Narrow Loft Bookcase in Steel and Oak

A tower of shelves for a narrow gap

The Narrow Loft Bookcase uses the construction of our Loft Bookcase in Steel and Oak in a slim format: two closed steel frames on edge and solid oak shelves between them. At 400 mm wide it fits beside a sofa, a door frame or a fireplace, where a full-width bookcase would not.

Standard size and made to measure

The standard tower is 400 mm wide, 300 mm deep and 1500 mm high with four shelves. Every tower is made to order, so you can also choose:

• another width, depth or height
• more shelves, or other shelf spacing
• a pair of towers for both sides of a window or a sofa

Materials and construction

• Side frames: rectangular steel profile 60 x 40 x 2 mm, welded closed
• Two rear tie bars, top and bottom, keep the frames square
• Shelves: solid oak, 30 mm, oiled, resting on welded brackets and screwed from below
• Adjustable feet for uneven floors

Finish

The steel is powder coated in one RAL colour of your choice; matt black (RAL 9005) as in the pictures is the house standard. Textured or metallic powder coats are options priced in a quotation. The oak is oiled, which brings out the grain and is easy to refresh years later.

Fixed to the wall

A tall shelving unit must be fixed to the wall. Two flat brackets are welded to the back of the top rail, and we supply anchors to suit the wall you name in your order: masonry, concrete or a timber stud wall. Fix it before you load the shelves, and load the lower shelves with the heaviest things.

What's included

• Welded steel frame with two side frames and rear tie bars
• Four solid oak shelves, oiled, with screws
• Two wall brackets and anchors for your wall type
