So you're building a wine cellar for your home. You want to make it nice, but don't want to go overboard with the price, because hey, you'd like to spend it on wine instead of wood! The question comes to weather you should use pre-built wine racks, or have them custom built for your room. Because of the cost-benefit analysis, this can be a hangup for many people. Custom wine racks will obviously cost more than the premade systems, but the touch of luxury and uniqueness might be what you want. We'll look at the advantages and disadvantages of getting Custom Wine Racks for your wine cellar.

Advantages of Custom Wine Racks

Custom built wine racks have a few noteworthy differences over their pre-made counterparts. First of all, the system is built to fit exactly in your wine cellar. You will not have to worry about piecing and placing pre-constructed systems together to look good in your cellar. Custom wine racks are obviously designed, constructed and finished specifically for and in your cellar. A custom rack system will add more value to your cellar, and in turn your home, because people love the details and uniqueness of customization. The racks will also look exactly how you want them to look. If your wine cellar has a unique design style, layout, or specific size constraints, a custom wine rack system may be the only way to go to get an amazing product in the end.
Disadvantages of Custom Wine Racks
The biggest disadvantage of getting custom wine racks for your home wine cellar is the costs associated. The systems usually come with a high price tag because they are custom designed and built for your cellar. This fact alone is the biggest decision point for most people. You can build a wine cellar for decently cheaper if you use pre-constructed wine racks, or even make them yourself. Custom built wine racks aren't the best idea if you are trying to build on a budget.

Conclusion

In conclusion, Custom Wine Racks can be the touch of class and luxury that you're looking for in your home wine cellar, but will come with a price. You will have to examine at your own situation and decide for yourself if the luxury and customization justified the extra cost. For most people looking at putting in a home wine cellar, money isn't too much of an issue (wine cellars aren't quite a basic life need), so it can be a good idea. For others who are looking for a cheaper way to put a cellar in their home, custom wine racks aren't probably as good of an idea as buying premade ones or building them yourself.
