Q&A(6)
Q: Are the legs flush with the outside width? I want to use two of these next to each other and not have a gap at the top.
A: Thank you for your question. The legs on the Tierney Mid Century Wide Bookcase and Storage Unit are slightly inset from the outer edges of the top, so they are not flush with the full width of the unit. The top surface itself runs the full width, which means that if you place two units directly next to each other, the tops will align without a gap. At the base, because the legs are inset, there will be a small open space between the legs of each unit. If you want a perfectly continuous look, push the units tightly together and secure them using furniture joining brackets or a small trim/cover strip across the seam. We also recommend anchoring each unit to the wall for safety. If you have any additional questions or need further assistance, please feel free to reach out — we're happy to help!

Q: Can the backing be left off to leave the shelves open?
A: Thank you for your interest in our Tierney Solid Hardwood Mid Century Wide Bookcase and Storage Unit. Although the unit can be assembled without the back panel, we recommend installing it as designed to maintain the structural strength and overall stability of the bookcase. The back panel provides crucial support that helps keep the shelves aligned and the frame securely in place over time. If you prefer a more open look and decide not to use the back panel, we suggest positioning the bookcase carefully and using it with caution to ensure safety. Please feel free to reach out if you have any additional questions—we’re here to help!

Q: Can you leave the backing off leaving the shelves open?
A: Thank you for your interest in our Draper Mid Century Wide Bookcase and Storage Unit. While it is technically possible to assemble the unit without attaching the back panel, we recommend using it for added stability and structural integrity. The back panel helps maintain the overall strength of the piece and ensures that the shelves remain properly aligned over time. If you choose to leave it off for an open-shelf look, please ensure the unit is placed securely and used with care. Let us know if you have any other questions—we’re happy to help!
