Hegbo door frustrationElizabethI wanted to love this door. The option to insert my own decorative paper behind the glass was the primary reason for purchasing. It’s impossible! I can’t even remove the black board that came with the door as it’s so tightly installed. Am I missing something? Is there a trick to this? It’s been an aggravating task. I’ve even tried to remove the door from the Billy thinking it would be easier to access, but that’s also proved to be impossible! It’s quite pricey for an ill-made product, and I have found all other ikea products to be easily assembled and so innovative. (Sad face)
the door is very good for displaying JingwenI made it as my wine cabinet, that's so great, but I chose the black color of the door, but now only white???
Door is nice, assembly is a choreEdwardAttaching this door to a short Billy bookcase ought to have been a ten minute task. It turned out to be anything but. The critical element is positioning the male hinges so that they mate with the female component that you install on the bookcase itself. As an aid to getting the right placement, IKEA supposedly marks the door's frame with A and B markings where the hinges are to be attached. My frame has an A mark so faint that I had to find it with a magnifying glass. The B mark was completely absent. Assuming the two would be equidistant, I measured carefully but wound up off by an eighth of an inch. After much adjusting accompanied by curses directed at IKEA, I finally got the positioning right. All of this was avoidable if IKEA had marked the door frame as the instructions said. My suggestion is to have IKEA's board of directors compel the firm's CEO to assemble every product before it is approved for sale.
Excellent versatility!!JanetI've used these on several sets of Billy bookcases throughout my home. The inner panel can be customized to suit any decor or left plain. Easy to install and look amazing!!
Perfect HelinaI love this product
Good door!WangI think it is better than OXBERG door functionally and in appearance. I can put photos and other drawings as decorations that makes it look good!
DoorCarolVery difficult to click the door unit onto the hinge section on the bookcase. Maybe you should get older, female people to test the installation ease.
Old Billy bookcases with updated look!Anonymous reviewerI have had Billy bookcases for years but recently updated the look with the Högbo glass doors and it makes for a very sleek, modern, clean-looking appearance. We have the insert in (white side, not clear, not black) but like the option for mixing it up. Will also consider laying wallpaper into it in the future to "customize" the look since it would be relatively easy to update!
no really fit the shelf and opening handle not friendlySherryadjust few times, still not really fit the Billy shelf and it is hard open or close for kids grab the little tiny handle. Not well designed, not pretty
Nice doorsEmiliaAlue for money acceptable and looks very chic.
