Do you want to show off your favorite cards AND your display case?
Our display cabinets look simple, but they have a lot of unique features.

We offer them in walnut wood and black lacquered oak.

But first, I'm a woodworker and baseball card collector, so naturally I had to make the best display case available. :)  I will gladly answer any questions.  You may call or text me, Tyler Morris, Fort Collins, CO, 970-690-0503.

THE DOOR.  We only use OPTIX FRAME GRADE UVF.  It's an ultraviolet (UV) filtering acrylic sheet that absorbs 98% of damaging UV light.  Here's a link to it for more information:

Our doors are solid wood and are joined with Festool's "dominos."
Please note that walnut wood naturally features significant color variation, ranging from light to dark brown, and this natural variety will be present across your cabinet.

THE SHELVES. We have two options for you:
1. Fixed shelves (6" tall capacity) for 16-20 slabbed cards.
2. Fixed shelves (4 5/8" tall capacity) for 20-25 raw/toploaders/one-touch cards.
The grooves in all of our shelves have our unique angled back edge. This allows any card from 1/16" thick (toploader sleeve) to 3/8" thick (magnetic one-touch holders) to slide downward to the inside of the front edge. This design forces all the cards to rest in the same plane, making the entire display more attractive.

THE CASE. The case is made of solid walnut and the back is black melamine.  
The case measures 18" wide x 27 3/4" tall. The cabinet sides are 3/4" thick, so the cabinet interior is 16 1/2" wide x 26 1/4" tall.

THE LOCK. We use high quality, keyed, black body and bezel, "cam" locks from CompX.  

THE FINISH. They are finished with a durable, pre-catalyzed, satin lacquer. This cabinet's fit and finish is comparable to our other fine wood products.

THE HINGES.  We use high quality five-knuckle institutional hinges from Rockford Process in Gloss Black.  They open 270 degrees and each have 9 screws!

INSTALLATION. First, your cabinet will arrive completely assembled with two, 1/4" holes in its back. We include two "perfect for the job" screws, for you to screw into one stud in your wall.  Complete instructions are included.

CARE INSTRUCTIONS.
- Acrylic Door: The acrylic door should be cleaned with a soft cloth using water and a mild soap.
- Walnut Wood: No special care is required for the walnut wood. However, you are welcome to use a furniture polish. I recommend Howard Orange Oil.

ONE OTHER THING. Our cabinets are designed to be "flippable." This means the cabinet box can be rotated 180 degrees to allow the door hinges to be positioned on either the left or the right side, depending on your preference.

LASTLY. If you buy a cabinet for your sports cards or MTG cards or Pokemon cards or whatever you have, I would love to see your collection in it!  So, message me through etsy or text 970-690-0503  :)
And, as I hope you would assume... the cards are not included. Thanks for your interest!
