International Furniture Direct Tuxedo Bookcase

No, the eight shelves on this bookcase are fixed in place. This design choice contributes to the unit's overall structural stability and clean, uniform look.

At 72.5 inches tall, this bookcase is designed to fit comfortably in most standard rooms with 8-foot ceilings. We recommend measuring your specific wall space to ensure you have clearance above the unit for visual balance.

Yes, thanks to the solid wood construction and fixed shelf design, this unit is quite sturdy. However, as with any tall shelving unit, we strongly recommend using the included wall-anchoring kit to ensure safety and prevent tipping.
