Spotted a great ikea vinyl record storage option that i haven t mentioned.
Ikea eket vinyl records.
Go small go big high low or crazy eket adapts to your style and needs.
They are inexpensive look and work great but they have a limitation.
3 get modular with eket cabinets.
Ikea was careful to maintain the dimensions of kallax s cubby holes though they shrank the outer dimensions.
Eket is a versatile series of modular storage cabinets in different colors that can be stacked hung and combined endlessly.
The shelves don t have doors though and if you like things to look more streamlined you ll love this hack.
But the vinyl factory reports that a more colourful variant called eket is upon us.
Pretty nice alternative to the popular ikea kallax for storage.
As for an alternative for the now discontinued ikea vinyl record frame americanflat sell 2 packs of a very similar black frame for vinyl.
In any case records still fit the kallax perfectly.
Here are a few warnings the eket cube is slightly more snug than the kallax or expedit which may be a little problematic for bulkier gatefolds and box sets.
Ikea s assorted ranges of shelves suitable for vinyl storage is well known and seemingly ever changing.
Too good to be true.
Vinyl doors for shelves.
Wondering if anyone has experience with both the kallax and eket ikea shelves and can help me decide which to get.
This was replaced by kallax and then supplemented by the more upmarket nornäs.
And hallelujah at 35x35x35 cm roughly 13 7 inches each way the dimensions of the standard eket are pretty close to perfect for storing records.
Expedit was a dj s favourite both as storage and as a dj table.

Display or hide your things or both.
It gets a bit sketchy when you have a super thick gatefold though.
I collect vinyl records and i use the ikea kallax as a vinyl record storage cabinet.
I am looking to get a 2x2 unit and plan to put my record player on top of it my one concern with the eket is the boxes seems to be a tad smaller than the kallax so i worry that maybe larger record sleeves or box sets may not fit.
But still doable and the backing in the eket is nice to keep dust away.
