A Helpful Guide to Choosing Custom Wine Racks for Your Residential Wine Cellar in Seattle  

If you are building a residential wine cellar, you will need a well-designed custom wine rack system to ensure that your wines are kept securely and displayed beautifully. There is plethora of wine racks in the market, and choosing the best ones for your custom wine cellar without the help of an expert can be very challenging.  

We listed some useful tips when choosing the best custom wine racks for your residential wine cellar.  

Work with an Expert in Designing Elegant and Durable Custom Wine Racks for Residential Wine Cellars  

Wrong decisions can result in a costly expense or a waste of investment. For example, you chose wine racks, which you thought would look good when installed in your residential custom wine cellar. After the installation, you found out that the wine racks did not complement your home’s style, or they did not fit the shape of your wine room well. Then, you decided to modify the whole racking and spend money again!   

We also had clients who worked with a builder who lacked knowledge about designing custom wine racks for residential wine cellars in Seattle. They ended up calling us to seek help in creating a stunning and functional wine rack system that suits their specific needs.  

Keep in mind that it pays to know the background and experience of the wine rack supplier to ensure that you are working with a knowledgeable company. It is also necessary to look for the client’s testimonials about the products and services of the manufacturer.             

When you work with Custom Wine Cellars Seattle, you will not have to worry about anything. Our wine rack specialists will ensure that your racking meets your aesthetic and functional requirements. We will help build a wine rack system that will not only make your residential custom wine cellar stand out from the rest and enhance the beauty of your home but also keep your collection safe for many years to come.

A custom design for your wine racks offers many benefits. You can add a personal touch to your wine racks by incorporating custom features into the design. You may add a cigar humidor if you are a cigar smoker. You may also include murals, tabletops, stemware racks, drawers, cabinets, beer taps, and a wine bar. 

Moreover, your custom wine racks will be manufactured according to the size and shape of your residential wine cellar in Seattle. We recommend this option for residential wine cellars under the stairs where the ceiling is descending, in a walk-in closet, or in any odd-shaped room.

If you have a hundred or more bottles in your wine collection, we suggest the following wine rack styles: 

  • Solid or Lattice Diamond Bins (wood) – The bottles are stored on top of each other; ideal for bulk storage              
  • Case Storage Bins (wood) – Intended for storing wooden cases 
  • Double or Triple Deep Wine Racks (wood or metal) – Wooden and metal wine racks can be double or triple-deep to increase the storage capacity of your residential custom wine cellar   

Wine Rack Material: Which One Suits Your Needs?   

Most substandard wine racks are made with plastic cleats or wood that is not durable. Working with a reliable supplier will ensure that your custom wine racks are made of high-grade materials.

When choosing a wine rack material, structural integrity is the first thing to consider. Wine racks made from metal and wood are the most durable. Custom Wine Cellars Seattle offers metal wine racks from VintageView, which is known as a top-notch supplier of modern wine rack systems. Their wine racks are made from durable materials.  

We also offer wooden wine racks made from high-quality hardwood species such as Mahogany, Redwood, Alder, and Pine. These types of wood have a longer lifespan than softwood. Moreover, they can withstand the high humidity levels in refrigerated residential custom wine cellars.   

Another thing to remember is to make sure that the wood, paints, and finishes do not release noxious fumes or gases. This process, where chemicals are emitted, is called off-gassing. It can affect the quality of the wines stored in your residential custom wine cellar. At Custom Wine Cellars Seattle, we use high-quality hardwood and apply stains and finishes that do not emit harmful chemicals into the air.
