Ratings and reviews
Terrible design. Poor quality.AnneInstructions direct you to secure the book case against the wall before starting. It is easier if you do NOT do this, but lay the thing on the floor.
They could very easily mark where to attach hinges on the door frame so that the hinges align with the holes on the case. This is pressboard, so you cannot afford to be putting screws in and out or the attachment points disintegrate. Instructions show "A, B and C" placements for hinged but these are NOT marked. Marking hinge location could be so easy but, they don't do that. It's impossible to assemble without doing your own measurements and possibly damaging your shelf.
No excuse for this bad quality.
Build quality and colour optionEdwardThe craftsmanship of the Högbo glass door is mediocre. The vertical frames on both sides aren’t straight—they curve inward like an hourglass—resulting in a larger gap in the middle compared to the top and bottom. Overall, I’d rate it 6.5 out of 10.
When this product was first released, it was available in black, but now only the white version is offered. Unless installed on a white Billy bookcase, the door doesn't match well with walnut or black Billy bookcases. I had no choice but to spray-paint it to address this issue.
Interestingly, the black Högbo is still available in the U.S.
Limited SelectionKin-Wai StephenWhy US has the black color but Canda don't. Very disappointing.
horrible door, the lock dose not work. DO NOT RECOMMEND! LianghuiI purchased the IKEA HÖGBO glass door, and it has been a disappointment since day one. The locking mechanism that connects the metal part to the bookcase is poorly designed and doesn't hold the door securely. The door started coming loose and wouldn’t close properly after just a few days, even less than a week. We spent several hours assembling it, only for it to fail almost immediately. The design simply doesn't make sense. Fortunately, neither we nor our cats were injured when the door came loose, but it’s unacceptable that this product is so poorly made. It is not an expensive door, but feel horrible to pay $70 for this bad quality/design and living in danger.
Love these doors makes roomTheresaLove these doors makes room look clean and tidy with everything covered. Especially like the door depth, there is a cavity in door allowing door to fully close even if item is slightly deeper than shelf depth.
