I feel like an IKEA God right now.


Looks good to me, though.I have just realised that you wouldn’t be able to use the half panel/half glass doors as the section with the two hinge positions, that you’d need, is on the panel half.Bit of a disappointing response from IKEA to my Facebook post:Hi Steve, I am sorry that we don’t sell any OXBERG glass doors, 40 x 97cm.
Has anybody ever tried that? (Shame I can’t post pictures on this thread).I have had a bit of correspondence with Ikea over this issue.

Why is there no Oxberg glass door for the half-height (41 3/4 “) Billys?

I measured it and it should be possible.I have successfully completed my sister’s Billy bookcase with the 4 cutdown Oxberg glass doors and, I can honestly say, it looks significantly better than the unit I saw at Ikea with the Morliden doors.
