Good morning everyone, I recently used the Billy shelving system from IKEA in my living room and find it very flexible. Now I am considering how to use Billy in the bathroom as well. This raises the question: How can I adapt or protect the Billy shelves to withstand the higher humidity and occasional water splashes in the bathroom without damaging the furniture? What practical tips are there for installation, surface treatment, or accessories to make Billy not only functional but also durable in a bathroom environment? I look forward to your creative and proven solutions, including advice on moisture resistance, additional protective measures, and alternative mounting options. Thanks in advance!

Foam seals between the shelf and the wall prevent water from getting behind the Billy. That’s a great tip, thanks! Do I need to consider the material thickness, or is a simple foam spacer enough? And does the foam hold up well over time in a damp environment?

Or is its durability comparable to other furniture used in bathroom areas?
