I will move this topic to the Vinyl Circle.

I think that IKEA might still have a storage rack that works for records? Not sure.

Here's a link to record storage at Mapleshade.

Ikea Kallax

That's the new model, I have the older one that looks the same, can't remember the name.  Works great, I'd advise a little reinforcement in the back, I've seen some pics of collapses.  And a few 1x2s gives a backing for the lps.

The old one is the Expedit.  I have two 4x2 Expedits that I glued together with construction adhesive when I assembled them knowing that they're a little flimsy.  I then leveled them with shims under the corners and they're as solid as a rock when packed totally full of LPs.

I use these. Very well built.

the Ikea are pretty popular but as stated previously they aren't super strong. i have a one cube kallax and it seems fairly sturdy, my guess is when people buy they big ones and fill them up its too much weight.

search etsy for "record storage" lots of cool options including being able to customize to your needs/aesthetics. i have bought several pieces of furniture thru various etsy sellers and never been let down.

I have several of these. They're not "furniture," but they're minimalistic enough to work in many environments, they're strong,  and they're only $21 each: https://www.amazon.com/Atlantic-96636247-Record-Crate-Shelf/dp/B077KZZGJV/ref=sr_1_5?crid=3M7HC99JRN7JT&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.xmDun1LB4VOS82xUK6ELyUroBVJMUNFiAe8EMJ4QOLfOgcD8ZzHqd-sZuLbqJlJLi5Ps54JQAXgPSqpvI-caxLPpaQn1uMMcFEVFcSnGTSDbmCFU0yD-JzQAfiO2aQtcBrX6vkFoyVpn6PVfRCVHR7qpMHB45Ico7wJxu7thiLh5zCYr1oupRwouNkyVeqbmlAJu9Xewp4VwVe-VGovR9jxPRo_6o2P_eBFCFUdyxmLM3W_kec-O9vQeXIcrx_rsTFgf8Yf8KN7hr5LtFmPFGIuY3aEepFfRa34oXJjhUKM.xwwFfHhaTdq0YUorDVOEBId_q5AWsBN1LViJLdMFJVM&dib_tag=se&keywords=atlantic+record+crate&qid=1714396319&sprefix=atlantic+record%2Caps%2C131&sr=8-5

I've got a about 3000 lp's in various sizes of these Mission style bookshelves.  They are now sold from Home Depot.

These are cool.

If you have basic tools and basic skills, you can make these:






Previously I used Kallax style racks, but aging eyes and beat up jackets make the spines too hard to read.  This style uses more space, but IMO a more enjoyable way to browse the vinyl.

$200 total cost to build both including legs, primer and paint.   The 4 bin one in first photo has no legs, I just placed it atop an old TV stand.  Flip rack on the left is store bought.

Wow this left side rack looks great and double as generic storage on bottom.

DIY is much cheaper, and holds tons more.  Not to mention much sturdier than the flimsy chip-board store bought one.

Sort of depends on how many records a person wants to store. For large collections I usually build my own cabinets from oak plywood. They will hold the weight and are sturdy enough I can climb up the face of the cabinet like a ladder.
Cost is roughly 150 per cabinet depending on how fancy a person wants to get with trim.

I purchase my racks from a place in CA called “Record Cabinets.” As the prices suggest, he does quality work …

We had a customized version of the Open-Close series made. Some doors hide electronics and assorted gizmos, others are drawers for vinyl storage.

I like the looks of these. I ordered the unfinished Oak for 300 LP's. I can stain it and finish it to match our oak floors and put it in my main floor office and add a shelf when needed or continue to put less used LP's in my basement storage area.

Edit to add; finished to match office furniture and assembled.

Good prices:
