Unfold the back and slide it in

Unfold it and push it into the grooves in the sides, all the way in.

The frame goes together easily. The back panel is the part worth slowing down for: it is what keeps the bookcase from leaning, and some owners tell us it is the piece that slips out of its grooves. Fold it open, slide it home, and check it sits square before you nail it.

Owners talk about the back panel popping out This is the 80 × 28 × 106 cm version, with two adjustable shelves and a plinth base. The taller 202 cm BILLY has a fixed middle shelf and a different back.

Before it comes home

Will it fit where you pictured it?

BILLY is only 28 cm deep, which is what makes it work along a wall or in a hallway. Before you order, check the height against your ceiling, the skirting board behind it, and the turns from your front door to the room.

Dimensions are width × depth × height. Each shelf holds up to 30 kg. Check the listing for your country to confirm the exact version and current details.

A small room-planning trick

Tape it out before you move everything around.

Mark the 80 cm width on the floor with painter’s tape. Now you can see the footprint in the room, and whether the bookcase sits clear of the walkway.

The back has a curved cutout at the bottom so the unit can sit flush against a wall over a skirting board. If your skirting board is taller than the cutout, the bookcase will stand a little away from the wall.

And the last thing people forget: the route in. Check your doorway and hallway turns before delivery day surprises you. The unit is 106 cm tall and comes in one flat package.
