Homebase (or other) shelving

[Brvtality]

I'm looking for some shelves to replace some I have that are quite poor for the job, and far too tall.

Has anyone got a link to any good ones they use from Homebase (preferably with home delivery available) or even from other vendors?

Thanks a lot in advance guys.

When I go to work later, i'll take pictures of the ones we have available, along with the product codes so that you can make your choice. One thing I will say about the website (that I probably shouldn't, but oh well ), is that it is only right, 10% of the time.

We admire your honesty.

I was thinking about getting a metal shelving unit like the one from Wickes, as I can add more shelves when needed. I wonder has anyone done the same? It looks like it could be quite expensive in the long run and you'd have to buy the shelves separately (and paint and cut them if needed). It's a pain as I don't have room for a freestanding unit and I've run out of space.

I've got some of these in beech, they can be seen in my HT gallery - not bad for 100-200 blus if you get 2-3 and put them side by side and relatively cheap too.

Are you any good at woodwork? I fancy doing something like this in our loft, just starting to get stuff together for doing it, got a proper walk up pull down case on it and gonna finish prepping it for boarding tonight.



Do you have any free floorspace or does it have to be wallmounts? Ikea's 'Billy' range are pretty good, I have a pic of mine on my HT pics so you can see. Good and sturdy. Back to shelves if your handy enough i'd recommend making for own, custom sizes you want etc, unique design, better satisfaction

I would try Focus, there's bound to be some people down there you could employ to stand in your front room and hold your collection

These are the ones I bought from Homebase not to long ago. Actually got 3 of those now

Price jumped up to £30 for the last one I bought, and they will require some DIY knowledge so you'll have to coat, buy a backboard, cut for the skirting board and assemble it yourself.

Yea I use a Homebase one as well. If you want a backing board for it which I did, the best thing to do is go to B&Q. One of their pre cut sizes of hardboard is the exact width of the cabinet and costs around £2.50 for a sheet. Then you just need to cut it down to size in terms of length.

As I've said before I have searched the web.. and was close to importing shelves from the US before finding these.. they are perfect.

Couldn't be easier to put together as well.. back board is almost essential as mentioned above.. cost me £5 for enough to cover 2 of them.
