Composite - Bookcases & Bookshelves - The Home Depot

Question 1

What are some popular bookshelf styles?

Accepted Answer

Choosing the perfect bookshelf depends on your style and needs! Ladder shelves add a modern, airy feel to smaller spaces. At the same time, larger, freestanding bookshelves offer ample storage for a large book collection, displaying decor, or even organizing office supplies. Check out our bookshelf ideas guide for inspiration on finding the style that complements your space!

Question 2

What are the benefits of different wood-tone bookcases?

Accepted Answer

Each wood tone creates a different look and feel for your space. We carry dark wood, light wood, and medium wood tones, so you can choose the finish that best matches your style and decor.

Question 3

Will a black bookshelf make my room look smaller?

Accepted Answer

A black bookshelf creates a striking contrast, especially against light walls. Pair it with light accessories to balance the look and prevent the room from feeling smaller.

Question 4

What's the difference between a bookcase with a closed back and an open back?

Accepted Answer

A bookcase with a closed back offers more support and stability, preventing items from falling off the back and concealing wall imperfections. An open-back bookcase allows you to display items against the wall color, creating visual interest while helping with electronic wire management and easy access to outlets. Consider an open-back bookcase if you want a light and airy look! We carry both closed back and open back options to match your preference.

Question 5

What features are available for composite bookcases & bookshelves?

Accepted Answer

We offer bookcase features such as solid wood, drawers, and photo display.

Question 6

Which bookcase orientation is better for storage in smaller spaces?

Accepted Answer

We carry both horizontal and vertical options, although vertical bookcases offer the best solution to make the most of your existing square footage. This is because they rise tall and slim to save floor space. They're also great for showcasing decorative items or a large book collection.
