Floating Library Shelves

Different Types of Floating Library Shelves

Wall-Mounted Cantilever Shelving

In the world of book storage, these special shelves have been a trusted solution for many needs, including standard setups, high-density arrangements, and mobile carts.

Wall-mounted cantilever shelving is known for its adaptability and practicality. This type of shelving is designed to attach to walls effortlessly and comes with adjustable steel shelves. This means it can accommodate books and materials of different sizes, making sure every inch is put to good use.

But it is more than just a storage solution. These shelves bring added organization. Features like interlocking shelf end brackets and adjustable book support act as dividers. This helps group similar topics, ensuring that books remain upright and organized.

Additionally, because of their adjustable nature, these shelves are a cost-effective choice for those wanting a storage solution that can be adjusted as needed.

Cantilever Shelving can be ideal for academic, corporate, public, and legal libraries and many general office applications.

Metal Wall Mounted Bookshelf Kits

Metal wall-mounted floating shelf kits are a practical choice for those looking to use space best. They are crafted from strong metal, ensuring they can handle various items, not just books. The design allows for height adjustments. This means libraries can change them to their specific needs.

One of the key benefits of these shelves is the way they utilize wall space. They stretch from the floor to the ceiling, and we offer a range of sizes so businesses can select the right fit for their space. Users should have appropriate anchoring tools to fix them to the wall securely.

Beyond their functional benefits, the library wall shelving has a sleek design. The metal finish not only looks appealing but also resists damage over time. Our shelving arrives unassembled, so users need to put them together and mount them.

Wall Mounted Library Storage

Wall-mounted library storage adds style and function to spaces. These shelves are popular not just in libraries but also in many offices. With the clever design of strong wall-mounted bookshelves, they can be fixed to the wall without needing support from the ground.

These shelves can hold different items like books, newspapers, journals, multimedia, photos, and maps. They are designed to meet different needs.

They come in 30″ and 36″ widths allowing you to match many wall sizes. They also have different heights like 66″, 78″, 84″, and 90″, and if these heights do not fit, they can be changed to meet different needs.

One significant feature of these library wall shelves is that the shelves can be moved up or down easily by 1″. They also come in different colors, meaning they look good and work well in any office setting.

Benefits of Floating Library Shelves

Design & Aesthetics

One of the most striking benefits of floating shelves is their contribution to design and aesthetics. Unlike traditional shelving, hanging library shelves lack visible support. This gives them a simple and modern appeal.

This clear design creates an organized, airy atmosphere that can turn a cluttered room into an elegant space. The hidden mounting parts ensure no visible hardware, amplifying the feeling of space and elegance. Whether in a personal reading nook or a large public library, these shelves can truly improve the overall atmosphere.

Maximizing Space and Flexibility

In places where every inch is important, floating shelves can greatly benefit. Libraries, especially those with limited space, can benefit greatly from this design.

By using wall space well, these shelves offer more room for books and materials without extra floor space. This is especially helpful in spaces where building space is tight, allowing librarians to provide more without needing more space.

Flexibility in Configuration

Floating shelves are useful and offer a chance for creativity. Librarians can change their displays, ensuring that the shelves store and display materials well. Different heights can bring energy to a once-still wall, while different displays can catch the eye and attract visitors.

By mixing the shelves with things like digital screens or art pieces, a library can change from a storage place to an active center of learning and creativity. This design flexibility ensures the space stays new, inviting, and always changing. 

Multi-use Applications

While these shelves in a library are mainly for books, their use does not end there. They can securely hold files, pens, and various office essentials.

These shelves have two jobs in the back areas of libraries or in office spaces that focus on aesthetics. They improve the decor while offering good storage solutions. In short, floating library shelves are useful tools that can easily mix looks with use. Visit our online store to see our library storage products.
