My large collection of LPs and 78s are shelved in custom made wall units. My records moved about 1/8" during the 1994 Northridge earthquake, a few miles from my then home. The cost is higher then EKET and KALLAX but superior. 3/4" thick melamine surfaced MDF (or is it high density fiberboard-I forgot) with 20" wide shelves, stacked 7 rows high, screwed into 2X6 studs in the walls. I use a step stool for the top shelf (I'm 5'11"). To house 17,000 LPs and 4,000 78s (half my collection) the cost in June, 2019 was $5,000 on 3 walls. I used my 1993 identical shelving from my former house in a shed and garage to store an additional 7,500 LPs.
Please share photos of your Vinyl cabinet/shelving
Just picked up this cool record cabinet. Mid Century. Looks custom built. Red glass front and back.
Top pops up on right side. Probably started life as a Hi-Fi console.
I bought some hairpin legs and strip LED lights for the interior.
Please share your unique record shelving/cabinets.

@donlduck1 Good point. I've a modest 1300+ of NM in record store style (and around 600 VG+/VG stored in crates) and it does take up space. |
