Let’s take a look at the common bookcase size standards and bookcase design considerations.
Bookcase size standards
1. Common depth standards
Bookcases are used to store books, and ordinary books are basically A4 or B5 size, so only a depth of 30 cm is needed to store books, so the finished bookcases on the market are all made according to this size. And if it is a closed bookcase, because there is an extra door, the overall depth will be larger.
2. Height standard
The overall height of the bookcase is similar to that of a general finished wardrobe, which is about 220 cm. This height can efficiently utilize part of the space on the wall to achieve maximum storage capacity, and is also very convenient for access. Some people will also choose to customize a bookcase that reaches the top, like a built-in wardrobe. But if you want to get the highest books, you need to use a small ladder.
3. Width standard

Most of the common finished bookcases are in the range of 1.2 meters to 1.5 meters, but they can also be combined You can widen the bookcase in other ways, or directly customize a wider bookcase, as long as the room can fit it. However, it is also necessary to consider the load-bearing capacity of the laminate, especially furniture made of density board or particle board, which must have sufficient support density, otherwise the laminate will easily deform.
What should be paid attention to when designing a bookcase
1. Pay attention to the depth, thickness and height
The depth of the bookcase should be at most 30CM; the thickness of the bookcase needs to be within Between 30-40CM, this can ensure that the bookcase will not collapse after placing books and items inside; the height of the bookcase should be around 2.1M. If it is too high, it will be very troublesome to take out the books.
2. Pay attention to the internal and external dimensions
Before choosing a bookcase, you should decide the style of the bookcase based on the books you already have and the books you want to add in the future. If most of the books are 32-format books, there is no need to choose a bookcase with a height and thickness designed for large 16-format books, so that precious space will not be wasted.
