What we build here
Options to consider for your Walnut Creek project
A showroom conversation can put the project in focus. Explain what you want to store, what is not working now and which parts of the room are already decided.
Compare racking in person
Discuss wood and metal options, bottle formats and the layout you want. Bring a representative bottle if its size is part of the problem.
Talk through the equipment
Replacing a unit or planning a new room? Bring Mike the model or dimensions to compare cooling and refrigeration options around the installation you have in mind.
Agree on the next step
A product question and a custom cellar need different follow-up. Tell us your scope so we can discuss the information needed for your project.
How a cellar happens
From a Walnut Creek floor plan to a stocked cellar
Agree on the scope, equipment and current lead times before ordering. The schedule depends on the room, products and work your contractor needs to complete.
Tell us about the room
Where the wine will live, how many bottles you own now, and how many you expect in five years. Photos and a rough sketch are enough.
Measure and check the envelope
Dimensions, insulation, vapour barrier, glass area, power, and where the heat can go. This is the step that prevents expensive surprises.
Design and capacity
Rack elevations, bottle count by bottle type, cooling options and finishes — reviewed before anything is ordered.
Order and coordinate
We supply racking, cooling, doors and refrigeration, and give your contractor rough-in notes for power, framing and condensate.
Prepare to fill the room
Review the layout and equipment instructions with your project team. Then bring your wine and accessory questions to Mike at the showroom to plan how you will stock and use the space.
The parts
What goes into a Walnut Creek cellar
All of it is stocked or ordered through the Walnut Creek showroom, and every one of them is a decision we can make with you before you buy.
Rack kits and custom racking
VintageView metal, Modularack pine, redwood and mahogany designer kits, and fully custom millwork when the room refuses to be rectangular.

Wine refrigerators and cabinets
Compare Transtherm wine cabinets and Marvel built-in refrigerators when a full cellar room is more than you need. Check the exact model’s ventilation, access and bottle-fit requirements.

Glassware and cellar accessories
Corkscrews, preservation systems, decanters, tags and the small things that make a finished cellar usable on a Tuesday night.

An outdoor wine cellar in Walnut Creek needs a more precise brief than a place to pour beside the patio. Decide whether you want outdoor serving, a detached enclosed wine room or s
Before you decide
Drive over and put your hands on it
Photographs flatten everything. Racking depth, the weight of a glass door, the actual noise a cooling unit makes at three feet — those you have to stand next to.
Visit the Locust Street showroom on a weekday, or arrange a Saturday appointment to discuss your plans.

Walnut Creek questions we get asked
How long does a Walnut Creek cellar take?
Timing depends on design decisions, product availability and contractor scheduling. Contact Wine Hardware with your plans and target date so the next steps and current lead times can be discussed.
Do you come out to Walnut Creek to measure?
To work out the measurements your room needs, call Mike at (925) 944-1084. Bring any dimensions or photos you have. You can discuss whether a site visit would help, who would handle it and which drawings your project needs.
What will it cost?
Cost depends on the room preparation, racking, cooling and finishes. Send dimensions and a bottle count so we can discuss the scope and the information needed for a project quote.
Can you work with my Walnut Creek contractor or architect?
We can discuss the cellar scope with your contractor or architect. Bring the plans to review construction details, equipment requirements and responsibilities before finishes are fixed.
Can I visit without an appointment?
The showroom is open Monday–Friday, 9:30am–5:30pm. Saturdays are by appointment and Sundays are closed. Call (925) 944-1084 to arrange time to discuss your plans.
