Gridwall Installation and Assembly Instructions

Gridwall Panels & Displays

Gridwall Panels - Displays Gridwall is a heavy duty wire display system used in retail stores, outdoor displays, garages and warehouses. Gridwall Panels feature an industry standard 3 inch on center spaced wire pattern that accepts a multitude of hooks, brackets, shelves, baskets and hanging display accessories. We offer gridwall panels in powder coated white, black, and chrome finishes, making it ideal for outdoor use. Gridwall panels may be used freestanding, wall mounted, with legs, or on rolling bases. Gridwall displays can be seen in use at retail stores, kiosks, fairs, malls, shopping centers and trade shows everywhere. Our gridwall is constructed of heavy duty 1/4" thick steel wire with a reinforced double wire edge on the longest 2 sides of the panel.

Gridwall Legs

Gridwall panels may be used as freestanding displays in a variety of ways. Two gridwall legs will make any individual gridwall panel freestanding. Our T-style legs provide the greatest support and stability for a gridwall panel. We also offer L-shaped legs for use with lightweight items on 2x5 or smaller size gridwall panels.

Gridwall Bases

Gridwall bases are an easy way to create gridwall display units in common configurations such as triangle (3-sided), pinwheel (4-sided) and gondola styles. On rolling bases, gridwall panels will become moveable displays.

Gridwall 3 way bases display (3) Gridwall Panels in a triangle shape. Each side accepts a 2 ft wide panel and panels are connected on the base using gridwall joiners. Wheels allow easy movement of the 3 sided display.

Gridwall 4 way bases display (4) Gridwall Panels in a pinwheel shape. Panels are connected on the base using gridwall joiners. This design creates 4 separate display areas, from the front of each panel and 1 ft side of each adjacent panel. Wheels allow easy movement of the completed display.

Gridwall gondola bases create large displays which utilize both sides of all display panels. Each gondola display base requires (4) 2 ft wide gridwall panels. Panels are connected on the display using gridwall joiners. The resulting "I" shaped display allows complete access to the front and back side of all gridwall panels.

Creating Connected Gridwall Displays

Gridwall panels are often connected to each other for the purpose of creating freestanding displays. Grid panels may be connected together using gridwall joiners (#12-016), which clamp the panels together at the sides. Use gridwall joiners between panels to connect panels together. Each joiner is a small 2-sided clamp which is secured by tightening a center screw. Create U-shaped, I-shaped, Zig-Zag and other freestanding gridwall designs by simply connecting panels together at an angle with gridwall joiners. We recommend using at least 5 gridwall joiners, where gridwall panels are connected. Evenly spacing the gridwall joiners along the joint will keep the gridwall panels securely fastened together. Some accessories for gridwall are also designed to connect between 2 panels. Straight hangrails will span between 2 facing gridwall panels, creating a display area for hanging clothing. Quarter circle hangrails and corner gridwall shelves are also designed for creating display areas between 2 gridwall panels connected at a 90 degree angle. These display accessories will help keep connected panels stable, while providing display space for hanging clothing or bulk items.

Instructions for Installing Wall Mounted Gridwall Panels

Hanging or wall mounting gridwall panels requires wall mount brackets to support the panels on the wall. Use a minimum of 4 wall mount brackets per gridwall panel. The wall mount brackets will require screws depending on the wall and stud material they are being used on. It is always recommended to install the brackets into a wall stud. Install the upper brackets first, with the notch facing upward, then hang the gridwall panel onto the first two brackets. Be sure the panel is plumb and level when resting on the gridwall brackets. Also ensure the front of the gridwall panel is facing outward. The front of the gridwall panel will have the horizontal wires closest to you. Next hook the lower brackets onto the gridwall panel with the notch facing downward and secure them to the wall. This will keep the gridwall panel fully secure and prevent it from being lifted off of the wall mount brackets. Repeat this procedure for each gridwall panel you will be hanging.

Gridwall Accessories

Once all the installation or assembly of all gridwall panels has been completed, the design and layout of the gridwall accessories must be considered. Choosing the correct gridwall accessories is the final step in designing the gridwall display system. A wide range of accessories, hanging displays, hooks, brackets, fixtures, wire displays, and acrylic displays are available for use on the industry standard gridwall display system. Many gridwall accessories are also available to display specific items on gridwall panels such as T-Shirts, shoes, hats, etc. When configuring a grid wall display, the area at eye level, between 5 ft and 6 ft height, should display the items requiring the most emphasis and ease of access. Care should be taken to avoid long gridwall accessories and hooks at lower levels, as these areas are harder to access and small merchandise could be easily damaged by customer foot traffic and shopping carts. Gridwall baskets are often used to conveniently display loose items, while keeping them visible. Signage is also an important part of a gridwall display and acrylic sign holders for gridwall are great for keeping items well marked.

Gridwall versus Slatgrid

Both Gridwall panels and Slatgrid panels are wall display panels constructed of welded steel wire and designed to create hanging product displays. However, Slatgrid panels have a unique horizontal wire design which allows them to accept most Slatwall Accessories in addition to most Gridwall Accessories. This may be particularly useful in retail stores which already use Slatwall Panels and Slatwall Accessories. Like gridwall panels, slatgrid panels may be used wall mounted, and freestanding with legs and bases. Slatgrid panels use the same bases, legs, joiners and wall brackets as gridwall panels. However, unlike gridwall panels, which may be used vertically or horizontally, Slatgrid panels may only be used vertically due to their unique wire design. For example a 2 ft x 8 ft slatgrid panel may only be used in a 2 ft wide by 8 ft high (vertical) orientation, while a 2 ft x 8 ft gridwall panel may be used 8 ft wide (horizontally) or 8 ft high (vertically). Slatgrid panels also have a definitive front and back side. The front of a slatgrid panel is the side with the horizontal wires closest to you. Installing panels with the front facing outward will ensure that hooks and accessories will fit correctly on the display.
