Things to Know Before Buying Bookshelves

At Pepperfry, we want you to make well-informed choices before purchasing bookshelves. Here are some helpful aspects to consider: 

• Measure the Room Dimensions 

We advise first measuring your room's height, width, and usable floor area. This gives clarity on suitable bookshelf sizes and styles -compact wall units for smaller rooms or expansive floor-to-ceiling cases for larger, open spaces. Keep realistic room proportions in mind. 

• Analyse Storage Needs 

Determine what you intend to store among books, collectables, or utility items. This helps finalise the required shelf capacity. Also, consider weights - delicate decorative items differ from heavy encyclopaedia sets. Sturdier wooden shelves may be needed sometimes. Planned usage is key. 

• Mind the Material 

We offer bookcases in wood, metal, tempered glass, plastic, etc. Wood types like Sheesham and mango wood lend a luxe feel while being termite-resistant. Contemporary homes can consider glass-door units for openness or modular metal cubes for flexibility. Ensure the material aligns with existing furnishings. 

• Read Customer Reviews 

Check out what existing customers say in reviews about ease of assembly, build quality or visual appeal. This offers realistic insights into the product's on-ground performance beyond catalogue descriptions and specifications. Customer experiences add immense value for new buyers like yourself.

Tips for Maintaining Your Bookshelves

• Bookshelf cleaning is key. Dust bookshelves regularly using a dry cloth or vacuum with a brush attachment to prevent buildup and keep furniture and books looking their best.

• Be mindful of the bookshelf's placement in the room. Keep it away from direct sunlight to prevent the wood finish and book covers/pages from fading over time.
• Position away from excessive moisture and heat sources like radiators to avoid warping of shelves and stored books.
• Check the shelf's stability and integrity regularly. Look for loose joints or faulty alignments and remedy them promptly.
• Consider applying wood polish/treatment periodically to condition the bookshelf wood and enhance its durability over the years with continued use.
• If planning to store valuable collectables, choose enclosed book racks with glass doors to limit dust access while displaying items.
