What Is Custom Shelving?
Mr. Handyman of Greater Portland has a team of world-class carpenters who can work with you to build a personalized set of custom wall shelves or bookshelves. We can turn your office into a veritable library or add shelves that fit your living room’s existing design. Instead of choosing from a series of premade bookcases, we can design one to meet your needs perfectly. This gives you complete control over the final appearance of your shelving.
The Different Types of Bookcases
When you are thinking about installing a customized bookcase, you should still consider some of the tried-and-true styles. There are many different styles and arrangements for bookshelves. We can help you recreate any of the following styles:
- Standard bookcases
- Decorative bookcases
- Barrister bookcases
- Cube bookcases
- Ladder and leaning bookcases
- Library bookcases
- Modular bookcases
- Corner bookcases
What to Consider When Designing Your Own Bookcase
Mr. Handyman of Greater Portland will walk you through the entire process of planning and building your bookcases and shelving. While building a bookcase may seem simple, there is much more to think about than you might realize. Some of the things to consider while planning the custom-built bookcase of your dreams include the following:
- Material – The material your bookcase is made from will dictate many things, such as the appearance and the load capacity. We can build bookcases from many different materials and many different colors.
- Size and Shape – The size and shape of your custom-built bookshelf are entirely up to you. How tall do you want it to be? How wide do you want each shelving unit to be? It’s all up to you!
- Design – It’s crucial to determine your desired aesthetic ahead of time. Whether you want a rustic-looking bookshelf or something with a more contemporary flair, we can help you make it happen.
