Slat-wall Panels

 
Slat wall panels can be purchased in sheets already cut to the following sizes; 4' x 4' or 8' x 4' however bespoke sizes can be made to your display requirements should your sizes not meet the standard sizes. Please contact us in regards to this if you require further information. Slatwall panels are an economical way to display. These are as standard in a portrait orientation; cut with equal borders to take inserts and have slots at 100mm pitch (other sizes available if you need the slots closer or wider apart). Available in a wide range of finishes, whether you need cream or aluminium then Valentino's Displays has an excellent product range for slatwall panels and its accessories. Slatwall is a piece of MDF with a melamine finish to the front with horizontal slots across. Once its in place you can decide what products you are going to use, but this is dependent on how you wish to display your products.

Remember boards weigh in excess of 20kg each so please be sure you have extra hands in aiding to move these boards into position. The easiest way we tell our customers to fit these boards is before you put any inserts into the horizontal slots and when the boards are in place you want to drill through the slots e.g. backing of the slatwall board, ensure you have drilled an equal proportion from one side to another. You can never be to safe with the amount of screws you want to use to hold the board up so the more the better remember these are heavy without products on so when you have retail fixtures and fittings on as well these will get heavier so ensure you have drilled enough holes to support the board. When the board is up then you can use the inserts in the horizontal slots to cover up the screws so you won't see them and then that is that and you have a professional looking job using slatted wall panels.
 

Chrome Grids & Grid-wall

 
Chrome Grid, Chrome Grids or Gridwall which ever way you wish to call it is an effective and cost effective way to make a retail display. Generally used for merchandising and can be freestanding if bought with T legs or wall mounted using wall brackets. The Grid has squares of 3 inches by 3 inches. All grids are 2 ft wide and vary in height from 4ft to 8ft. They can be used in either a portrait or landscape position and because of this means the system in general is versatile and can be changed if needed.

Available with a range of accessories to merchandise from with a large selection of display arms, shelves and baskets to suit your display needs. If using these with T legs then you will be up and running in minutes as self assemble is simple. If using the chrome grids with wall brackets then the wall brackets will need to be positioned correctly, holes will need to be marked within the bracket (4) and then drill through the wall and affix the bracket using 4 screws. We recommend one bracket in each corner of the grid. When the brackets are fixed the grid can then be attached.
 

Clothes Hangers & Coat Hangers

 
Hangers are great for keeping clothing off the floor, but they can protect your clothes from damage as well. Different types of the hanger are used for different purposes. For example, metal or wire hangers are great for everyday use, but you should not use metal or wire hangers to hang damp clothing up to dry. The wire can rust and leave stains on your clothing. Instead, you would probably choose plastic, or coated wire hangers, which are treated with a vinyl coating to protect your garments; some even have a non-slip surface to keep delicate items from sliding off the hanger. Hangers with wire hooks and wooden bodies are usually used for hanging more substantial items such as trousers, jackets, or suits. There are hangers that come with a clip on each end that are perfect for hanging skirts or trousers. This style can also be used for hanging strapless items. Padded hangers are perfect for hanging delicate clothing or lingerie. Usually covered in satin or velvet.

There are even specially designed hangers for ties, scarves, belts and other accessories. Tie hangers are usually constructed from wood with several clips lined up across the lower rung so ties can be hung up easily. Belt hangers are similar in design, with hooks instead of clips, to help keep belts in place. Child hangers are available in metal and wire, coated wire, wood, or plastic, and they are designed especially for hanging smaller garments. They come in many colours, and using different colours is a great way to help children learn how to sort their clothes. For example, red can be used for short-sleeved shorts, while blue might indicate long sleeves or jumpers. With the product range of hangers being so vast the price varies, some hangers are sold individually and some by the box quantity. There are substantial discounts on larger quantities of retail quality hangers.
