And hallelujah at 35x35x35 cm roughly 13 7 inches each way the dimensions of the standard eket are pretty close to perfect for storing records.
Ikea eket vinyl records.
Eket is a versatile series of modular storage cabinets in different colors that can be stacked hung and combined endlessly.
I like the way record stores display their records on top covers facing forward so you can quickly flip through the records and find what you are looking for.
3 get modular with eket cabinets.
They are inexpensive look and work great but they have a limitation.
The shelves don t have doors though and if you like things to look more streamlined you ll love this hack.
Ikea has a new storage solution called the eket.
Ikea was careful to maintain the dimensions of kallax s cubby holes though they shrank the outer dimensions.
Drop your ideas and suggestions in the comments below.
Pretty nice alternative to the popular ikea kallax for storage.
Go small go big high low or crazy eket adapts to your style and needs.
But the vinyl factory reports that a more colourful variant called eket is upon us.
Here are a few warnings the eket cube is slightly more snug than the kallax or expedit which may be a little problematic for bulkier gatefolds and box sets.
It gets a bit sketchy when you have a super thick gatefold though.
Too good to be true.
Expedit was a dj s favourite both as storage and as a dj table.
Vinyl doors for shelves.
In any case records still fit the kallax perfectly.
I am looking to get a 2x2 unit and plan to put my record player on top of it my one concern with the eket is the boxes seems to be a tad smaller than the kallax so i worry that maybe larger record sleeves or box sets may not fit.
The cubicles fit a standard vinyl record with a standard jacket perfectly.
Spotted a great ikea vinyl record storage option that i haven t mentioned.
As for an alternative for the now discontinued ikea vinyl record frame americanflat sell 2 packs of a very similar black frame for vinyl.
Ikea s assorted ranges of shelves suitable for vinyl storage is well known and seemingly ever changing.
But still doable and the backing in the eket is nice to keep dust away.
I collect vinyl records and i use the ikea kallax as a vinyl record storage cabinet.
