I have just ordered the Pinnacle Pegboard to install on my interior masonary wall. What screws and wall plugs will I need?
The pegboard won't be supporting a large amount of weight.
I had a look at the aisles in Bunnings, but couldn't find an appropriate screw with a head big enough for the keyholes.
I was thinking self tapping screws, but unsure how I'd go with those in masonary and whether to use with or without wall plugs.
Hi @Zerlinki,
A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community, it is wonderful to have you with us.
You might like to start by checking out How to hang just about anything for some general guidance.
On a masonry wall, you can drill a pilot hole using a hammer drill, with a suitably sized masonry bit for your chosen wall anchor. In an application like this, a Ramset 8 x 50mm Blue Wall Plug would be a great option that would allow you to use a variety of different screws.
In the video on the product page for the Pinnacle 1810 x 540mm Matte Black Metal Pegboard, they have used a button head screw similar to these Zenith 8G x 30mm Button Head Timber Stitching Screws. These screws would work well for your application.
Make sure you use as many of the mounting holes as possible so the weight on the pegboard is distributed evenly and supported well.
Let me know if you have any further questions.
Jacob
