Eleven or twelve inches of depth rules out the strip beside a doorway, the run behind a door, and the gap between a desk and the corner. Those are usually the only free spots left.

This is 9.5 inches deep and 67 inches tall, so it uses wall rather than room. Five compartments and a 200 lb total rating, with two anti tipping kits to hold it to the wall.

The gap beside the desk

Tall and narrow suits the awkward strips of wall most rooms have. Here it fills the space next to a desk without crowding the chair. The compartments are deep enough for paperbacks and files standing upright.

Two make a wall

Stand a pair side by side and you have ten compartments across a single wall, still only 9.5 inches out from it. It works as a room divider backdrop behind a desk too.

Anchored, not balanced

Two anti tipping kits come in the box. On a 67 inch unit that is 9.5 inches deep, fixing the top to the wall is not optional if there are children or pets around.

A slim footprint that fits strips of wall a standard bookcase cannot use.

The manufacturer rates the whole bookcase at 200 lbs when it is wall anchored.

Five full width bays, open at the front, closed on the back and both sides.

Both wall anchors are in the box, so it can be secured as you build it.

An MDF P2 veneer with sealed edges that takes a damp cloth without swelling.

A matte black finish that reads as a dark rectangle rather than a shiny one.

The run beside a door or a window reveal is usually too shallow for anything else.

A 9.5 inch depth takes paperbacks and most trade sized books without overhang.

Both wall anchors come in the box, so it goes up secured on the first day.

How deep is it?

9.5 inches deep, 23.5 inches wide and 67 inches tall.

How much weight will it take?

The manufacturer rates the whole bookcase at 200 lbs.

Are the shelves adjustable?

No. The five compartments are fixed, which is part of why the frame stays rigid at this depth.

Does it need to be fixed to the wall?

Two anti tipping kits are supplied and we would use them. A unit 67 inches tall and 9.5 inches deep should be anchored.
