Originally developed solely as a means to secure firearms for another on-going project, the Peg-Lock system has proven to be far more versatile than we imagined. The pegs lock into the blister board with a quarter turn and each peg can support 30lbs. The boards can be screwed, glued, or riveted to just about any surface without framing, shimming, or furring. The best part is, the pegs stay put when you remove the object that they were holding! To keep production costs down, the pegs were designed in two parts to avoid undercuts. Peg-Lock is now in production and can be ordered from JKM Associates.
