Commercial Wine Racks

What are Wine Racks?

Wine racks are storage solutions designed specifically for organizing and holding wine bottles in ladders, wine cellars, wine stocks, and back-of-the-house in foodservice businesses. Their primary purpose is to keep bottles in the correct position, ensuring the wine remains in contact with the cork to keep it moist and prevent air from entering the bottle, which could spoil the wine. From small countertop designs holding a few bottles to large, custom-built units capable of storing hundreds of bottles, wine racks are essential for wine enthusiasts, restaurants, and bars, aiming to preserve the quality and enhance the display of their wine collections.

What are The Main Features of Commercial Wine Racks?

Commercial wine storage is the correct solution for your needs whether you run a restaurant or a bar with their smartly thought features:

• Commercial wine storage racks feature wine cradle shelves or single-bottle sections with adjustable and removable dividers that keep the bottles horizontally for the best conservation position.
• Commercial wine bottle racks have slotted construction, which allows visibility and airflow around the bottles, providing the coolness that the wine needs.
• Most units have side and back panels to securely hold the wine bottles, while the ledges at the front prevent them from falling.
• Commercial wine racks also have adjustable feet to remain even on rugged floors, and some units feature adjustable posts to allow you to change the height for the bottle diameter.

What Material are Commercial Wine Racks Made of?

Commercial wine racks are manufactured from wood, metal, or plastic. Commercial metal wine racks are primarily intended for back-of-the-house storage. The most popular ones are stainless steel or aluminum and coated with epoxy or chrome plating, offering more place for bottles with more weight capacity.

What Size Wine Rack Do I Need for My Restaurant or Bar?

A small to medium-sized restaurant or bar might start with a wine rack that holds 50-100 bottles, providing a good balance between inventory size and space utilization. Larger establishments or those focusing on wine might need racks accommodating hundreds of bottles. Ultimately, the ideal wine rack size meets your current needs while offering the flexibility to adapt to future changes. We offer wine racks from 54 bottles of 25.36 oz (750 ml) to 240 bottles capacity.

Dimensions:

• Depth: Commercial wine racks are typically deeper than residential ones, ranging from 12 to 18" ( 30.48 to 45.72 cm) to accommodate larger magnum or Bordeaux-style bottles with wider bases.
• Height: Similar to home racks, height varies depending on capacity and style. Commercial settings often utilize floor-to-ceiling heights to maximize storage.
• Width: Commercial racks come in various widths to fit different spaces. Modular shelving systems offer the most flexibility, allowing for customization based on available wall space.

What are The Factors That Determine the Wine Rack Size?

The size of the wine rack you need for your restaurant or bar depends on the size of your inventory, space, display, storage options, turnover rate, and types of wine.

Commercial Wine Racks: Proper Storage for Relishing Wines

Commercial wine racks provide a secure and proper way of storing wine in commercial settings. Having a delicate and sensitive nature, wine must be stored horizontally and with a slight angle to ensure that the cork is always moist and airtight to maintain the safe storage conditions of wine.
