Ironside Tables and Configurations
Ironside suits players who prefer a metal gaming table with compatible accessories and options for changing the playing layout or table height.

Ironside 3×7 Extended Table
A longer configuration for extended game layouts and additional player space along the table.
Ironside 5×6 Combined Setup

For more about the six-sided model, visit the Ironside HEX guide. For rectangular layouts and conversion options, explore the Ironside system.
Kingswood: Wooden Gaming Tables for Everyday Living
Kingswood combines a wooden furniture appearance with a recessed play area. It is worth considering for dining rooms and shared spaces where the table remains part of everyday life.
Choose the size around the games you play regularly. A 3×5 layout takes up less room, while a 4×6 layout provides more playing space for larger boards and individual player areas.
Kingswood 3×5
A wooden gaming table for regular game nights and everyday dining with its matching tabletop cover.
Kingswood 4×6
More playing space for expansive boards, terrain, and games with larger individual player layouts.
Prefer integrated lighting? Explore the 3×5 LED Kingswood or 4×6 LED Kingswood. Compare the selected version’s specifications and included items.
Kingswood Edge: Full-Cover Top and Dual Accessory Rails
Kingswood Edge features an included full-cover tabletop and inner and outer accessory rails. Choose it if this cover style and accessory arrangement suit your gaming and dining setup.
Kingswood Edge 3×5
A wooden gaming and dining table with a full-cover top and two accessory rail positions.
Kingswood Edge 4×6
A larger Edge configuration for broad game layouts, with the same full-cover design and dual rails.
Both sizes offer a similar feature direction; the main choice is how much playing area and floor space your room can accommodate. Allow additional room for accessories mounted outside the frame.
Kingswood Coffee Table: A Smaller Wooden Living-Room Setup
For a lower wooden table with a smaller footprint, explore the Kingswood Coffee Table. Its included cover allows the recessed play area to become an everyday coffee-table surface.
Kingswood Coffee Table
A recessed wooden gaming coffee table with a tabletop cover, gaming mat, and four cup holders.
Choose Kingswood Coffee Table if you prefer wooden furniture and a smaller playing footprint. Choose Ironside Coffee Table if you want a larger play area and compatibility with Ironside 2.0 accessories.
Ironside Coffee Table has the same floor footprint as the full-height Ironside 2.0. For both coffee-table models, check how the height works with your sofa and how comfortably players can reach the playing area.
See the gaming coffee table comparison for more details.
Choose the Right Table Size
Compare your complete game layout with the internal playing area. Include the main board, individual player boards, card rows, token supplies, and any reference materials you keep on the table.
Then compare the overall furniture dimensions with your room. Leave space for chairs, comfortable movement, and externally mounted accessories.
- 3×5 configurations: A starting point when your regular games fit within this playing area and you want to preserve more room around the table.
- 4×6 configurations: More playing space for broad layouts, terrain, and individual player areas.
- Extended Ironside configurations: Options for increasing length or width with the required compatible components.
- Coffee tables: Lower seating arrangements with different footprints; compare height as well as playing area.
- HEX: A shaped playing area that should be checked against the actual layout of your games.
Player count alone does not determine the right size. Read How to Choose the Right Board Game Table Size for Your Room for a practical measuring guide.
Which Board Game Storage System Fits Your Collection?
Choose storage around your box sizes, available floor space, and preferred way of accessing games. Some systems are designed to expand across a room, while others use vertical space or work within furniture you already own.
| System | Choose It For | Main Configuration Choice |
|---|---|---|
| BoxThrone | Adjustable shelving for a growing game library. | Frame layout, shelf quantities, and shelf widths. |
| GamePillar | Vertical storage with a compact floor footprint. | Short or tall model and shelf spacing. |
| GameKeep | Larger boxes, mixed collections, and display space. | Unit height, shelf dimensions, and horizontal expansion. |
| GameCart | Moving an organized collection between play areas. | Access around the cart, shelf limits, and movement routes. |
| LAX RAX | Adding individual game slots to compatible KALLAX shelving. | Existing shelf compatibility and insert quantities. |
BoxThrone: For a Growing Collection
BoxThrone uses adjustable shelves to organize games individually and offers modular configurations for different collection sizes.

Best fit: Collectors who want accessible shelving with compatible expansion options.
GamePillar: For Corners and Vertical Storage
GamePillar concentrates storage vertically and is worth considering for corners or narrow areas beside your gaming furniture.
Choose a short or tall version according to available height and the boxes you want to store. Additional independent towers can provide more storage as your collection grows.
Best fit: Players who want a compact floor footprint and vertical access to their games.
GameKeep: For Larger Boxes and Mixed Collections
GameKeep offers adjustable shelving for collections that include larger boxes, expansions, and display items.
The base unit is approximately 47.24″ wide and 15.75″ deep. Short and tall versions are approximately 23.62″ and 35.43″ high. Compatible extensions allow the system to grow horizontally.
Best fit: Collectors who prefer a broader shelving layout for mixed box sizes. Check shelf dimensions and load limits; extension units require the appropriate base setup.
GameCart: For Flexible Play Spaces
GameCart combines adjustable shelves with wheels so an organized collection can move between suitable play areas. Its four-sided layout provides access from multiple directions.
Best fit: Rooms where moving games between locations is part of the routine. Allow access around the cart and follow the loading and wheel-lock instructions.
LAX RAX: For Existing KALLAX Shelving
LAX RAX creates individual horizontal game slots within compatible IKEA KALLAX shelving, helping you reach games without moving an entire stack.
Best fit: Players who already own compatible shelving and want to improve its organization. Choose the insert quantity around the compartments you plan to use.
Explore LAX RAX through the storage system comparison.
Complete Your Setup With Compatible Accessories
Select accessories around the way you use your table or storage system.
- Gaming and dining: Choose a matching tabletop cover and a suitable place to store the panels during play.
- Card-heavy games: Compatible card holders and trays help organize personal playing areas.
- RPG sessions: Dice trays and component holders can separate individual supplies from the central map.
- Drinks beside the game: Compatible cup holders keep cups away from the main playing surface.
- Growing collections: Additional shelves or supported extensions can adapt an existing storage setup.
Match accessories to the exact product model. Ironside Coffee Table shares accessory compatibility with Ironside 2.0, but accessories should not be assumed to fit every BoxKing table family.
Included items vary by configuration. For example, both coffee tables include a gaming mat, while their cover and cup-holder inclusions differ.
Review compatible options through the relevant table page or storage page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Which Ironside setup should I choose?
Start with Ironside 2.0 if its standard playing area fits your games. Explore the extension kit for more length, a two-table connection for more width, or compatible height-conversion parts for a different seating arrangement. Ironside HEX is a separate fixed-size design.
What is the difference between Kingswood and Kingswood Edge?
Both offer wooden gaming-table options in 3×5 and 4×6 sizes. Kingswood Edge includes a full-cover tabletop and inner and outer accessory rails. Standard Kingswood configurations vary in included covers and available features.
Which coffee table has the smaller footprint?
Kingswood Coffee Table measures 48″ × 33.46″ overall, compared with 63.6″ × 40.8″ for Ironside Coffee Table. Kingswood includes a cover, mat, and four cup holders. Ironside provides a larger play area and compatibility with Ironside 2.0 accessories.
Does an extension or connector kit include the table?
No. These accessory kits require compatible base tables. A longer Ironside setup needs the table and extension kit; a combined setup needs two tables and the compatible connector components.
Should I choose a 3×5 or 4×6 wooden table?
Choose according to your complete game layout and available room space. A 4×6 table offers more playing area, while a 3×5 model leaves more floor space around the furniture. Account for individual player areas and comfortable reach.
Which storage system suits limited floor space?
GamePillar is a useful starting point when vertical storage suits the room. If you already own compatible KALLAX shelving, LAX RAX can improve access within your existing furniture.
Which storage system can grow with my collection?
BoxThrone offers modular shelving configurations and compatible expansion parts. GameKeep provides horizontal expansion options. Choose around your box dimensions, preferred layout, and available space.
Are tabletop covers and accessories always included?
No. Inclusions depend on the model and configuration. Check the selected product’s included-items list for the cover, gaming mat, cup holders, and other accessories. Images may show optional products.
