Fifteen inches wide and over six feet tall is the shape for a wall that has almost no width to spare. Beside a doorway, between two windows, or in the gap at the end of a run, a narrow tower claims space that a normal bookcase cannot use, and six tiers over 73.8 in is a surprising amount of shelving from that footprint. The depth is 11.8 in, which is enough for books to sit properly rather than overhanging the front edge, and that is worth checking on narrow units because many save space by making the shelves too shallow to be useful. Each tier carries 18.3 lb with an overall static capacity of 110 lb. A steel frame is what allows a unit this tall and narrow to stand securely, since the height-to-width ratio is well beyond what board construction alone would manage. Particleboard on steel brings the assembled weight to 29.1 lb. At this height and this narrow a base, the unit should be secured to the wall once positioned, which is standard for tall shelving and worth doing before it is loaded.
