Smart wall storage (with 4 small holes, period)

Summary — In an apartment, you want storage without altering the walls. A wall-mounted pegboard is the best option: four well-placed holes unlock dozens of accessories (hooks, shelves, bins) that you can move around as you please. The result: neat, modular, and easily reversible from the start.

Understanding the limits of the lease (and keeping the deposit)

• Reread the "damage / holes" clause : most leases tolerate small holes that are properly filled upon departure.

• Note the condition of the premises : photograph walls, baseboards, door and window frames.

• Ask the owner a simple question if you are unsure: “I would like to add 4 holes that were originally filled in — is that OK with you?”.

• Guiding principle : prioritize reversibility , load distribution , no traces .

Why a pegboard (and not something else)?

• Minimalist : 4 anchor points, that's all! Installation in 10 minutes.

• Ultra-modular : hooks/shelves can be moved in 10 seconds, without re-drilling.

• Reversible : on exit, quick filling (plaster + touch-up).

• Space saving : you free up floor and work surface space.

Set up

1. Choose a compact format (e.g., Aire 48 x 48 cm pegboard ).

2. Follow the guide to attach the panel to the wall (10 minutes installation).

3. Make do with accessories !
