Vinyl Storage Options

Dude ...you are killing me....nice....very nice!

@finnegan Thanks.  I contacted Jay today.  He is offering a 20% discount for Father’s Day.  I am probably going to purchase a 96” version of his cabinet.  Any overflow will go into Kallax cubes that will be reinforced to some degree.

@dwette Wow!  Did you use a plywood/glue/screw approach similar to the ones mentioned in others posts?

@bslon Are your two rows of Kallax cubes reinforced too?

This group has shared really great pictures of their storage cabinets.

Thanks to all!

Generally in the shadows here, as much to learn and not much to add, but needing to deal with housing 1100 albums, had reviewed many options. While intending to conceal behind sliding doors, I nevertheless was looking for something aesthetically pleasing. The alternative I've come up with is a set of sleek rosewood file cabinets which can be easily modified to accommodate. 

The cabinets found are a standard 30" wide and 67" tall. They have four drawers with 2-door cabinets at the top. In order to accommodate album height, the cabinet doors were removed and the drawer tracks reset to increase the space between the drawers, with albums readily housed. The drawer width was ideal for two albums side by side, with forward facing covers-a personal preference-as opposed to end-on storage.

The standard depth is 25", so at 90" wide and 67" high, I have been able to house more than 1100 discs with easy access and identification and when drawers closed, a sleek, quality, rosewood face.

While I haven't needed as yet, at only 67" high, there is surely some useful space above.

@drlou77  glad I could be helpful. If you do order from Jay I don’t think you’ll be disappointed

Check out Sidetracked Workshop. I bought some of their stuff and they do quality work for a reasonable price. Nice looking stuff
