Elevate your billy!KathyReplaced original wood shelves with several glass shelves to gain additional space for taller collectables. Shelves are sturdy and well supported. Installed before adding doors. I would recommend this product. Glass shelving takes the billy to another level for displaying items.
Adding to a setDarcieA glass shelf is perfect for displaying my husband's shell collection. We have the shelving unit, so adding this shelf was a breeze!
Very good as a substitute to those provided shelves and great for displaying porcelain or crystalAlinaGood
Great shelf replacement KarenWe inherited a bookcase with one missing shelf. Hooray for these individually sold shelves!
Misleading LaseannaIn the description, it says that the mounting brackets/hardware (pegs to put it up) are included, but they are not. They even sent me a replacement which did not include them as well. So I just have shelves and no way to put them up.
Billy Book ShelfDeniseGreat Product, very easy to put together (10-15 mins) without help. The measurements are perfect for small spaces. The whith of the unit is only 11in. and doesn't take up space. I used them for clothes in my small closet instead of books. My clothes are so organized now, I love it. Excellent solution for space saving. They are a little pricey but worked for what I needed. I really wanted the black color but the cost was (more) not sure why. I had to buy 6 units for my space so I went with the white to keep the cost down. There is a drawer unit that can be purched $$ separately that goes with the book shelf as well ( definitely a bonus but costly) I purchased 4 drawers, they are nice and deep. I have recommended this product to many friends and family 🧡
Billy Shelving TammyI added additional shelving to my Billy so I can store my fat quarters for quilting. It’s perfect in size and the extra shelving makes storing fabric a breeze.
Shelves are nice but mounting hardware not so muchAngelaThese are nice shelves, but the mountain hardware is attached to bookcase in a way that makes it impossible to install in a Billy/Oxberg bookcase that is already completely assembled. I finished putting my Billy bookcase together with the added Oxberg doors only to find out that the doors cannot already be in place if you want to install these shelves. And if you decide at a later time that you need the shelves moved, you will have to remove the doors in order to do so. Glass shelf = A. Mounting Hardware: F
Added to my Billy Cabinets DuaneUse these to replace the solid wood shelves in Billy Cabinets. Allows light transmission to lower shelves.
Loved my Billy!GiancarloNice functional Bookshelf, easy to build and sturdy enough. Does it's duty to it's full potential.
Glass is great!Anonymous reviewerBilli glass shelves are great! The glass shelf is thinner (if your books are just a *bit* too big), and never, ever sag. Also, for high and low shelves, Glass shelving is wonderful for display items too (LEGO, anyone?).
Nice way to get more spaceRonaldThe finish great. It matches the other ones.
Extra Billy shelf +++KarenExtra shelves are as good as the book case!
Substitute for birchBobbyI have 7 or 8 birch bookshelves, and can't find extra shelves.
Billy shelvesMirandaThese are great!! It gives the bookcase a lot of versatility compared to their bookcases. I love it!
Billy works in so many waysJamesThe glass shelf for the Billy bookcase is great. It changes the look of the bookcase and can make it into a display case if you want to.
Perfect for my Billy bookcase ErnestinaI love these shelves
They give a stylish look to the upper shelves in my Billy. Note that if you have glass doors you have to remove the doors to place the shelves so you don’t scratch up your Billy
Great option but pricey TracieI love having the ability to add on & customize my Billy Bookshelves but the price of the add on shelves is too expensive in my opinion. I purchased 3 extra shelves and it was half of what I paid for 1 bookshelf and the bookshelf comes with 5 shelves.🤔 In addition, I do notice the quality of the product has changed. Hardware is not as sturdy and some parts have gone from metal to plastic. Assembly is always a breeze and everything always lines up!
Sturdy shelfTedA good quality shelf that runs true to size.
Perfect sizeManuelaThe deep of the bookcase is perfect for small spaces.

Material
What is glass?
Glass is mainly made of sand, soda, and lime melted at a high temperature. Tempering or various additives gives you extra-strong and impact-resistant glass that in some cases can be taken straight from freezer to oven without cracking. A big benefit is how glass can be recycled over and over without the quality deteriorating. Also, a lot less energy is needed to melt recycled glass compared to new raw materials. Our goal is to eventually use only recycled glass in our range.
