Display Case Construction

Hardwoods:  PCW uses Red Oak as its standard hardwood for display case construction, but other woods are available for custom requests. Black Walnut, Cherry, and Maple are some of the available and common requests.

Built to Last

Our standard cases are constructed with a solid red oak frame and shelves, a white paneling backing, and sliding tempered glass doors. A medium walnut stain is used to accentuate the oak's natural grain structure. Shelves are permanently secured by nails through rear paneling and sit on opposing end dowels.

Hanging Your Display Case

Move your collections from boxes or dusty shelves and proudly display them on the wall without taking up valuable living space. The display cases can be mounted on the wall by drilling brass colored screws and washers through white paneling backing to the wall studs. Make sure the quality of your collection lasts throughout the years while proudly displaying them.

Custom Made Display Cases

PCW offers several sizes, many of them shippable directly to your address. From case heights of 12 to 38 inches high, case lengths of 22 to 96 inches, and case depths of 2 to 8 inches, there are many options to fit your collection. Refer to one of the “PDF files” for the available frame sizes (height x length). Frame depth, shelf width, and shelf height can be adjusted to fit your custom order request. Frame sizes outside of listed available frame sizes will require a custom glass order.
