Ikea Skådis wall spacers

thingiverse

Ikea Skådis wall spacers come in various lengths, including the original 20 mm length and longer versions. The image shows a comparison between the 30 mm version on the left and the standard Ikea Skådis wall spacer on the right. To provide extra support, I secured a 10 mm thick lath to the wall with screws inserted directly into the wall studs. Next, I screwed the Ikea Skådis pegboards through the lath and into the plaster wall. This setup necessitated longer wall spacers at the bottom of each pegboard compared to those that came bundled with the boards. To fill this need, I designed a 3D printable version in Fusion 360 with a customizable length parameter. I then printed wall spacers with a 30 mm length. For anyone who might find this useful, I've also exported STL files for 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 50 mm lengths. The screw hole dimension is M4.5x0.75, which provides a good fit for the bolts that come with Skådis pegboards.
