Custom Cabinetry / Bars & Wine Rooms

Bar & Wine Room Cabinetry

Built for entertaining at home — wine storage, glass display, and bar cabinetry sized to how you actually host.

Designed Around You

Cabinetry Designed Around How You Entertain

A bar or wine room only works if it fits how you actually host — a quiet collector's wine wall, a busy bar for regular gatherings, or something in between. Before we design anything, we talk through the size of your collection, how often you entertain, and how much of it you want on display.

Those answers shape the split between display racks and closed storage, and whether appliances like a wine fridge or ice maker are part of the plan.

Before the Layout Locks In

What to Think About Before the Layout Locks In

A few decisions are much easier to make before the cabinetry is built than to change after.

Wine Storage & ClimateBottle capacity and any wine fridge or cooling unit placement need to be settled early, since they affect ventilation and cabinet depth.

Glassware StorageStemware, rocks glasses, and everyday glasses each fit differently, so racks and shelving get sized to what you actually own.

Plumbing for a Wet BarA sink or ice maker changes the plumbing plan significantly, so that decision needs to be made before layout begins.

Display vs. Closed StorageHow much of the collection is meant to be seen versus tucked away shapes the mix of open racks and cabinet doors.

Electrical for AppliancesBeverage centers, ice makers, and wine fridges each need dedicated power planned in before cabinetry is built around them.

Entertaining FlowA bar used for hosting works best positioned for easy access without cutting through the main gathering space.

Function First

Storage That Actually Gets Used

The bars and wine rooms that get used stay organized around real habits — wine racks sized to actual bottle counts, stemware racks that keep glasses protected and within reach, and appliance garages that keep small appliances out of sight until needed.

Materials

Materials That Suit a Bar or Wine Room

Bar cabinetry needs to hold up to spills and regular use, while wine storage areas benefit from finishes suited to a cooler, more controlled environment. See species and finish options on Design & Selections.

Common Questions

Bar & Wine Room Questions

Can you build cabinetry around an existing wine fridge?

Yes — we measure the unit and coordinate ventilation and clearance requirements into the surrounding cabinetry during design.

Do you build glass-front cabinet doors?

Yes, glass-front doors are a common choice for bars and wine rooms where display matters. We can mix glass and solid doors based on what you want shown versus hidden.

Can you plumb in a sink or ice maker?

We design the cabinetry around it and coordinate with your plumber on the connection, so the layout accounts for it from the start rather than working around it later.

How much wine storage do we actually need?

It depends on the size of your collection and how it might grow. We'll talk through your current and future capacity during your consultation rather than defaulting to a standard rack count.
