About Pegboardly
Pegboardly turns planning a pegboard into something closer to a puzzle than a spreadsheet. Drag your real tools onto a grid, check everything fits and clears its neighbours, then print a template that's the exact size of your wall.
What it does
Pegboardly is a free 2D planner for pegboards — both the 1-inch garage grid and IKEA SKÅDIS-compatible 40 mm boards. You lay out hooks, bins, shelves and tool holders by dragging them onto the grid; the planner snaps each one to real holes and warns you when two pieces would collide or run out of clearance. When the wall looks right, it gives you two things to take to the workbench: a true 1:1 printable mounting template and a parts list of everything you placed.
Why the 1:1 template matters
Most planners hand you a pretty picture. Pegboardly hands you a stencil. The template tiles across plain A4 or Letter paper at actual size, with alignment marks between sheets and a printed ruler you can measure — a line that is exactly 100 mm when you print at 100%. Tape it to the wall, drill through the marks, and the holes land where your plan put them. Print at 100% / actual size, never "fit to page," and it fits the first time.
It runs entirely in your browser
There's no account, no upload, and no server doing the work. The planner runs on your device, saves your layout locally, and only ever shares it when you copy a share link. Your pegboard plan is yours — it doesn't leave your machine unless you send it. We use privacy-first, region-aware analytics — opt-in in the EU/EEA/UK, on by default with an opt-out elsewhere — to see which guides actually help; you can read exactly how in our privacy policy.
Who makes it
Pegboardly is a small, independent project built for makers, DIYers and tidy-garage obsessives — free to use and supported by ads on the content pages (never on the planner itself). Questions, bug reports, or a layout you're proud of? Email support@pegboardly.com. New here? The fastest way to get it is to open the planner and drag something onto the grid.
