Gridwall is one of the most versatile display options on the market today. Unlike other displays, gridwall can be used on the wall or as a free-standing display. Just about any product can be displayed on gridwall. This is due to the versatile nature of the gridwall.
Clips can be used to create free-standing displays. You can use your imagination to come up with a design that is flattering to your products. You can also create intricate designs that fit in oddly shaped spaces, such as in corners or under other shelving.
Gridwall accessories include hooks, shelves, bars and racks. Gridwall is very sturdy and can support the weight of larger merchandise. Small hooks can be used to display smaller accessories, such as jewelry, hats, belts, sunglasses or purses. The possibilities are endless.
Gridwall can also be mounted on the wall for even more space-saving convenience. Gridwall can be used for clothing as well as electronics, tools, shoes or other bulky items. It enables you to display your promotions high up above your other shelves and racks. This keeps things on eye-level with your customers. It can help you catch their attention and intrigue them from afar. You can get customers to areas of the store that they may not have otherwise visited. This translates into more interest and ultimately more sales.
Use gridwall to create mobile free-standing displays. Gridwall is light-weight and can be moved easily to other areas. You can use them for sidewalk sales and other special promotions. Gridwall can be taken down, rearranged and reconfigured in minutes. Its simple design makes it one of the most versatile assets in your store. When not in use, gridwall can be easily stored and takes up a minimal space.
If you have slatwall displays in your store, you can use most of the accessories that you already have for your slatwall on your gridwall. Acrylic shelving is available if you want your product to stand out without the display detracting any attention. Bases with rollers are available if you need a mobile display. You can use your gridwall designs for permanent or temporary displays. They are sturdy, easy to assemble and inexpensive. Many retail stores have discovered the ease and convenience of gridwall. It usually comes in decorative colors, chrome and black. Therefore, it can stand out or blend in as much as you want it to. All you need to get started are some gridwall sections, connectors and hooks or shelving. You will not believe how easy they are to store and manage.
When you need to save space in your store, gridwall is the way to go. If you need to display odds and ends, gridwall is your answer. If you need a versatile inexpensive display solution, gridwall is for you. Consider gridwall when designing your retail store. It is easy to add pieces later if you realize that you could use some more. In the ever-changing environment of a retail store, gridwall can be your steady staple.
