Some clamp-on pegboards can use under-desk space, you can try this type of pegboard if your desk sides have more space than the desktop. Or, if you prefer a more spacious desktop area to stretch your arms when you are gaming or working on jobs that need a wide worksurface in the garage, it is also a suitable choice.

Another suggestion is that, clamp-on pegboards always have a long, prominent clamp screw beneath the desk board for fixing. If you want a simpler look around your desk, you can try screw mounting pegboards. It makes the same outcome as the clamp one but with a cleaner look.

Use Hanging Pegboards to Store Flexibly and Effortlessly

If you have a privacy panel on your office desk, except for adding a clamp-on pegboard on the desk sides, you may also consider using a hanging pegboard to organize your office tools. This type of pegboard requires no screws or drilling, all you have to do is hang it on the upper edge of the panel. You can use a hanging pegboard on anything with a suitable edge, and it costs you no effort to remove or change its place after that.

Use Wall-Mounted Pegboards to Boost Storage and Decorate Your Rooms

If the space around your desktop has been taken up with lots of things, or the environment like a kitchen is not suitable for a clamp-on pegboard, you may want to look up and use the space around the wall. Wall-mounted pegboards can make the most use of the wide, empty walls of your rooms, creating lots of extra space for your stuff.
