Folding bookcases are a creation very different than the typical type of custom bookcase or built-in bookcase. While rigid, "square" bookcases have been fashioned by craftsmen for centuries, it's only
in the 20th and 21st centures that folding bookcases have become viable and popular.
A usual folding bookcase has several shelves, and an informal look, making it suitable mostly for portions of the home that are not meant to have a formal look. Most folding bookcases will have hardware that allows easy folding, and catches or other devices to keep books from slipping or falling out the back. Asheville Bookcases, however, uses its energies to provide the very best fully framed, non-folding solid wood bookcases, rather than folding.
