could so 3 studs and each row except where I had some sort of obstruction.) Please note, the lengths aren't perfect. There is minute variation in the length. I bought some trim but I decided that I preferred the more unfinished look. But I can easily add the trim in the future if I want. You can also cut it with a miter saw or a circular saw and get the perfect length. I wasn't interested in slicing 1 mm off the length. Gladiator attachments are pricey but they do go on sale. (another biggie for me.) That's where they make the money. And of course, the system is piecemeal so you can add on as you get a better idea of how you want to use your wall real estate. Just make sure you've got it set up for larger spaces if that is your ultimate goal. Mine went from a rather small section to a 4 x 8 section and it's holding most of my rakes and shovels. I'm using the tool hook (the one with the 2 long prongs) and it's working out well for me. You can also use these same attachments on a gear track. I just wanted a larger area where I could pop in hooks to hold other stuff like power cables and things like that without having to worry about shovel/rake heads and their handles. I'm very very happy with this purchase.

Our entire garage walls and cabinetry in the garage have become Gladiator by Whirlpool! The panels install easily with better screws than the "Gladiator" they suggest! The panels are sturdy, bright white and easy to cut down to size, if needed, with a chop saw! You can't go wrong with this product! You might think you're paying more, but in the end it pay's for itself with the perfection of organization options! Thanks Whirlpool!!!

I did a ton of research before selecting this system. There a bunch of cheaper systems available but I know I wanted the piece of mind of having solid PVC on the wall. There are hollow PVC walls that will not stand up to the task like this will. In all I bought about 100 square feet of this wall track. I think it is a bit overpriced but was better having a solid system then having tools fall on my cars. It cleans up the garage nice and holds all of equipment perfectly. Installation takes a while because it needs a lot of screws to properly install it. I used deck screws for the holding power and sheer strength. The wall shows no weaknesses and can easily handle what I put on it. I wish they sold this kit in a charcoal or dark grey but other than that I have no complaints.

I have several walls of Gladiator wall boards in my shop. I have gladiator shelves attached as well as gladiator cabinetry. I like the ability to change the locations of the cabinets if necessary and you can relocate the products if need be. Amazon has had good availability and pricing on these items as I have been buying them for over 10 years now. Glad to still have this product line available as I will continue to buy them as I expand. This item is always top rated on many review sites and I can attest that it is strong and attractive choice in organization and storage. I will be purchasing more!

I have purchased 6 of these packs in total in the past year. Totally transformed my garage organization,or lack thereof. Minus 1 star because over the course of purchasing and installing these GearWall panels the lengths are not exact. The newer panels are 5/16" shorter than the older panels I installed last year. Other than this, these are 5 star quality panels. You can also use the hangers, baskets and shelves available at the Home Depot without a problem.

If you haven't experienced Gladiator Garageworks, it's hard to describe. Like describing an ocean beach to a desert dweller, these panels represent a level of wonderfulness that goes beyond mere words. These panels make a wall that is attractive and versatile; providing a strong support systems for the various hooks, cabinets, shelves, etc. These are very easy to install - just find some studs and screw them in. I'm now the envy of all the neighbors, and people stop all the time to ask me what kind of wall panels and storage I have so they can get their own.

These wall panels work great. They have plenty of weight capacity for my needs (a weight bench, golf push cart and collapsable ladder were the main large items). I like that the panels come in 12"X48" interlocking sections; this makes customizing much easier than cutting the panels (which can be done, if needed). Installation was very easy. Just FYI - I would highly recommend drilling pilot holes to reduce the chances of cracking a panel. My only gripe is that Gladiator uses a non-universal slat size. You have to pay attention to the hooks/accessories you purchase. But Gladiator makes many different accessories of their own.

Fits the design of my large garage for tools.

Pour le garage c'est super
