Industrial Bookshelf - 70.87in Tall Metal X-Frame Bookcase (Brown 03)

Our industrial bookshelf is designed to provide five tiers of sturdy open storage for books and decor in living spaces. Whether you're displaying books, arranging decor, or organizing everyday items, this tall bookshelf combines engineered wood shelves with a black metal X-frame to help create functional storage with an industrial look.

Why People Keep Reaching For It

Five open tiers give books, files and framed photos somewhere to live without closing the room in, and the X-braced metal sides keep the whole thing rigid at nearly six feet tall. It reads as a piece of furniture rather than storage, which is why it works as easily in a living room as in an office.

Open Shelves That Stay Level

Each shelf is a thickened engineered board carried on a welded metal frame, so a full row of hardbacks sits flat instead of bowing in the middle. The open back keeps the shelves feeling light even when they are loaded.

An X-Frame You Notice

The crossed side panels are the reason this piece looks intentional. They break up the vertical run of shelves and let light through from either side, so a tall bookcase does not turn into a wall.

How to Use

1. Lay out the shelf boards and frame sections and match them to the parts list.
2. Build the two side frames first, then slot the shelf boards in from the bottom up.
3. Tighten every fixing once all five tiers are seated, so the frame pulls square.
4. Stand the bookcase against the wall and fit the included tip-over resistance device before loading it.
5. Load heavier books on the lower tiers and lighter decor higher up.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will it hold a full row of hardbacks?
Each shelf is rated to 50lb, which covers a packed row of books on every tier. Put the heaviest volumes on the lower shelves.

How tall is it really?
70.87in, just under six feet, on a footprint of 32.68in wide and 12.60in deep.

Does it need to be anchored?
Yes. A tip-over resistance device is included and should be fitted to the wall before you load the shelves, as with any tall bookcase.

Is the back open or panelled?
Open. That is what keeps a six-foot bookcase from feeling like a solid wall in a small room.
