VigilantInc.com Tip: Choosing Wine Cabinet Furniture Styles

Choosing the right wine cabinets for your wine has a lot to do with what room the wine storage cabinet will be in and whether you expect to add more wine storage cabinets later. Several options are available when choosing which style of wine cabinets will be right for your needs. Common styles of wine cabinets are modular designs, custom designs, and refrigerated cabinets.

Modular designs allow you to expand your storage space over time. They also allow you to fit a layout to the size wall or space you want to use without having to get everything custom made.

Custom designs provide the upscale look to your wine rack cabinet display. They can include ornate trim and curved surfaces not available in the modular kits. Custom designs are also great when dealing with very little space (such as under stairs) to best utilize the entire space without the vibrations of people walking up and down the stairs affecting your wine.

Refrigerated cabinets allow you to control the environment without needing to use a climate system in a wine cellar. They also control both the temperature and humidity, ensuring your wine collection is in the best condition for its age.

VigilantInc.com Tip: Using Space Effectively with Wine Cabinets

Wine cabinets come in such a variety of sizes it’s possible to fit one in almost any room. However, being able to best utilize your space is a concern when purchasing wine cabinet furniture. Whether you are building a wine cabinet or purchasing a wine rack cabinet, you have to be sure you can easily access your wine and keep it in optimal condition to ensure the best quality when you drink it.
The biggest space waste always seems to happen in the corner of any room. Look at any kitchen setup and the bottom corner cabinet always has some wasted space. The same can be true of a wine cabinet layout if the wine cabinet plans don’t use the corners properly. If you're planning on building a wine cabinet, expect to test your skills at woodworking trying to optimize the space in corners. However, professionally designed wine cabinet plans include specially designed corner wine cabinets. A corner wine cabinet usually has a flowing curved edge and a layout that maximizes the space available. Be sure to consider the corners and you can be sure you are using all the space in your wine cellar to get maximum storage capacity.

A Wine Rack Cabinet Alternative

An alternative to home wine rack cabinets is wine storage lockers. These lockers are excellent for smaller collections of wine. Usually, they are found within larger wine storage areas, many of which are commercial. Think of them as a smaller version of a walk-in wine cellar. The lockers are temperature and humidity controlled. (That means they also receive similar regular maintenance.) Should you decide to store your wines in a wine storage locker, inquire if the facility has insurance to cover your wines. Most do, but it's wise to take the extra step to ensure the safety of your collection.

Choosing a Wine Cabinet

There are two main concerns when selecting a top-quality wine cabinet. Whenever possible, try to see the wine cabinets in person. While shopping around, have a look at the hinges. Be sure they are flush with the cabinet, thus allowing the doors to close and seal properly. Next, check the quality and durability of the walls of the cabinet. Be sure the material is solid enough to preserve the interior temperature as well as sturdy enough to hold the weight of all your bottles of wine.
