HORUSDY 238-Piece Pegboard Hooks Assortment, Pegboard Accessories with Pegboard Bins for Organizing Various Tools

Why I reached for this kit

My shop had reached that tipping point where pliers were stacked on pliers and tape measures played hide-and-seek behind a stack of driver bits. I wanted a single, affordable assortment that would let me overhaul a full 4x8 sheet of pegboard without chasing piecemeal accessories. That’s what pushed me toward the HORUSDY pegboard kit: 238 pieces, a mix of hooks and small bins, and compatibility with both 1/8-inch and 1/4-inch pegboard. On paper, it promised coverage for almost everything that lives on a wall.

Setup and first impressions

Out of the box, the kit doesn’t try to impress with presentation. The hooks and accessories arrive in a single large bag, which means your first task is sorting. Plan on 20–30 minutes laying things out and matching like with like. It’s not glamorous, but it’s worth doing; once I grouped each hook style and counted them, planning the wall layout was much easier.

The hooks themselves are hardened steel with a chrome finish. Out of the bag, they’re clean, uniform, and free of rough edges. The chrome isn’t mirror-shiny; it’s a practical, durable finish that resists fingerprints and makes it easy to spot any rust in the future. The bins are bright orange and immediately useful for small hardware.

What’s actually in the assortment

The assortment skews toward the basics, which is exactly what most garages need. Expect a range of:

• Straight hooks in multiple lengths
• Double hooks for bulkier items
• U-shaped and J-style hooks
• A few specialty forms suitable for pliers and screwdrivers
• Small hanging bins
• Retaining clips/locks to keep hooks from pulling out

There are 16 types in total. The sheer volume of pieces means you can build a full wall without rationing the common hooks. That said, some of the 238 “pieces” are the retaining clips that lock hooks to the board. They’re extremely useful, but if you’re expecting 238 hooks, you’ll be disappointed. Think of this as a complete system rather than a raw hook count.

Fit, finish, and durability

The steel stock is adequate for light-to-medium duty storage. I hung common hand tools—hammers, pliers, wrenches, squares, clamps, a 25-foot tape, several drivers—and never felt the hooks flexing or deforming. For heavier items (think a large mallet, a coil of extension cord, or a nailer), the double hooks are the right call. The chrome finish shrugged off oily fingerprints and a week of handling without complaint. Long term, chrome and pegboard make a good pair; if something scuffs, it wipes clean.

One note: pegboard quality varies. On a decent 1/4-inch hardboard sheet, the hooks seat well. On thinner or soft fiberboard, the holes can fuzz and loosen the fit. That’s where the included retaining clips matter.

The retaining clips: fiddly but essential

These clips are the unsung heroes of the kit. Without them, pegboard hooks love to lift out when you pull a tool straight off the wall. With them, the hooks stay planted. Installation is slightly fiddly the first few times—align the hook, thread the clip over the two prongs from the back side, and press until it bites. Once you get the rhythm, it goes quickly. I used clips on every hook that carries a daily-driver tool and left the rarely used hooks free. That balance kept setup time reasonable while preventing the “hook comes off with the wrench” problem.

Performance: day-to-day use

After a full weekend rework, the wall felt intentional. The variety allowed me to give each tool family its own zone: a screwdriver bank near the bench, a row for pliers and snips, double hooks for hammers, and bins for consumables. Because there’s enough redundancy in the assortment, I wasn’t forced into compromises like parking two unlike tools on the same hook. That’s the difference between tidy and truly functional.

Removing and re-hanging tools is smooth with the clips installed. I’m not babying anything, and the hooks remain set. The chrome is easy to keep clean, which matters more than it sounds; visual contrast helps you see at a glance what’s missing.

The bins: helpful, but smaller than you might expect

The orange bins are best for small hardware—screws, anchors, wire nuts, razor blades, chalk, and the like. They’re compact. If you imagine them as little catch-alls for the odds and ends that clutter a bench, you’ll be happy. If you expect them to hold a bag of rags or a fistful of pliers, you’ll be disappointed. I used them for fasteners and labeling tape, and they’ve been great in that role.

Compatibility and load considerations

• Pegboard size: The kit fits both 1/8-inch and 1/4-inch standard pegboards. I tested on 1/4-inch hardboard and on a section of steel pegboard with standard holes; fit was solid on both.
• Not for slotted systems: If you’re using slotted metal panels or proprietary systems, this is the wrong product.
• Load: Use common sense. A single straight hook isn’t the right choice for a gallon of paint. Double up hooks for heavier tools, and use the retaining clips liberally where weight or frequent use is involved.

Pain points and trade-offs

• Packaging chaos: Everything ships together. Sorting is on you. It’s not a deal-breaker, but it turns “open the box and get going” into a short organizing session.
• Learning curve with clips: The locking clips are simple once you’ve done a handful, but they’re awkward at first. Don’t skip them—use them where it matters.
• Bins are small: Perfect for consumables, not for bulky items.
• Piece-count reality: The “238” count includes clips and small accessories. In practice, you still get a generous number of hooks, but it’s worth adjusting expectations if you equate “piece” with “hook.”

Tips for a better setup

• Sketch your wall: Even a quick pencil layout helps you group tools by task—cutting, measuring, fastening—so movement around the bench is efficient.
• Stage by frequency: Eye-level and dominant-hand side for daily drivers; high or low for seldom-used tools.
• Label bins immediately: It’s easier to build habits when the labels match your workflow.
• Test fit with blue tape: Temporarily mark zones and heights before punching a dozen holes.
• Clip strategically: Install retainers on the hooks that see the most action. You can always add more later.

Value and alternatives

This kit lands in a sweet spot for value: more comprehensive than the small assortments, cheaper than piecing together a custom storage wall. You can certainly build a fancier, bespoke setup using specialized holders and magnetic strips, but for a general-purpose shop or garage, this hits 90% of needs at once. The chrome finish and steel construction feel more durable than the bargain-basement kits I’ve used, and the inclusion of bins and retaining clips means fewer “extra” purchases.

Who it’s for

• Home garages and hobby shops looking for a fast path from clutter to order
• Teachers or makerspaces needing lots of hooks for a shared wall
• Renters who want organization without permanent shelves

Who might look elsewhere? If you need heavy-duty storage for large power tools, hoses, or garden implements, a mix of shelves, French cleats, or a slotted steel system will serve you better. This kit is about hand tools and small accessories, not bulk storage.

Final recommendation

I recommend the HORUSDY pegboard kit for anyone building or refreshing a standard pegboard wall who wants an all-in-one, affordable assortment that simply works. It delivers the right mix of common hook styles, a durable chrome finish, and genuinely useful retaining clips that keep tools from dragging hooks out of the board. Expect to spend a little time sorting the box and learning the clips, and be aware that the bins are small and the piece count includes locks. Once it’s up, though, the payoff is real: a clean, dependable tool wall that stays put through daily use.
