Yes. Standard slatwall panels mount to any structurally sound wall surface using construction adhesive and screws driven into studs. For installations over drywall without stud access, a backing board or French cleat system is recommended to distribute load. Framed slatwall panels ship with a wall cleat set for ready-to-hang installation. Our design team can advise on the correct mounting method for your wall type and merchandise weight.
