Book Storage Kits
  • Application

    Our Metal Edge Boxes, available in many sizes, are perfect for storing your valued books and albums. We offer three of these boxes as kits that come with two polyethylene bags in slightly different dimensions.

    Please note that these are non-drop front boxes and all four corners are fastened with metal edge clamps which provide rigidity and high stacking strength.

    Dimensions reflect the interior box size. When measuring your books to find the appropriate size box be sure to leave extra room for your hands to fit inside to remove the object.

    If you don't see the size you need, look at all of our Metal Edge Box options. Onyx Portfolio Boxes would also work well for storing special books. #10-007 is 5-3/8 x 7-3/8 x 2'', smaller than any of the Metal Edge options.

    Tissue and additional poly bags can be ordered separately.

    Here is a formula to calculate the size of a bag for book storage. First measure the Width, Length, and Depth (thickness) of your book.

    Add the Width + Depth of book + 1 inch

    Add the Length + Depth of book + 1 inch

    Example: Book is 8 x 10 x 2 inch

    8 (width) + 2 (depth) + 1 = 11 inches

    10 (length) + 2 (depth) + 1 = 13 inches

    The flat bag should be at least: 11 x 13 inches so our 11 x 14 Poly Bag would work

    Larger is okay; you can fold in the extra material. Avoid using tape, it has a way of causing problems, and you are mainly protecting the book from dust and dirt.
