Anyone know of similar sized shelving?

[Ramen]

This shelf measures 11.61"D x 23.58"W x 57.4"H which is perfect for my needs. The measurements are EXACTLY what I need, I can't have any bigger or smaller. The only thing I worry about is stability of the shelf and would like more weight capacity. The capacity of this one is 70lbs, somewhere around 100lbs+ would be ideal. Anybody know of a similar kind of unit with these dimensions? What are your guy's thoughts on this kind of shelf?

If you are crafty enough, you can just build one to you exact needs with particale board that's sealed. Probably gonna be your best case cause it'll be tricky finding an exact match here. You can also get a edge kit that will glue to the fronts or sides when you cut to hide the inner board. Darkden uses it and seems to hold up pretty darn well.

Lord no I would not trust my precious babies on a turn tube particle board shelf

Not far off from your dimensions, smaller but not larger... And $25 where I am. 55lbs per tier

Just checked and looks like they only have these in silver, I am looking for black. If anyone else has suggestions, please let me know!

Think I found a black shelf guys, 30lbs per shelf. Really hope this works out!

Gutted to say that the shelf situation did not work out. This was the Sweetcrispy 23.62"D x 11.81"W x 62.2"H with a capacity of 30lbs per shelf. In the ad, is says the height between shelves was 13" but this was not the case. This was not the measurement for the empty space between the shelving, but the space between the top of the shelf to the bottom. The actual measurement for the empty space is 11.8". This config will not fit the Exo Terra 8" x 8" x 12" since the 12" is not really accurate, it's 12.5/8". I am sadly returning this one today.

I did find a new one called the Caphaus 23.6"D x 11.8"W x 62.2"H with an extra support bracket making the capacity per shelf 60lbs. I reached out to the manufacturer, and they claim it's 13.38" between the top of the shelf to the bottom, and 12.79" of empty space between shelves, which cuts it close to fitting the Exo Terras. I even am starting to believe that it's the same company as above, with an extra support bracket and the exact same dimensions. The company even took a picture down from the ad stating 13.38" in-between the shelves after my inquiry so my belief is even stronger now. Sadly, no free returns on this item so the search continues.

As I am on my way to UPS to return the shelf, I had a thought. What if I drill my own holes on the shelf to allow space for the enclosures? I quickly text my girlfriend's father to meet me after work so we can try and figure this project out together. He is a handy man and was down for the task.

After around 45 minutes of measuring and drilling, we were able to add 1.5" to each shelf. It now fits the Exo Terra 8" x 8" x 12" perfectly. We allowed a good amount of space for airflow, and since I have tops with tons of ventilation, I think this will work out great. The shelf is very sturdy and shows no sign of leaning at all. In the picture, I just put 2 tanks up there as I didn't feel like lugging the others from downstairs yet. Please let me know what you guys think! Very pleased with this project and probably will do a few more.
