After all, your favorite wines taste best when they are stored correctly and served at the right temperature. But a built-in wine climate cabinet is not only ideal for storing a stock of wines and being able to serve them immediately at temperature, they are also a real eye-catcher in many kitchens.

Perfect addition to many kitchens

Many (design) kitchens are nowadays equipped with all conceivable built-in appliances. It used to stop with a built-in refrigerator or dishwasher, nowadays you see the most beautiful built-in appliances such as steam ovens, coffee machines and combi microwaves. For the true wine lover, a beautiful built-in wine fridge cannot be missed.

What should I pay attention to when installing the wine cooler?

When you choose a built-in wine climate cabinet, it is important to take a few things into account.


Correct niche dimensions
Before purchasing, pay close attention to the external dimensions of the built-in wine cabinet
and the niche dimensions of your (existing) kitchen.
In principle, our under counter wine coolers that are suitable for installation have dimensions
that take the standard niche dimensions into account. Nevertheless, it is important to always
measure the niche dimensions.


Find the right built-in wine cooler

Now that the niche dimensions are known, you can find the suitable models on our product page
- possibly with the help of the filter. Always tick the box for "Compressor with fan" for
refrigeration. This filters out the models that are not suitable for installation. Please note that this
only applies to our own webshop, since our cabinets with compressors are suitable for both
free-standing installation and for installation. This can differ per brand / webshop.
