There are several options to add a tool wall to your wall, most of them have to be installed directly to the wall (or to a flat panel attached to the wall). But with this product, you can conveniently combine one or more tool walls (peg boards) with some shelves above and/or below, using the P-Slot rail system.

All of these accessories, plus several more kinds, are also available to be purchased separately. So you get a good basic starter kit and then you can add extra hooks / hangers / bins to customize the peg board to your requirements. I suggest to check each product's sample photos to get an idea of which accessory is suitable for which tool / item, and then get one or few of each and test them out, until you find out what works best for you.
To install the tool wall, you have to screw the rails to the wall. RegalRaum sells hardware kits with TOX wall anchors, but I chose to use Fischer DuoPower 2K for extra security. Use a long construction level to set the rails (uprights) vertically.
The kit comes with single rails (one column of slots). If you plan to hang multiple tool walls and/or shelves side-by-side, it is useful to get twin rails (two columns of slots side-by-side). Use single rails at the leftmost and rightmost positions and twin rails at all other positions. It's also ok to use twin rails at all positions.
The distance between the rails should be measured quite well, there's a bit of room for error, but it's better to have this done accurately. The instructions that came with my order specify the rail-to-rail distance as measured between the mounting holes. Therefore, the prescribed distance is slightly different, it depends on whether you have two single rails, two double rails, or one of each. Keep this in mind when measuring.
