Step 3: Plan & Personalize Now comes the fun part, adding items to your wine cellar! We recommend starting by adding obstructions first, that are resizable placeholder items, to your wine cellar designs to help build your wine racking components around them (e.g. doors, windows, columns, etc.). This will save you time from moving items around to fit around each other. General Obstructions Usage Tips To place obstruction items on a wall, click and drag it to a wall until the wall turns yellow, then let go of the item. It will automatically snap into place. The DIY Wine Cellar Planner centers the first Obstruction and Racking items placed on each wall to help with exact center placements, so your first placed wall item will snap to center automatically. Once an item is placed or snapped, you can select it and move it around. Once an item is placed onto your wine room plan, you can select, move, copy, rotate, and delete it and view its product details, wood species, finish and lacquer options. Changing the wood species, finish and lacquer applies to all your wine racking components in your wine cellar plan. If you want to mix these selections simply instruct our designers of your desire when you submit your plan for review. We reduce wall dimensions by 1/2" for use of filler in case of plumb or dimension discrepancies. Vigilant DIY Wine Cellar Planner Instructions v1_2019 9 of 35
Adding Obstructions Vigilant Inc. To add an obstruction, click the Obstructions category on the left menu. It will open and list obstruction items. Current obstruction categories are Columns, Windows, Doors, Openings and Cooling Systems (See Figure 11). Figure 11 Click an obstruction category to see obstruction items. Select an obstruction item within a category and drag it into your wine cellar room, placing and moving it where it currently, or will, exist in your room (See Figure 12). Remember the first placed item, on each wall snaps to the center of the wall but can be moved after its been placed. Figure 12 Click and move/drag an obstruction item into your wine room plan. Vigilant DIY Wine Cellar Planner Instructions v1_2019 10 of 35
You can change the size of obstructions by clicking on it once it s placed on your wine room plan. Clicking on an item opens the Product Details menu on the right-hand side of your screen. Select the Change Size text, enter the dimensions of the obstruction and select the Set Size button to submit the dimension change (See Figure 13). Figure 13 Clicking an obstruction on your wine cellar plan opens the right menu allowing you to change the size of that obstruction. Types of Obstructions Columns Place columns into your design and resize them by double clicking each one and updating its size options in the right-hand menu. Windows Place windows into your design and resize them by double clicking each one and updating its options in the right-hand menu. Please be aware when you resize your windows you will need to enter a casing size as a separate dimension. Doors When adding a door leave enough room for your door and casings (trim around the outside). Be sure that if your door swings into the cellar, there is enough clearance for the door swing. When adding space for a door and sidelights, make sure that there is 13.5 inches of wall space to the right and left of the door/sidelights to account for the depth of wine racks. If you do not have 13.5 inches, you will want to stop your run of racking 12-18 inches from the door wall. Openings Place openings into your design and resize them by double clicking each and adjust its dimensions to fit your opening sizes in the right-hand menu. Cooling Systems Cooling systems are here for placement purposes. They can only be placed on a wall and typically would be installed either above or inside racking. Vigilant DIY Wine Cellar Planner Instructions v1_2019 11 of 35
o Due to the complexity of cooling systems you should contact us with questions or add questions when submitting a design within the DIY Wine Cellar Planner. o Wine racks will need to be scribed around the cooling system by an installer if placed inside racks. o Cooling systems cannot be placed in bins or void corners. o Typically, you only need one cooling system in a wine room. We sell a variety of cooling systems and wine cellar doors on our website. Be sure to visit vigilantinc.com to view our product options and pricing. Feel free to contact our wine cellar design experts for help picking out the right system and wine cellar door for your wine room. Racking After you ve added all your wine cellar obstructions, you can add Vigilant wine racking components. Select the Racking option on the left-hand menu. You will see two categories: Classic 77.5 h and Estate 92.5 h (See Figure 14). Select the racking option that best fits your wine cellar height. Figure 14 Click a Racking category to see the racking items. Vigilant DIY Wine Cellar Planner Instructions v1_2019 12 of 35
There are seven subcategories of racking you can choose from: Corner Racks, Individual Racks, Bins & Cases, Arch Tops, Half-Height Combos, Cabinet Packages, and Tables (See Figure 15). Figure 15 Racking sub-categories: Corner Racks, Individual Racks, Bins & Cases, Arch Tops, Half-Height Combos, Cabinet Packages and Tables General Racking Usage Tips To place items on a wall, click and drag it to a wall until the wall turns yellow, then let go of the item. It will automatically snap into place. Wine Rack Symbol Color - We have made it easy to identify which rack height you are using in your cellar design. Classic - 77.5" h is shown in light gray and Estate - 92.5" h shown in dark gray. You will only have access to Estate height racking components if your cellar ceiling is 92.5" or greater. The DIY Wine Cellar Planner centers the first item placed on each wall to help with exact center placements, so your fist placed item on each wall will snap to center automatically. Once an item is placed or snapped, you can select it and move it around. Vigilant DIY Wine Cellar Planner Instructions v1_2019 13 of 35
Adding Racking Vigilant Inc. To add racking components, click the Racking category on the left menu. Select the racking items from either the Classic 77.5 h or Estate 92.5 h categories based on your wine cellar height.

Remember the first placed item, on each wall snaps to the center of the wall but you can move it after its been placed. Figure 16 Click and move/drag racking components into your wine room plan.

Types of Racking Figure 17 Racking Item Icons Rotate left, Delete, Copy, Rotate Right. Corner Racks Wine racks designed specifically to fill the corners of your wine cellar room. There are three choices: Segmented, Curved and Void Corners. o If you don t want a corner rack, use the Void Corner graphic to fill the space and ensure your abutting racks align properly. o If you are only designing racks on one wall, no voided corner is needed. Individual Racks - Our top-grade Mahogany and Clear Northern Pine wine racks are the industry's best and offer the most extensive assortment of DIY racks for home wine cellars and retail wine stores. Our kit racks are available in two heights (Classic 77.5 h and Estate 92.5 h) and blend seamlessly with other Vigilant wine racking components. o You can add LED lighting to your racks and enhance the display of the bottles in the high-reveal rows. o The wine racks used in our DIY Wine Cellar Planner are kit racks and require selfassembly. o If there is something you would like that you don't see, or you want to add a custom feature please call us to work with one of our design experts 1(866) 756-5276. Bins & Cases Bins and cases are wall displays that provide an attractive way to store bulk wine or display decorative or important pieces in your wine cellar. They readily mix and match with our wine racks and cabinets and make it easy to be creative with your wine cellar design. o Quarter round components come in two directions, one will end a series of wine racks to the left and the other will end racking to the right. o Do not put quarter round shelves in a corner. They are decorative and are used to close off open ended racking and will not fill the space between two walls of racks. Vigilant DIY Wine Cellar Planner Instructions v1_2019 15 of 35
Arch Tops Arched decorative components are functional and add beautiful focal points to your wine cellar or a place to decant your wine. Add lighting to arch tops to create a dramatic display affect in your wine room. Half-Height Combos All our half-height wine racks are stacked combinations of our base and top wine racks making it easier for you to add to your wine cellar design. Cabinet Packages Our wine display cabinet packages feature some of our favorite standard options: soffit arches, storage bins, diamond bins, stemware wine racks, shelving and accent lighting. We take the guess work out of building these beautiful displays. LED lights are included in the arches and you will be allowed to add lighting to the cabinets of each modular package in your design. Tables Wine tables combine our base wine racks with tabletops, conversion boxes and stemware to offer additional wine storage and space for wine tasting, decanting and storage or display.
