COMMON PRODUCT QUESTIONS

Do I put the racks together myself?
Racks are shipped mostly pre-assembled but will require some basic user assembly in order to set the racks up. We recommend the use of a cordless screwdriver or drill fitted with a phillips bit for most assembly.

How long does it take to assemble a rack?
Small racks should take less than 10 minutes to assemble. Large racks can take up to 30 minutes per rack to assemble. Please see the user instructions that come with your rack for step by step direction.

What are your racks made out of?
All lattice-type racks are made from clear, knot-free Premium Redwood or Ponderosa Pine. Tops and solid bin components are "knotty" grade and may contain non-structural, quarter-size knots. Pine has a soft natural white/yellow color and is very consistent, where Redwood varies from dark red to pinks with swirls of white, yellow, and brown.

Do you make racks to custom sizes?
We have such a large selection of standard sized racks that in most cases we can recommend an existing rack that will fit your needs. If you require additional modifications that cannot be filled by a standard rack, you may request shop customization by calling our toll free number or emailing cellardesign@wineracksamerica.com

Do your racks come finished or unfinished?
All racks are delivered cleanly sanded on all sides (S4S), and unfinished. Some customers stain the wood to match existing colors in the room, paint them, or apply a clear coat to beautify and seal the wood. We recommend always using a water-based stain or seal on your wine cellar racking, as it will not introduce harsh or damaging odors into your cellar space. Our history shows most customers prefer the look and smell of unfinished wood and leave them as is. Any of these treatments work fine, it comes down to your personal preference.

Should I anchor my rack to the wall?
Because your rack can be very heavy when fully loaded, please avoid tipping by attaching your racking to a wall. Use your own technique or follow these simple instructions...

1) Put the rack where you are going to want to leave it. Shim the front edge of your rack so the back is even with the wall. Locate a wall stud behind the rack. Drive semi-long wood screws through a back connector and attach the rack to the stud.
or...
2) Shim even, then use "L" brackets (available at any hardware store) and attach them to both the rack and the wall in any out of the way spot.

Can I hang my rack on a wall?
We no not recommend hanging wooden wine racks on your wall. Our racks are designed as standing floor units. While feasibly you could hang a rack, please be aware the structural modifications that will be necassary will void the lifetime guarantee on the product.

Are the racks designed so the bottles tilt forward?
Racks are designed to hold your bottles evenly, not tilted. The corks will stay wet as the bottles sit evenly, and you won't have bottles sliding out of the rack!
