Previously, we spoke about the growing demand for slatwall panels. We covered many reasons why they are growing in popularity, as well as discussing the newer and non-retail industries that are using them. One of these markets is homeowners. Our team are seeing a greater number of inquiries from individuals and homeowners who are looking for various slatwall panel options to install within their property.
Historically, it is not uncommon to find slatwall panels installed in homes. However, they have usually been kept within garages and sheds. For rooms that are prone to untidiness while also requiring clever space management, slatwall panels are the best option. Within such spaces, it is a huge compromise to have cabinets or drawers in which to store tools, sports gear, or equipment, because they take up a portion of valuable floor space. In some scenarios, this floor space simply cannot be compromised, such as with a car. This is why transforming the vertical surfaces into storage is a fantastic option.
Extruding only a few millimetres, the panels allow objects to be hung and mounted safely without any complicated attachments. This accessibility is excellent for tool storage when certain items may be required quickly. Since stored items are not contained within drawers, they are also easily visible and slatwall panels allow for organisation optimisation. It is also popular to mount bicycles onto slatwall panels, keeping them securely off the ground. With certain accessories, such as aluminium Easyfit wall battens, you can confidently place heavier items onto home slatwall panels with peace of mind that they and the panels are safe.
These storage advantages are now being brought into the home. When searching for home decor idea inspiration on websites such as Pinterest, it is now common to see many living spaces adopting slatwall panels. They bring the same organisational advantages to rooms. Children’s bedrooms are a prime example and they often benefit from wall storage, not only keeping toys tidy but also allowing a clearer floor space to play. However, they are also being used as an alternative clothing space for some homes, as the bulky size and limitations of wardrobes are being replaced with more open options. With certain accessories, you can hang all your clothing items in a stylish open plan that brings more space into your room.
Slatwall panels, even in the home, do not need to be solely for practical usage. While retaining these advantages, they are still being installed as a fashionable decorative shelving alternative. Living rooms and relaxing spaces are a great place to install slatwall panels, as they can be used to hang plants or frames, or even mount easily movable shelves onto.
