This is a really cool video. I built my tool wall before I heard of French cleats. I'm going to strip everything off of it and re-make it with these cleats. I've also started marketing French cleats as home decor. First time watcher; new subscriber.

Yes they are! I used the scraps and left over pieces to make all my cleats. I would suggest making several extra cleats to use for in the future while you have your tools all set up.
That is what worked best as far as spacing for my wall. I wanted it to all be evenly spaced but 5 or 8 inches was too big of a spacing. I needed enough space for my cleats to slide in easy and 3 worked great for me. If you put them too close you won’t be able to slide your cleats in easily.
Would you have a recommendation on what plywood to use for the cleats? Thickness, grade, type, etc. Ive built several 'walls' onto work benches using very nice expensive plywood. But that'll get really expensive for the full wall inwant to. Especially since im putting it onto a concrete brick wall. That ill first need use fir strips and full.sheets of plywood before the cleats go on.
I personally used 3/4 inch cabinet grade plywood. Plenty of strength and it looks good. Don’t buy plywood from Home Depot or Lowe’s, reach out to a local hardwood dealer and the plywood will be cheaper. The bigger the dealer the better. My local dealer has 4x8 3/4 inch plywood for $55 a sheet. If you don’t have any local hardwood dealer, try a local cabinet shop. Sometimes they order in bulk and will give you a deal.
Bro, plywood must be free in America! Dear lord just a sheet of crappy birch plywood will run you $230 a sheet here in Sweden! Awesome wall though. I might just go with 2x4 for the wall cleats and then make the holders out of MDF and just paint everything in a dark grey.
@@grovebuildsI did it yesterday..I messed up half a sheet doing your measurements..made the comment for ppl following your guide measurements..great video besides that and my wall looks great!
Looks great with the green background. I really like the idea of the cleat system simply because I don't have to commit to tool location! LOL
The dark green with plywood is my new favorite look! Im very indecisive when it comes to tool location and it’s always evolving.

You won’t be sorry you did it! My only regret with French cleats is not doing it sooner. Thanks for subscribing!!
So much variety. I appreciate your talent 😉😉
Thank you!!
Looks good. Wish i had a prewired wall to work with.
Thank you! I actually jumped off a plug in from my upstairs in the attic to run the electrical to the entertainment center
Looks really good. Nice job!
Thank you!
Very nice and neatly done
Thank you!
That's a really cool intro you have now.... You are super talented... Good luck on future endeavors...
Best videographer I know helped out with it!!😎
Absolutely amazing brother!!
Thanks man!!
me guardo el video, me encanto. te voy a copiar el diseno. Thank you very much Senor
@@la_uruguacha thank you!!
Great video
Thank you!!
Given me doom brilliant ideas for my wall I am going to do, hope it does Not matter how thick the French cleat is
Mine are 2 inches thick and that is the “sweet spot” in my opinion. They look good but more importantly they can hold ALOT of weight!

Are the cleats you used for the tool holders the same size as the ones installed on the wall, if not what dimensions were they?
Yes they are! I used the scraps and left over pieces to make all my cleats. I would suggest making several extra cleats to use for in the future while you have your tools all set up.
Ok… I see ya!!!!
😉😉
Why the 3” spacer? Why not 2 or 5? I’ve seen others go up to 8”, however I believe that would limit the amount of tool hangers.

Dude. How thick is the plywood!
3/4 inch

@@HaasGrotesk I get mine for $55 a sheet at my hardwood dealer. Your plan sounds good too!
Cut your strips to 3 1/2 …not 3 1/4
Sure what Ricki said!🤷🏻♂️
