Important Note:
These installation instructions will assist you with installing the VintageView R Series Helix Wine Rack
Post System (10’, 12’, or 15’ configurations) in standard floor-to-ceiling applications. The Post System is designed for ceiling heights of up to 122” (310cm), 144” (366cm), 180” (458cm), respectively. If using 5’ Post; or Angled, Hidden, Floor-to-Wall, and other non-standard Mounting Bases, refer to specific instructions for complete installation details.


Fasteners:

Fasteners for securing Helix Wine Racks are provided (self-drilling screws). When installing finished R

Series Post to the floor or ceiling, please use the following recommendations for fasteners:

1. IDENTIFY HARDWARE

Using the chart above, identify the proper floor/
ceiling hardware (not included) that will be needed
for your specific project. For drywall surfaces, Vin- tageView recommend installing to joists or wood backing when available.

2. MEASURE INSTALLATION HEIGHT

Measure the ceiling height of the location of the
first Post. Subtract 1/2” (1.5cm) from the measure
ment.

** OPTIONAL 12’ or 15’ ADJUSTMENT**

3. INSERT EXTENSION

If using a R Series Extension Piece (SKUs: RS-FCP-2, RS-FCP-12, or RS-FCP-15), complete this step. Slide the Hollow Post Section onto the C-Channel of
the 2’ or 5’ Extension. It may require a Rubber Mallet
to connect fully (Figure C, following page).

Instructions: Helix Wine Rack Post System

4. MARK THE POST

Before installing Helix Wine Racks, lay (1) Hollow Post Section overlapping (1) c-Channel Post Section (Figure A). Position the sections so that the measurement
from top to bottom of the base plates equals your
measurement from Step 2. Mark any overlap on the Hollow Post Section (Figure A). Note: The Mounting Base inserted into the top Post Section can telescope out 2” (51cm).

5. CUT THE POST

Using a Metal Cutting Saw, squarely cut the Post Sec-tion at the mark (Figure B). Use a Metal File to smooth rough edges. Avoid abrasive saws; they may damage the finish.
Slide the Post Section onto the c-Channel of the
lower Post (Figure C). It may require a Rubber Mallet to connect.

6. INSERT MOUNTING BASES

Insert (1) Mounting Base into the open end of the c-Channel Post Section. Mounting Base must be fully inserted into the Post. Secure the Mounting Base into the Post with (2) self-drilling screws through the pre-drilled holes (Figure D). Insert Mounting Base into
the Post Section. This will be the top of Post. Do not
secure with screws yet to allow for height flexibility.

7. MARK MOUNTING HOLES

Place the Post in the desired location. Ensure it is plumb with a level and mark the mounting holes on both the ceiling and the floor. Set the Post aside and pre-drill any required pilot holes based on hardware selection.

8. MARK MOUNTING PLATE HOLES

Lay the first Helix Wine Rack in the desired location on the connected Post. Mark the (2) or (3) mounting hole locations. Lay all additional Wine Racks in place to mark all additional mounting holes (Figure E, following page). Use a Level to ensure Racks are level.
Set Racks to the side.

NOTE: Helix Wine Racks can be installed to one, two, three, or four sides of the Post. If consecutive Racks are assembled on adjacent sides, ensure wine bottles will not hit one another when stored.

Instructions: Helix Wine Rack Post System


[IMPORTANT] STACKING DUAL RACKS

**For Dual Wine Racks, alternate between Standard (VintageView logo faces RIGHT) and Mirror models to maintain pattern of bottle depth (Figure F).**

9. PRE-DRILL MOUNTING HOLES

Using the provided Drill Bit, pre-drill all marked mounting hole locations.

10. INSTALL THE RACKS

Attach the first Helix WIne Rack to the Post using (2) or (3) Self-Drilling Screws into the pre-drilled holes. Repeat to attach remaining Wine Racks (Figure G).

11. INSTALL MOUNTING HOLE COVERS

Snap Mounting Hole Covers in place.

12. INSTALL THE SYSTEM

Stand Post Assembly in the desired location and en-sure it is plumb both front and back and side-to-side.

Secure Post to the ceiling (Figure H) using (2) of the appropriate fasteners (not provided). Double check the Post is plumb and secure Post to the floor using (2) appropriate fasteners (not provided).

You can adjust the Mounting Base up to 2” (5cm) to meet the ceiling. Once the top Mounting Base is fully installed to ceiling, secure to Post using (2) self-drill- ing screws through pre-drilled holes (Figure I).

13. ADD WINE

Only the good stuff.
