Box or basket for IKEA Kallax shelf with door

Hello, I am looking for a box or a basket that fits into the Ikea Kallax shelf. Specifically, also when a door is mounted on the compartment. Does anyone have ideas? The basket does not necessarily have to be from IKEA. Thanks!!

Maybe take a look at new swedish design, maybe they have something?!

I once got seagrass baskets at a furniture store, which I placed into the Kallax. There is actually quite a lot of choice there. However, I don't have doors on it, and it was important to me that the baskets look good. Is there a glass door on it or is it opaque? If it is opaque, it basically doesn't matter what the box looks like. You can surely also find something on the internet, maybe take measurements beforehand.

Do you have measurements? So width without the hinge and height? Then just start googling. At 30x30 minus the hinge, DinA4 should fit. And then an estimated 12cm height. You can compare that well at A** or elsewhere. Ikea has the white ones with a hole in the front. Those should fit too.

Hi,

if you are looking for a box or a basket for your Kalax shelf, keep in mind that some depth is lost due to the doors. Many standard baskets or inserts often no longer fit properly, especially if they have fixed handles or hard edges.

Flexible boxes made of felt or fabric without fixed handles are best suited. They are easier to insert and nothing gets stuck. It is important that you measure the internal dimensions after installing the door – usually about 33x33 cm, but this can vary depending on the Kalax version, so it's better to measure exactly.

Hello,

from the manufacturer's perspective, another crucial point: The Kallax doors from Ikea also differ slightly in depth and suspension depending on the production year and series. Therefore, every Kallax shelf, even if it looks identical, should really be measured down to the millimeter with baskets before purchase. Those who value long durability are best off choosing boxes with reinforced bottoms. This helps when the shelf is used frequently and the basket is pulled out often. In terms of color, a calm coordination is recommended for Kallax; otherwise, the shelf with door and basket quickly appears overloaded or restless.

One more detail: Those who are very meticulous pay attention to cleaning – felt can attract dust, fine fabrics tend to collect lint, especially on white Kallax shelves. Those who really want to fully utilize the storage space can find manufacturers online who deliver custom-made products based on their own sketches – admittedly more expensive than standard goods, but the shelf always looks tailor-made.
