Wall Builder

Frequently Asked Questions:

"FAQs"

Can it be locked?

Yes. We sell a variety of locking options here. You can choose to lock individual firearms or multiple at once. We suggest that you also consider securing your entire gun wall or gun room. Theft deterrence and general gun safety begins with the overall security and safety of your home first.

Can it be mounted to concrete or cinder block walls?

Yes. Many of our customers go this route. Below are two common ways to do this, otherwise feel free to give us a call for questions with installation 1-866-443-6623:

1. Our recommended and easiest option is to fur out your concrete walls with studs, then you can secure your gun wall with the screws provided. Here's a video showing that process: Click To See Video . We recommend going 16" on center with screws in both channels of each slatwall rail.

2. You can mount directly to the cinder block or concrete wall, but you will need to purchase concrete screws. We've found that using a pan head 3/16" x 1-1/4" concrete screw works best. Here is an option that works well: Amazon Link

Will this hold more traditional rifles?

Our racks are designed to work with any style of long gun and handgun (traditional or tactical). From old muzzleloaders to fully built battle rifles, and everything in-between, our racks are designed to display them or your money back.

How do you install around outlets?

Customers normally cut the slatwall to go around the outlet. Although the aluminum slatwall is strong, it's easy to cut with a good metal cutting circular saw or jigsaw blade. Here's a video of someone talking about doing this with their wall: click to see video

Yes. Our slatwall panels are made to be expandable. As your firearm collection grows, our slatwall system allows you to install new slatwall pieces and gun racks to your existing gun wall. When you’re ready, you can give us a call, and our team will get you the exact slat wall pieces and gun racks you need to fit your growing collection.

Is there a weight limit for the wall?

We do have general weight recommendations for our gun walls. But it is important to note that our slat wall is much stronger than our racks, meaning our racks will fail prior to our slat wall.

Our general weight recommendations depend on how you install your gun wall. Each slatwall piece is graded for 50lbs per stud its screwed into. So the overall weight limit of your wall depends on your home’s stud spacing, the size of your gun wall and the slatwall pieces that it's built with, and as well as where you decide to place your gunwall along those studs.

What is the weight rating on the hooks/racks

This depends on the hook/rack. Our most popular option, the Vertical 6 Gun Rack holds up to 100 lbs safely. Our Singular, Vertical Long Gun hook holds up to 15 lbs.

Are holes for the screws pre-drilled?

Our drill guide and self tapping screws make pre-drilled holes unnecessary. This results in a quick and easy installation.

Will these racks accommodate guns with scopes?

Yes. We know you’re probably used to the cramped quarters of a gun safe, but our slat wall system is different. You can choose from a variety of firearm racks, with the ability to custom fit spacing, and make sure your firearms with scopes fit.

Can my gun wall be a different height or width?

Yes, the size of our gun walls are customizable to fit your specific space. You can design your own using our gun wall builder or contact our team and we will design your wall for free: 1-866-443-6623 or contact@holdupdisplays.com.

Custom sizing information (please read):

Width: Our standard website offering allows you to customize your width in 1-foot increments. We do offer custom cuts for more precise widths. Please give us a call (1-866-443-6623) if this is something you are interested in.

Height: Customizable in 6-inch increments. 6-inch increments is the only option as we are unable to cut the height of our rails.
