Essential Materials for Building Nerf Gun Storage

You need a few key materials to build your Nerf gun storage. 

PVC pipes

PVC pipes are great for building a Nerf gun storage rack. You need two 1 ½" PVC 4-way tees, two 1 ½" PVC 3-way tees, and four end caps. Get about 15 feet of PVC pipe to have enough material.

A PVC pipe cutter or miter box will help get the right size pieces. Use PVC primer and cement to hold everything together firmly. This ensures your rack stays sturdy for all those toy guns! 

Feel free to paint them with spray paint from Home Depot for a fun, custom look!

Peg boards

Peg boards make a great way to organize your Nerf blasters and accessories. Attach blocks of wood behind the peg board to give it extra support. This helps keep your nerf collection safe and secure on the wall.

Use S hooks to hang guns, and peg hooks for smaller items like Nerf darts.

Add vinyl wording above the board for a fun touch! Set up in your storage closet or another handy spot in your home, these boards turn chaos into order quickly. Grab one from your local hardware store...just measure first so you get the right size!

Step-by-Step Guide to Constructing a Nerf Gun Rack

Measure your PVC pipes carefully, then cut them to size. Assemble the structure and add hooks for hanging Nerf guns and accessories.

Measuring and cutting PVC pipes

Grab your PVC pipe and a measuring tape. Use the tape to measure the length you need for each piece. Mark these spots with a pencil or marker.

Next, use a handsaw or pipe cutter to make clean cuts at those marks. Smooth any rough edges with sandpaper to avoid sharp spots.

Assembling the rack structure

Join the two 1 ½" PVC 4-way tees with one of the PVC pipes. Add another pipe to each open end, then connect a three-way tee at either side. Repeat these steps for both sides of your rack structure using the remaining pipes and tees.

Ensure all parts are snugly fit.

Secure the frame well so it's sturdy enough to hold several Nerf blasters. Slide in extra horizontal pipes between vertical supports as needed. Once finished, it’s ready for hooks and other storage solutions to hang your favorite Nerf guns.

Adding hooks for hanging guns

Large S hooks work well for hanging Nerf guns. Attach them to peg boards set up in your storage area. This keeps the guns easy to grab and off the floor.

Use specific hooks for different types of Nerf stuff, like blasters or sabers. Peg hooks can hold various items securely on peg boards, creating a neat display without cluttering shelves.
