Types of Wine Racks We Offer

We offer several types of wine racks to fit different spaces, styles, and storage needs. Each type provides unique ways to store your bottles securely and with easy access.

Wall-Mounted Wine Racks


Wall-mounted wine racks save floor space by attaching directly to the wall. They come in various designs, including horizontal slots, diamond shapes, or individual bottle holders.


These racks are great for smaller areas or places where you want wine displayed as part of your décor. The racks keep bottles at an angle, which helps keep the cork moist.


Installation needs to be on a strong wall to hold the weight. We customize the size and finish to match your room’s style and ensure your bottles are safe.

Freestanding Wine Racks


Freestanding wine racks offer flexible placement since they can be moved easily. They vary from small countertop units to large floor-standing cabinets.


These racks often include additional features like built-in cabinets or glass doors to protect bottles. They are perfect if you want a dedicated wine display or storage area.


We design freestanding racks to fit your space and bottle count. Materials and finishes can be tailored to blend with your furniture or stand out as a focal point.

Modular Wine Rack Systems



Modular systems are made from individual units that connect to form a custom layout. They adapt easily as your wine collection grows.


These racks provide versatility because you can rearrange or add sections anytime. They also allow for mixing different storage styles, like racks for standard bottles and storage for magnums.


Our modular designs use high-quality wood or metal, combining durability with elegant design. We help you plan the best combination for your cellar or living space.

Our Storage and Preservation Solutions

We focus on creating storage that protects wine while keeping it easy to access. Our designs control temperature, manage humidity, and include security features to keep collections safe and in the best condition possible.

Climate Control Integration



Maintaining the right temperature is essential for preserving wine quality. We integrate climate control systems directly into our cabinetry to keep wines at a steady temperature between 55°F and 58°F. This range slows aging and prevents spoilage.


Our systems use insulated panels and sealed doors to reduce temperature fluctuations. We also allow for different zones within one cellar, so reds and whites can be stored at their ideal temperatures separately. This precise control extends the lifespan of your wine collection.

Humidity Management


Proper humidity prevents corks from drying out and protects labels from damage. We build humidity control into our wine racks and cabinetry, keeping levels between 60% and 70%. This range balances moisture without encouraging mold growth.


Our designs include ventilation systems and moisture barriers. We also provide monitors to track humidity in real time. This helps us ensure each bottle is stored in its best environment, preserving its value and taste.

Wine Security Features



Securing valuable wine is a priority in our custom cabinets. We provide options such as lockable doors, reinforced glass, and alarm-ready designs to protect collections from theft and damage.


We use sturdy materials and hidden hinges to enhance security without sacrificing style. Our goal is to offer peace of mind while maintaining easy access for authorized users. Security features can be customized to suit each collector’s needs.

Our Wine Cellar Cabinetry Features

Material Selection


We use only premium materials to build wine cellar cabinets that last. Our common choices include solid hardwoods like oak, cherry, and mahogany. These woods resist moisture and temperature changes better than softer woods.


Metal components, like hinges and handles, are made from stainless steel or brass to prevent rusting. We also use moisture-resistant plywood for cabinet backs and shelves, which adds strength without warping.


Each material is chosen to protect your wine collection and keep the cabinetry looking great for years. We avoid cheap materials that wear out or damage wine bottles over time.



Custom Finishes


Our finishes add both protection and personality to your wine cellar. You can choose from stains that highlight the wood grain, such as walnut or espresso, or paint colors for a modern look.


We apply sealants that resist moisture, dust, and temperature effects. This keeps the finish fresh and durable.


For a unique touch, we offer hand-rubbed or distressed finishes to match your home decor. Every cabinet is finished carefully to ensure it meets your style and function needs.

Integrated Lighting



Lighting in a wine cellar is important. We install LED lights inside cabinets and under shelves. These lights use low heat and energy, protecting your wine from temperature changes.


Options include warm white lighting for a cozy feel or cooler lights to enhance bottle labels. We offer adjustable settings so you can change light brightness for different moods.


Our lighting designs highlight your wine and cabinetry, making your collection easy to see without exposure to harmful UV rays.
