ABSTRACT:
A slatwall system having a central, female, and male channels. The central channel includes top and bottom slots, as does the female channel, whereas the male channel includes a top slot and a bottom tongue. The channels may be arrayed on a wall such that the female channel bottom slot and the central channel top slot face each other, and so that the central channel bottom slot and the male channel top slot face each other. The facing slots of these channels thereby define grooves where hanging implements may be inserted. Further, the female and male channels are sized and configured such that when a male channel bottom tongue is inserted within a female channel top slot, the combined female and male channels have substantially the same size and configuration as the central channel; in other words, the male channel top slot resembles the central channel top slot and the female channel bottom slot resembles the central channel bottom slot. This arrangement allows multiple central channels (or combined male and female channels) to be stacked atop each other, and/or stacked below female channels and above male channels, to define a slatwall array having numerous grooves for hanging implements. Terminal members for vertically terminating the top sides and bottom sides of a slatwall array are also shown and described, as are spacer members for allowing spacing of the hanging grooves at desired vertical locations.
