    Why Buy a Lockable Wine Fridge?

    Wine coolers fitted with locks are perfect for business owners using wine storage in busy commercial settings or passionate wine collectors who want to provide their wines with a fully protective environment.

    We stock luxury, secure coolers from leading brands such as Swisscave, Liebherr, Dunavox, Vin Garde, and mQuvee. Models installed with security measures are available from just £600, with premium products priced up to £4,000.

     

    1. Secure Your Wine Inventory

    Over half of our premium, freestanding, and built-in wine coolers are fitted with locks located at the bottom left side of the door, close to the handle, or at the top of the door.

    • Home Collection: Your prized wine collection can be a high-value asset within your home, especially when considering the value of larger collections stored in a large 100-plus bottle wine fridge —when a bottle of Champagne, Bordeaux, or Burgundy can comfortably cost £50 each. The Swisscave WLB460DFLD is a luxury wine cooler suited for a high-end collection of wines.
    • Business Inventory: For business owners operating in a commercial environment like a bar, restaurant, or shop—maintaining visibility of your vintage Pinot Noir and Chardonnay inventory is challenging. Safeguard your stock from opportunistic thieves.

     

    Secure your valuable wine collection whether that's at home or in a bar, hotel, golf club, health club, or restaurant.

     

    2. Child Safety Features

    A key consideration for those storing their wines at home is ensuring their bottles are kept safely out of reach of children.

    • Mitigate Accident Risk: A lock on the wine cooler door prevents an unsuspecting child from potentially opening the door and curiously pulling out bottles. Crucially, a shut door protects against injury from falling bottles or smashed glass.
    • Unwanted Temperature Changes: Many of our premium coolers feature "digital locks" so children can't change the settings of the device without pressing a certain button sequence.
    • Stop Easy Access: Keep your valuable wines out of reach of older teenagers (and their friends) by storing your bottles behind a secured wine cabinet door.

     

    Have peace of mind that your collection is stored safely when you're away from home.

     

    3. Preserve Wine Quality

    Locking the door to your wine fridge limits the frequency the door is opened, keeping the temperature in the fridge stable and precise.

    4. Meet Legal Compliance

    In a shop or environment where alcohol is being sold, local or regional requirements may mean alcohol needs to be kept behind a locked door in a commercial setting.

     

    Expert Advice on Keeping Your Wines Safe

    Even with a securely locked door on your wine cooler, there are additional steps you can take to provide further safeguarding to your wines:

    • Alarm Systems: Consider marrying your existing or future home security system to include your wine fridge and storage setup.
    • Surveillance Cameras: General home security cameras, which are relatively inexpensive in 2024, conveniently connect with your mobile phone.
    • Key Management: Keep the keys in a safe place and have a spare stored elsewhere. You could also get another key cut if needed.
    • Wine Fridge Without Lock: If your existing wine fridge or the model you're looking to purchase doesn't have a lock, retrofitting locks are available online for less than £40. Alternatively, position your wine collection in a room where the entry door can be locked.

     

    Take extra steps to mitigate the risk of your wines being stolen or damaged.

     

    FAQs

    1. Do the Locks Open with a Key?

    Yes, every fridge we sell is locked and unlocked with a key.

    2. Are the Locks Child Proof?

    Yes, the locks on the wine fridges we stock are childproof.

    3. How Secure are the Locks?

    Lockable wine fridges are more secure than models without locks; however, they are designed to safe-grade standards but still offer a considerable deterrent.

    4. How Many Keys Do They Come With?

    Most wine fridges come with 2 or 3 keys, and replacements can be ordered directly from the manufacturers should you lose any of the keys. The keys are usually located in a small plastic bag inside the unit along with the user manual and other accessories.

    5. Are Combination Locks Available?

    No, combination locks are not fitted as standard on models we offer. Although, there may be coolers with integrated combi locks available elsewhere.
