Many homeowners know the challenge of dealing with the empty wall around their TV, which often looks incomplete. A great solution for that large, unused space is to install built-in cabinets and shelves. However, custom cabinetry can be costly, running into thousands of dollars for a media center that fits your space. Enter the EKET line from IKEA, offering an ideal IKEA hack to create a DIY media cabinet without overspending. With a wide variety of cabinet options, the possibilities for a customized storage system are abundant. Whether you have an unusually long wall or a large room, EKET cabinets can help design a floating entertainment center with some built-in storage.<\/p>\n

Integrating the EKET line into your existing decor allows you to craft a fully customized media storage system. With choices like media stands, wall-mounted shelving, and glass cabinets, it’s a top pick for built-in storage. Compared to traditional media centers, the EKET system is highly affordable. For instance, a two-door EKET cabinet measuring 27 \u00bd inches wide costs $80, and depending on your wall length, you might need just two or three. Combine these with cube-style cabinets with solid doors ($30 each) or glass doors ($40 each), and you can create a modular storage system for under $1,000.<\/p>\n
