Internal dimensions BILLY bookcase

greensalad

Does anyone have access to any BILLYs from IKEA and can help me out with internal dimensions? Or does anyone know where I can get any good baskets to fit in them?

Have just ordered BILLYs with doors. Both the low-height ones. One wide one narrow.

This one and this one.

I'm keen to get some baskets ordered/picked up in town before these arrive so I can build them and put them to use right away

Does anyone know what the internal shelf measurements are? I know the shelves can be moved in height, but a rough number on that would be appreciated.

The depth of both from the front face of the unit to the front of the backing board is 26.5cm.

The width between the uprights is 36cm for the narrow unit, and 76cm for the wider unit.

Those dimensions are available on the Ikea website - look at the extra shelves here and here.

I'll not try to guess the height of the boxes you need because, as you say, they are variable and can be almost anything you like - in 3.2cm increments.

Ah clever, I didn't think to look at the widths of the shelves.

Do you know the full internal dimension from top to bottom, no shelves?

Thanks so much for your help

Yes, it's 94.2cm.

If you have doors, be aware that the hinges prevent you from having shelves in some positions.
