We've Updated Our Website

We're excited to announce that we've updated
our website's back end code as well as the front end look.
It's something we've been needing to do for some time
as most our old code was pretty much duck taped together
and it just got sloppier as the years went by.

Now are site is not only faster in terms of loading for dial up
or slow mobile device connections,
but it meets and exceeds WC3 HTML 5
and WC3 CSS Validation standards.

Our website is also compatible with the most commonly
used browsers in use today, to include Internet Explorer 9 and above
as well as all versions of Mozzilla FireFox , Opera, Google Chrome
and Safari .

We've also tested our website's graphics and page load
times using various online tools that check for speed and lets
us now where there are areas we may need to correct.
With that in mind, we have crunched our graphics as much
as possible to help ensure you have a pleasant and user friendly experience.

Anyway, I just wanted to share this information for all to see
because in the process, I learned a lot more technical stuff than
I ever dreamed possible and I think it has really improved out website's overall performance.

Slight Adjustments To Your Wine Glass Rack

We can usually make slight adjustments to your
under cabinet/counter wine glass rack, at no additional charge.
For instance, say you want a 26.5 or 27.5 inch long glass rack...
Simply purchase a 26 inch long unit (at either 9,10 or 12 inches deep)
and leave us a message at CheckOut about the slight adjustments.
These slight adjustments aren't generally a problem.
Just understand that we would make the length as close to your original length as possible,
(with-out going over your adjustment specifications).
This is because you don't want the 'spread' the slats to be
too far apart (or too close together)
and this can only be determined when the rack is laid out for assembly.


SEE EXAMPLE BELOW

* We're also able to cut any units down to your cabinet's depth/specifications.
Just purchase the next size/depth up and at CheckOut, let us know how deep you need the slats.

(For instance, if you have 11.5 inch depth to work with, purchase a 12 inch unit and we'll cut the slats down to 11.5).

How It All Began

The idea to manufacture and market wine glass racks online for the consumer at large popped into my head
due to a job I was commissioned to do back in the late 90's for the Lake City Country Club, in North Florida.
It was sometime in the middle of 1999 that it dawned on me as I was flipping through some of my work photo albums,
that this might be something folks would be interested in.

From there we went on to develop different styles of wine glass racks.
Many of our first customers were the one's who collaborated with us and helped set the business in motion.
In mid-summer of 1999, we test marketed a variety of glass racks on
sites like eBay and the old Yahoo Auctions site.
We even set up old Yahoo/GeoCities and Anglefire/Lycos free web sites
and were taking orders and selling to folks from there.

Imagine that!

Anyway, I just wanted to post this, because I realized I've never put out a founding statement about our
company and how it all begun.

Drop by sometime, we'll be happy to build you a wine glass rack for your stemware to reside in. :-

Mounting A Glass Rack Under A Partial Board OR MDF Counter/Cabinet


Particle board or MDF, are commonly used material these days.
Many manufactures of counter tops, cabinets, curio hutches, entertainment centers and alike, use this material because it is cost effective for them.
However, partial board can be a pain to try and screw through, as it can be brittle.

You most certainly want to make small pilot holes to help prevent the screws
from wallowing out as you try to screw in any type of 'add on' appliance.
Another tip to ensure your wine glass rack (or any appliance)
will stay in place, is to use either a wood glue, or construction adhesive.
This also holds true if you plan on mounting a glass rack under a marble counter top
or any other non porous surface.

We recommend using either LIQUID NAILS, Gorilla Glue, or even Elmer's Wood Glue or for this type of mounting application.
Just be sure to check the formula you use, to ensure it will work with
the surface in which you wish to mount your glass rack to.

Glass Racks With Imagination

This was originally a TV entertainment cabinet
that a customer converted into a wine bar that stores
both her stemware and bottles of wine.
We built here a custom stemware unit to accommodate her glasses
and as you can see, the wine glass rack fit perfectly.

Thanks Betsy, your an inspiration and your finished project not only looks awesome...
It demonstrates that one could recycle an old entertainment center into a wine bar.
What a wonderful, economical addition to your home bar area.
