A true custom wine cellar is measured by its distinct differences and unique features. These differences can be varying wood species, unique designs, custom colors or custom elements. Below are some creative elements we have used in building both custom wine cellars.
Note: Pre-stained and satin finish colors are representational only. The actual color of the product may vary slightly from the colors shown on your monitor.
Custom Wine Cellar Design Considerations
Conventional wisdom does not necessarily need to be followed when establishing your custom wine cellar wishlist. A true custom creation has many distinct features unique to it, but there are always many other options to complete the look you want for your project. Here are a few ideas to take into consideration when planning your custom wine cellar.
Plan your budget and what elements of your custom wine cellar are most important to you.
The climate in your area plays a huge role in determining how your wine cellar should be built. Check out the climate map for suggestions on build-out for your area.
Custom wine cellars can be built with any species of wood, although we strongly recommend mahogany as it has continually proven to be the most durable, and resistant to the elements in all of our tests.
Custom wine cellars can be finished with any stain. Choose one that matches the existing decor of your home or choose from one of ours.
Have your sales consultant quote Satin Finish. It will provide your wine cellar with a furniture finish and further protect your wood.
Match your walls to your custom wine room with bead board paneling or tongue and groove with matching stain and Satin.
Complete the design of your custom wine cellar with a custom wine cellar door. A Vigilant door is designed to fully protect your wine cellar environment and is fully customizable with glass options, wood options, stain options and anything else you can think of.
Wine cellar cabinets are an excellent addition to the design of any custom wine room becuase it allows for hidden and extra security on the storage of your finest wines. Ask for locksets when ordering.
