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.

Had some problem this timeChungHad some problem this time assembling it. The holes on the rack slates do not fit properly to the holes on the rack bars. I bought hyllis a few years ago. It didn't have this problem.
This is my fifth HyllisTayThis is my fifth Hyllis purchase. Used for plant display. Good value for money
HYLLISThe HYLLIS shelf from IKEA is a fantastic addition to any space. It's sturdy, stylish, and offers great value for the price. However, the installation process is quite challenging and requires a lot of patience.

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.
