2. Support the bookcase with the desk

If the bookcase in your home is a floor standing bookcase, you can use a desk that is large enough in volume and weight to stand in front of the bookcase, which can prevent the bookcase from tipping down, and greatly reduce the probability of the bookcase falling down. If you want to read, you can also read on the desk, and it is very convenient to take books.

3. Add metal parts and fix them on the wall

In order to avoid the collapse of the bookcase, you can also add a metal piece on the wall to fix the bookcase on the wall, but this will cause certain damage to the wall. You can use metal pieces to fix the four corners of the bookcase on the wall, or add a safety belt. Try to succeed at one time, or there will be more holes in your wall.

4. Integrated storage bookcase

There are a lot of bookcases on the market today that store books on the top and store things below. The advantage of this bookcase is that the chassis below is relatively stable and it is not easy to pour. Besides, books on the top are relatively light, and heavy items on the bottom are heavier than on the top, so the bookcase will not tip over again. This bookcase has a large volume and is suitable for home use.

5. Use the latch to hold the bottom of the bookcases. If your home is a floor shelf, you can use several slope latches to hold the bottom of the bookcase. If you insert the latches, the bookcase will be difficult to move, greatly reducing the risk of the bookcase toppling. This method is suitable for friends who do not like trouble and are more convenient.

Now bookcase is more and more important in people’s families. When buying bookcase, you should choose a bookcase that you like and that suits you.
