BILLY Bookcase series

Introduction

Storage for all occasions and needs

The BILLY bookcase is a beloved icon that never goes out of style. Thanks to its versatility, it can be used in many different ways at home, regardless of whether you store books or everyday items. A single unit can be enough, but you can also add more bookcases, extension units, and shelves to create a larger and more personal combination. BILLY is available in different heights, widths, and expressions, so you can always find a storage solution that suits you and your home!

Better and better, day by day

BILLY was launched in 1979 and is just as popular today. IKEA is constantly working to make the series even better, more relevant, and more useful. Some changes, like new wooden expressions, are immediately visible. Others take longer to discover, for example that BILLY is made of a high-quality paper foil finish and that the back panel attaches with snap fittings. This makes it easy to assemble and disassemble, so you can bring it when moving and continue to enjoy your BILLY for years.

Safety

This furniture must be attached to the wall with the enclosed wall fastener. Different wall materials require different types of fixing devices. Use fixing devices suitable for the walls in your home (not included). Tempered glass should be handled with care! A damaged edge or a scratched surface can cause the glass to break suddenly, but it breaks into small pieces, never into sharp fragments.

A high standard of accuracy has been sought in the preparation of this buying guide. IKEA apologizes for, but will not be bound by or responsible for, errors and omissions in this buying guide. Not all products may be available in all stores. See what is available at your local store by visiting IKEA-USA.com/stockavailability. For more detailed product information, see the price tag or visit IKEA-USA.com. All products shown require assembly. All textiles shown are imported.
