How to Measure for a Bookshelf

Wall space, shelf depth, ceiling height, doorway clearance, bookshelf measurements that prevent a return trip to IKEA.

Bookshelves come in fixed dimensions, IKEA Billy is 80 cm wide × 28 cm deep × 202 cm tall, for example. Your job is to make sure those dimensions fit your space, your books, and your doorway.

  • Adjacent furniture clearance

단계별 안내

  1. Wall width available. Tap left obstacle (wall, other furniture, door frame) to right. This is your max shelf width.
  2. Ceiling height. Floor to ceiling. Tall bookshelves (200+ cm) need to clear when tilted into position, subtract about 2 cm of tilt clearance.
  3. Depth (toward room). Distance from wall to nearest obstacle (sofa, coffee table, walking path). Most shelves 28-40 cm deep.
  4. Doorway for delivery. Many bookshelves ship in one piece. Compare shipping box dimensions to your front door, hallway, room door.

  • Floor must be level, wedges or shims fix small slope
  • Anchor tall shelves to the wall, earthquake/child safety

흔한 실수

  • Forgetting ceiling tilt clearance, bookshelf doesn't stand up
  • Buying too-deep shelves for narrow rooms
