The first step is to size some spacers. If the pegboard is mounted directly against the wall, there won't be room behind it for the hooks to fit in. To create a little space, I used some leftover wood scraps from the basement shelves.
Once everything was fitted and checked for size, the spacers were attached directly to the garage wall.
After I drill pilot holes, my wife attached both pegboard panels with washers. She loves organization and was very excited for this project. She mentioned that her mother once set up a similar pegboard for her father in an effort to keep the garage cleaner, but her father didn't like the bother of replacing tools back in their place afterwards.
She also arranged all the hooks on the boards. It's convenient to use and easy to find the tools I want. I even put them back afterwards. :)
