    What is the proper name of this item (photo)??

    I have tried looking for these hook thingys everywhere & I cannot find them & everyone I talk to looks at me as if I'm retarded or something lol

    Back home it was a very common hook thingy, but apparently not out here.

    SO if anyone can tell me the proper name, or where I can get them, PLEASE let me know... I really want my bookcase set up, as I have thousands of $$ in books I need to use.


    Thanks

    I have no clue about the name, but I think I know what you mean...... like those thingies that they use in petshops of like walmart where you place this metal hook/hanger in a wooden "wall" with like carved stripes...... sorry i don´t know how to call them

    maybe you can ask at any store what they call those things

    oh oh... or you can go to hope depot or any hardware store

    If it's what Husky_mom just described, it's called peg board. You can find them at hardware stores.

    I think this is what you're looking for- http://www.lowes.com/lowes/lkn?actio...148&lpage=none

    I don't know if it has a proper name, but I think you should be able to find it in the shelving section at your hardware store.

    Thats the wrong kind... these hook thingys are only 2cm to 1 inch long.

    The metal grid strip thingy goes on the inside of the sides of the bookcase.. it takes 2 strips/side, so 4 hook thingies are needed for every shelf.
