You can hang your board wherever you want it, but above a workbench would be the most convenient. This way, everything will be within reach. Once you have decided where to hang the board, locate the wall studs and mark them with a pencil. Drywall will have studs, but brick or cement walls may not have any. You may need to adjust the placement of your board in order to fit it over the wall studs. Make these holes right next to the screws holding the planks to the back of the board. The holes need to be big enough for your brass screws to fit into. Make sure that you drill through both the board and the planks. Hold the pegboard against the wall where you want it to go. Next, have someone hold the board in place while you mark the holes in the board with a pencil. Use a level to ensure that the board is straight. If your wall has studs in it, make sure that you are placing the holes over the studs. If you can't fit a pencil through the holes, dip a skewer into paint, then poke it through the holes. Don't worry, the wall anchors will cover the paint. Make sure that you use a drill bit appropriate for the wall. A brick or cement wall will require a masonry drill bit, while a wooden wall or a drywall will require a standard drill bit. Make sure that the hole is big enough for the wall anchor. Push wall anchors into the holes in the wall. Have someone help you hold the board over the wall so that the holes match up with the anchors. Insert screws into the holes, then drill them into place. Plastic wall anchors will work for thinner boards, but if you have a thick board, choose a metal wall anchor instead. If you painted your board previously, use a small brush and extra paint to cover up the screws for a neater finish.
