How do you store a whole lotta LP's?

Here's IKEA shelves used for records:

These are custom record shelves:

I could be happy with either one ;-)

Muzikat - Sorry to take so long to respond. I don't use anything to keep the records from sliding back. Since I have the shelf against a wall, and I use 12" shelves, there's really no where for the record to go. On the other hand, the CD's would slip back. My solution was to have some 1x2's (I 'splurged' and spent the extra $10 for furniture quality oak that matched the look on the shelf best) cut to appropriate widths at Home Depot. I used poster tack to affix the bars to the shelves so that I could remove them if I ever decide to use the shelving for something besides CD's.

I finally ended up building mine from MDF. I don't like storing albums in a way that I have to read the spine to find an LP. I like to flip thru them and see the cover. I started out with one design but as I built it, it morphed into something else. It was suppose to be simple and cheap, but turned out costing a little shy of $200. It fits most of my 1200 LPs but I still have about a 100 that did not fit. Since I built it in a closet, there is no more room to make it bigger, but I am satisfied since the LPs are no longer strewn all over laying against the walls. It was a *lot* of work, so make sure you are prepared if you decide to do this. Good luck on your search.
