To shield our balconies from weather, wind and exhaust fumes, it usually isn’t enough with the protection from the neighbour above. That’s why the team decided to create a cover for HYLLIS. They made it transparent and added ventilation holes. It makes it possible to use the cover and the shelf as a greenhouse.
Practical storage solution in galvanised steel for small spaces indoors or outdoors. Just as suitable on the balcony as in the hallway, kitchen or bathroom. Sturdy, lightweight and approved for wet areas.

sturdyFrederilkexcellent outdoor shelves. tighten screws fully at some point.
I bought two. Just asLorraineI bought two. Just as I expected. Easy to keep clean and no sharp edges.
Good value, good qualityMichaelAlthough this appears lightweight and flexible when first assembled, once in use it does become much more solid and sturdy. I also bought 5 of the smaller model with plastic covers against dust, which are amazing value for money. Now I am just waiting for the plastic covers for this taller model to come back into stock. Really good storage, protected against dust when the cover is included, and certainly good value for money.

Story
HYLLIS creates room for life on the balcony
Some of us live smaller than we’d like. It often means a constant hunt for more space. So why not try and use the space we have in smarter ways? This was something our product developers wanted to help out with when they created a small version of HYLLIS – a shelf that fits almost anywhere – and can be used if you want to grow your own herbs and small plants.
Philip Dilé, one of the members in the development team behind HYLLIS, live in an apartment with balcony in southern Sweden. “My balcony is filled with stuff. I’d like to use it for something other than storage, and I think many of our customers feel the same way.”
Cover from the elements
Become a balcony farmer
“I grow herbs myself. It saves money and it’s fun to see life sprout on your own balcony. I think people who live in cities should be able to grow small plants and herbs too, even if they don’t have access to a garden,” says Philip. With HYLLIS shelf and cover they can do it in a small scale and use the balcony for more things than storing – a greener life and a smarter use of space at home.
Material
What is steel?
Steel has unique characteristics when it is stretched and shaped since it remains strong. It provides strength to everything from skyscrapers and cars to bed frames and outdoor furniture. The steel industry is moving in the direction of more energy-efficient production and stronger steel qualities. It doesn’t lose any of its properties when recycled and today steel is one of the most recycled materials in the world.
