Built in bookcase over floor outlets?

8 years ago

I have a dream of a wall of built-in bookcases in my livingroom, but the space they would go over has two electrical sockets... in the floor. What should I do? Is there a way to extend the sockets upward 6 inches and have them in the bottom of the bookcase? Or is that super not safe? I imagine it would be the same as extending a wall box through the back of a bookcase, only upward instead of outward...
