What we build here
What a cellar in Danville could look like
Decide whether the space is mostly for serving, for long-term storage or both. That one answer sets the cabinet location, the bottle layout and how much room you need when guests are standing around.
Check built-in compatibility
Pick a refrigerator meant for the installation you have in mind. Confirm the exact model's opening, ventilation, door swing and power before the cabinetry is built.
Make the display useful
Put visible bottle rows near the dining area, and keep doors, circulation and access to the rest of the collection clear.
Include a place to pour
A serving surface and somewhere for the glasses belong in the room layout. Set the height and position around the people who will use it.
What we do here
Four jobs, one showroom
We plan and supply the cellar. Mike sizes the storage and cooling, orders the equipment, and schedules the contractors he brings in for the build and installation.
Design and capacity
Rack elevations and a bottle count by format, so you know what the room holds before anything is ordered.
Racking
VintageView metal, Modularack pine, redwood and mahogany kits, and custom millwork when the room refuses to be rectangular.
Cooling
WhisperKOOL, Wine Guardian, CellarPro and CellarCool, sized against the room's heat load rather than its square footage.
Install coordination
Delivery, the install date and the contractors Mike brings in, coordinated from the showroom so the room is ready when the equipment is.
The nearest finished room
Step inside the Danville cellar
Stained alder, brickwork and a stone tasting counter. This one is in Danville.
Look for: the stone counter, and where the bins give way to single bottle slots.
Nearby
Three towns over
Same showroom, same equipment, different rooms. These are the neighbors we work in most often.
Straight answers
Asked in Danville
- How do I keep the everyday bottles apart from the ones I am aging?
- Two zones, usually: a short display run near the dining room for what gets opened this month, and deeper storage behind it for what does not. Tell Mike roughly how the collection splits and the layout follows from that.
- Is a glass wine wall off the dining room realistic here?
- A glass wine wall needs a plan for the enclosure, lighting and cooling. Send Mike the elevation before the glass is ordered.
- How long does a cellar in Danville take?
- It depends on design decisions, product availability and the schedule of the contractors Mike brings in. Tell Mike your plans and target date and he will walk through the next steps and current lead times.
- Do you come out to Danville to measure?
- Send whatever dimensions and photos you have to (925) 944-1084. Between you Mike will work out whether a site visit would help, who handles it and which drawings the project needs.
- What will it cost?
- It depends on room prep, racking, cooling and finishes. Send dimensions and a bottle count and Mike will talk through the scope and what he needs to put a project quote together.
- What if I already have a Danville general contractor or architect?
- Mike works alongside them when the cellar is part of a larger project. Bring the current plans while the construction details, equipment requirements and finishes can still move.
