You’re currently looking at Basic Duty wall panels, which are best for lighter items. They are not recommended for heavy items, especially if the weight is pulling away from the wall or not supported by a stud.
For maximum strength, we suggest using our Heavy Duty wall panels with the Install Strip (hidden fastener) installation method. This installation provides the highest weight rating:
•Secure for heavy tools, ladders, and other large items
With this setup, your wall will safely handle heavy storage without issue.
