Our ClimaCabs are built in two sections - the upper section and the lower section. The lower section provides stability and strength as well as storage of key components of the humidity control system and for a variety of music related items. It comes standard at 17" tall and when adding storage solutions, the height is often increased to accommodate. We offer several ways to customize the lower section which can result in a different appearance, function, and size. All drawers and pull outs feature Blum brand soft close slides, which close slowly and softly regardless of how hard they are closed or how heavy the drawer/pull out is.

Pull out shelves feature a flat deck that is recessed by 1/8 inch from the perimeter hardwood edge to prevent items from slipping off of the shelf. Undermount soft close slides return the shelf to the resting position slowly regardless of how hard you push on it or how heavy the items are being stored. The deck size varies in width based on the width of the ClimaCab, and the depth can vary from 12 inch, 15 inch, or 18 inch. When shelves are utilized, it is necessary to duct the humidifier from the floor of the lower section to the upper section. This is accomplished by placing the humidifier reservoir on the floor in the back of the lower section and connecting high quality HVAC components.

In most situations, the standard 17" high lower section must be expanded to accommodate the height of the amplifier on the pull out shelf. The shelf plus the hardware consumes 2 1/2" at the floor of the lower section and the face framing consumes another 4". A safe rule of thumb when estimating height required is to measure the amplifier resting on the ground to the top of the handle in its highest position and add 8". This will give a clearance of approximately 1 1/2" from the top of the handle to the upper face frame and account for any inaccuracies when measuring.

The table below will assist in determining height requirements to store your amplifier in the lower section of the ClimaCab.

Shelving is constructed from robust 3/4 inch plywood with a hardwood edge. The shelves are supported in two primary methods depending on whether the shelving is fixed or adjustable, and both methods yield strong support and shelving capable of holding heavy items. The ability to combine one or more lower section storage solutions is available, as shown in the image below. A common combination is to include shelving at the top, running from the edge of the humidifier hardwood box to the edge of the cabinet, and to install a pull-out tray or shelf below.
