A different kind of vinyl accessory — these record backstoppers sit at the rear of your Kallax or Expedit shelf cubby, preventing LP sleeves from slipping behind the unit or falling backwards as your collection thins out.
An essential partner product for any shelf-based collection. Simple to install, satisfying to use, and incredibly practical — especially for collectors who regularly rotate stock or add new records.
Technical notes
The backstop will need assembling – it’s a simple design consisting of just 5 parts.
Glue maybe needed to keep the 5 parts together – we recommend either two-part epoxy or quality wood PVA glue. We don’t supply this but can be purchased from any hardware store.
We can send these out pre-made – but there would be an additional cost – contact us if this is something you would need
Each backstop comes with 3 double-sided sticky tabs to keep the stopper in place.
Our backstoppers (backspacers) are the perfect accessory to our record dividers

Jon –
★★★★★ (5/5) – This is my second order of these backstoppers. These work so well I had to have more for my expanded shelving. Once again, exactly as described, packaged well and shipped quickly! A+++ Thank you!
Craig –
★★★★★ (5/5) – They fit very snugly into my kallax and stop the records pushing back through the shelves. I might paint them as they’re a bit visible on shelves which aren’t filled (or just buy more records).
Amberly –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Bought these for my husband’s now extensive record collection. He enjoyed putting them together and they fit perfectly inside his Kallax shelves. His record collection has never looked so organized!!
Jason –
★★★★☆ (4/5) – CriCut MDF that fits together well. You have to put them together and glue each joint, took about an hour all-in for eight. I wasn’t expecting to break out the craft tools but the gorilla glue gun worked well. They work nicely as record stoppers in the kallax, as I was worried about edge damage with the flat variety. Everything displays flush to the front now and is neat and tidy. No more records hanging out of the back, success in the end.

Mark –
★★★★★ (5/5) – These are brilliant and do the job to perfection. Would be good to see an option where the correct glue is supplied. And also one that fits a Kallax that has shelf dividers fitted, other than these little niggles they are perfect.
Matt –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Fantastic solution to help stop my records from getting pushed off the back of my Kallax units. Great design, made well, and delivered quickly. Highly recommended!

Mark –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Best design I’ve see for these backspacers. One of the corner pieces didn’t fit so I was happy they included an extra one in the package.
Corrie –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Before I get to the actual item (which is fab!) I want to rave about Liz’s absolutely exceptional Customer Service! Not only was she happy to make these up for me but went above and beyond when we encountered a minor hiccup – fantastic!! The actual backstops are fabulous, great quality and came with plenty of sticky pads. You will see from my photo, they fit the Kallax units perfectly and are not just for vinyl! They have gone behind my extensive collection of 12×12 paper pads and custom made mdf units so that they are all aligned/can’t push back. I will definitely be returning to this Etsy shop, a very happy Customer
Aubree –
★★★☆☆ (3/5) – Did not fit together without the use of wood glue, would not stay standing and did not fit snuggly into Kallax. Ended up in the trash.

Mark –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Excellent item exactly as described. A simple but really well executed solution. Simple to fit and works perfectly. Many thanks!
Martin –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Taken me a little while to get round to reviewing these as I wanted to wait until I had finished painting my Kallax before I could try them out. These are fantastic, and really make a good way of stopping your records from working their way to the back of your Kallax unit. Elizabeth was even kind enough to make them up for me, which ordinarily I would have been happy to do but having just moved house, could do with one less thing to do! Fantastic product, works perfectly, will definitely order more as my record collection expands.
John –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Great Quality Item. Exactly What I Was Looking For. These Back Spacers Exceeded My Expectations. Just Added Some Two-Part Epoxy Making Them Even Stronger. Thanks!
Owen –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Great quality! No complaints. Thanks for the product.
Callum –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Brilliant product, fits well into the IKEA kallax unit. Very happy with the product only thing, I had a problem with was some of the holes were very tight so had to use a lot of force. Besides that can’t fault it.

★★★★★ (5/5) – Excellent service and product. Very fast response to my question
Emma –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Great item, record collection now neatly lined up along the front of the shelves.
Ryan –
★★★★★ (5/5) – Would recommend using wood glue to secure the joints, but it works better than the flat sticks that I had at the back of the stands. I used this with the Target Brand record shelving, so the records did stick out a little bit as compared to using it with the kallax shelf. Still, very happy with the results.
