I love having the door to hide my craft supplies, but it cost more than the shelf. Had to return as I had an old billy I decided to update with some nice doors.
I bought billy bookcases 3.5 years ago with 2 doors and just bought some more doors. It is estimated that every five seconds, one BILLY bookcase is sold somewhere in the world. Went on the Billy's fast and easy. It is estimated that every five seconds, one BILLY bookcase is sold somewhere in the world. It was easy to attach and looks great! My grandson has the smallest bedroom and I’ve been using the Billy bookcase as shelving for his clothes. Pretty impressive considering we launched BILLY in 1979. I only wish that it came in full length in a solid door. I held the door while hubby naked the location for the screws.
It holds a lot and doesn’t impose too much on the limited size of my space. Behind the panel doors you can keep your belongings hidden and free from dust. Easy to add - only issue for us was that the door knobs didn’t line up ! We ordered them and had them delivered - perfectly packaged and delivered undamaged. The doors were fine, well made, came with all necessary pieces... but the older Billy (Purchased ~2011) don't have enough holes running up the sides to accommodate where the hinges need to fit. Ikea only do a full length glass or half wood half glass so bought 2 half size wooden doors. It is estimated that every five seconds, one BILLY bookcase is sold somewhere in the world. I bought these doors in hopes to freshen up the look of two smaller single unit Billy Bookcases I already owned.
Of course we didn’t read that these doors didn’t fit but it was easy to rectify. Purchased six for two new Billy bookcases & one older model Billy.
It is estimated that every five seconds, one BILLY bookcase is sold somewhere in the world. We originally purchased the Billy but didn't think we would need the Oxberg. Disappointed in the quality of this product because of the damage, but also because the finish (varnish & sanding) is not smooth. this product was so easy to install. OXBERG, door, white. Good piece of furniture just what we wanted. Can be used on the corner unit only if the shelf next to it has no doors. We'd previously bought doors for our bookcases but thought we'd get more.
They do exactly what they are supposed to do and look good too. I used the oxberg door with old billy bookcase and created a ‘welsh dresser’ style storage unit in my kitchen. Attached them to the Billy and a perfect fit. The doors are ok but they do not fully cover opening when added to shelves. Adjustable hinges allow you to adjust the door horizontally and vertically. Adjustable hinges allow you to adjust the door horizontally and vertically. Handle with care! Hardware was defective in two sets of the six doors; had to return to IKEA, return doors & purchase more (employees were lovely; this was time consuming but effective).
