What are the standard sizes for slatwall panels?

Slatwall panels are made to order. Standard configurations include 4' x 8' sheets, with narrower options such as 2' x 8' and 4' x 4' for partial wall coverage, columns, and gondola backs. Contact our team at 800-571-3301 for sizing options and lead times on your specific panel type.

What is the groove spacing on standard slatwall panels?

Standard slatwall panels use 3-inch on-center groove spacing, which is the industry standard and is compatible with the vast majority of slatwall hooks, brackets, and accessories. Textured slatwall panels use 6-inch on-center groove spacing — confirm accessory compatibility before ordering for textured panel installations. Contact our team at 800-571-3301 for guidance.

Can slatwall panels be installed directly on a wall?

Yes. Slatwall panels are designed to mount directly onto wall studs or a plywood backer using screws through the grooves. For best results on drywall installations, use a 3/4-inch plywood backer to ensure a flat, level surface and adequate screw-holding strength. Our team can advise on mounting systems for your specific wall construction.

Do slatwall panels ship with aluminum inserts?

Most slatwall panels do not include aluminum inserts. Textured slatwall panels include aluminum inserts pre-installed in the grooves. For other panel types, aluminum inserts are available separately and are recommended for heavier merchandise applications. Check the individual product listing for insert inclusion, or contact us at 800-571-3301 to specify panels with inserts.
