Pegboard Hooks
Pegboard hooks and pegboard accessories for use with our Wall Pegboard Units and Gondola Peg Units.
Pegboard hook displays are a great way of displaying loads of products at eye level in a small retail display area. The versatility of pegboard displays means it is used not only for the widely seen bagged sweets and packets of nuts & bolts, it is ideal for both small products which get “lost” on shelves such as batteries, and large products which take up a lot of shelf space or are not suited to be on shelves such as car mats. Products can be changed around continually, encouraging impulse buys and promotional offers.
The strength of pegboard hooks is dependent on the cross sectional area of the peg hook, which means, a small increase in steel gauge can have a dramatic increase in the cross sectional area. For example 4.8mm gauge wire has nearly double the cross section area of a 3.4mm wire, so it is well worth comparing peg hook gauge before buying hooks. All of our standard pegboard hooks are suitable for 25mm hole spacing metal pegboard, they will not fit wooden pegboard. The 40mm single hooks will fit 30mm hole spacing metal pegboard or slatwall.
There are two common designs of pegboard hook, the single prong display hook and the looped or Euro hook. The single pegboard hook is the most popular type due to its versatility, the single spike is less safe than the looped hooks but can be improved by adding plastic caps to the end, which are available in black, red or silver colour. Looped hooks are useful for larger products and also reduce the risk of damaging the packaging because the load is spread over a wider area.
Our direct entry peg hooks are great if you want to move the hooks around regularly, the quick release mechanism means the hooks are simply placed where required and the clip pressed down, to remove just pull the release clip. The hook therefore does not need to be tilted upwards to be removed from the pegboard. Another clever pegboard hook is the direct entry hook with an overarm which can hold an epos pricing flap, ideal when individual product pricing is required. All our direct entry hooks are made in Germany to a very high standard. Unusual or bespoke pegboard hooks are no problem, if you have a picture of a peg hook or pegboard accessory that you require we can source it quickly from our suppliers vast range of specialist display hooks.
