How to create a cellar or fridge

A storage is a physical place you keep wine — a cellar, a wine fridge, a kitchen rack. Create one from the storages list: tap Create, choose Create Cellar or Create Fridge, name it, tap Create.

Cellar or fridge is a real choice, not a label

Section titled “Cellar or fridge is a real choice, not a label”

The type changes what you build inside and what the app can do for you.

Cellar Fridge
What you build inside Sections — racks and bins Shelves
Ready-made layout for your unit — ✅ Pick your brand and model, and every shelf is built for you

⚠️ A fridge model can only be chosen while you create the fridge. Build the shelves by hand first and there is no way to apply a model afterwards — you would have to create a second fridge.

  1. On Home, tap Edit beside Cellars & fridges.
  2. Tap Create, then Create Cellar or Create Fridge.
  3. For a fridge, Select your fridge model opens first. Pick a model, tap View all for a brand’s full range, or Custom to build the shelves yourself.
  4. Type a name — the only required field, and it must be unique in the collection.
  5. Optionally tap the image for Camera, Gallery or Change color.
  6. Tap Create.
Home → Cellars & fridges → Edit → Create → Create Fridge → Select your fridge model → Create

There are two ways to reach the edit screen, and they open the same one: swipe left on a row in the storages list and tap Edit, or open the storage and pick ⋯ → Edit. Either changes the name, photo, colour or icon. The ⋯ button only appears if you have editor access. For the order the storages appear in, see How to reorder your cellars and fridges.

Deleting offers to transfer the bottles first — take that offer, or they go with the storage and cannot be recovered. A storage whose 3D model our team built for you cannot be deleted from the app at all. How to delete a cellar or fridge covers both paths, the typed confirmation, and every reason a delete is refused.

Same flow, same drag-to-reorder, same transfer-or-delete choice. Ready-made fridge models aren’t on Android yet.

On app.invintory.com, the Cellars & Fridges heading in the left sidebar has a + — choose Cellar or Fridge. Fridge models are here too. Reordering is iPhone, iPad and Android only.
