9 Custom Cigar Lockers: Luxury Custom Builds for Homes, Lounges, and Retail Spaces

The first time I stepped into a proper cigar lounge, it felt less like walking into a shop and more like joining a private club. The air was rich, not just with the scent of tobacco, but with the sense that everything here had been designed to last. Then I noticed them—tall, beautifully crafted lockers lining the wall, each one with a small brass nameplate. Someone told me, “That’s where members keep their cigars.” I was hooked.

Since then, I’ve been down the rabbit hole of custom cigar lockers, and I’ve learned they’re so much more than storage. They’re a statement of taste, a safeguard for flavor, and a quiet luxury that says you understand the craft. Whether you run a lounge or want to create your own at-home retreat, the right locker isn’t just about function—it’s about presence.

Let me walk you through what I’ve discovered, the craftsmanship that matters, and the standout models that deserve a spot in any serious cigar space.

Born From Owner Feedback:  17/24 The EB-Locker Series

This is the cabinet I recommend when a lounge owner tells me, “I want something that looks as good in ten years as it does today.” The EB-Locker series was born out of years of conversations with cigar lounge owners, which means it’s been designed to meet real-world needs — not just showroom appeal.

Made from aromatic cedarwood, the interior naturally resists mold and infuses your cigars with that warm, spicy note aficionados love. The airflow design is meticulous — no “hot spots” or moisture pockets from top to bottom, so every cigar in every locker gets the same perfect environment. Add to that top-of-the-line hardware and a look that blends traditional craftsmanship with subtle modern touches, and you’ve got a locker that quietly commands respect.

The 17 Premium Locker version offers 15 standard lockers plus two larger bottom lockers for bulk storage or oversized boxes.

Commercial-Grade Custom Humidor Lockers: 18, 24, 30 Models

These models bring the craftsmanship of 100% Spanish Cedar into a commercial-grade build.  Made to order in the USA, every locker is designed for consistent humidity control, with options to fit your lounge’s or personal space’s style.

This piece is for the lounge owner or collector who wants their storage to make a statement before it’s even opened.  The 18 Commercial Locker Frosted Glass Model strikes the perfect balance between privacy and intrigue — letting light through but keeping the contents just veiled enough to feel exclusive.

Every inch can be tailored to your taste. Want a different wood species? A custom stain? LED lighting to make those frosted doors glow at night? It’s all possible. These lockers aren’t limited to cigars, either — they can be adapted for wine, liquor bottles, or a combination, complete with wine racks if you desire.

The 18-unit configuration ensures each member or guest has their own personal space, and the standard master-key locks offer convenience while keeping security tight. Espresso brown comes as standard, but the color palette is as open as your imagination. This is storage designed to enhance the atmosphere of your space as much as it protects your collection.

If you’re the type who likes to make your mark on everything you own, the 18 Commercial Cigar Humidor Locker will make you very happy. Made from 100% Spanish Cedar (solid and plywood), it’s a humidor locker that’s almost infinitely customizable.

Want the rich warmth of mahogany, the depth of espresso, or something unique to match your bar’s paneling? Done. Want to switch from flat doors to glass panels with LED lighting? Also done. You can even choose between classic brass nameplates or more modern finishes.

The 18-locker design includes one locker set aside for the humidifying unit, ensuring the rest benefit from perfect humidity distribution.  Similar to the 18 Locker Frosted Glass Model, you can opt for a standard lock with a master key, or step up to combination or even electronic locks for more control.

This is the kind of locker that lets you express your lounge’s personality without sacrificing function — and the moment your guests see their names gleaming on the brass plates, they’ll know they’re in for something special.

When your clientele is large and loyal, storage needs grow — but style shouldn’t take a back seat. The 24 Commercial Cigar Locker offers more capacity without sacrificing the handcrafted feel.

Like its smaller sibling, it’s built from solid Spanish Cedar and cedar plywood, with customization options that run from door styles to color finishes to lighting. The design includes one locker for the humidifier, with the remaining 23 evenly balanced for airflow.

What I love about this one is how it fills a wall without overpowering a space. It’s substantial enough to be a statement piece but proportioned so that it complements, not dominates, a lounge’s layout. The taller rows add a sense of grandeur — ideal for venues that want to showcase the cigars themselves through glass or wire mesh doors.

This unit’s larger footprint allows for 29 usable lockers (plus one for the humidifier), which means more members can have their own personal space — a key perk in private clubs. Like the others, you can go for classic wood-panel doors or make it a showpiece with glass panels and LED lighting that makes each cigar box glow like a gallery exhibit.

There’s something undeniably impressive about standing in front of a perfectly aligned bank of 30 lockers, each holding a story, a tradition, a moment waiting to be lit.

The 30 Locker Slab Doors Model was built to deliver the perfect storage environment naturally.  It's Spanish Cedar’s bitterness keeps pests away, its aroma deepens cigar flavor, and its moisture-retention properties ensure stability even if the humidifier isn’t running.

The slab doors give it a sleek, minimalist face that suits both modern and traditional settings. Similar to the previous model, inside, you’ll find 29 usable lockers and one dedicated humidifier compartment, all perfectly proportioned for boxes or bundles.

The wire mesh doors give guests a tantalizing glimpse of what’s inside while still maintaining the perfect environment for storage.

For larger lounges or retail spaces, this design is unbeatable in terms of both storage capacity and member experience. And, as always, you can switch out the doors for raised panels, glass, or flat slabs if you want to change the mood.

Custom Cigar Locker Buying Guide

Choosing the right cigar locker is about more than just dimensions. It’s about matching the unit to your storage needs, your space, and the overall experience you want to create. A well-selected locker not only protects your cigars but also becomes part of your lounge’s identity. Here’s what I recommend considering:

1. Material:

Spanish Cedar remains the gold standard, and it’s not just tradition talking. This wood naturally resists mold and mildew, deters tobacco beetles with its subtle bitterness, and imparts a warm, aromatic quality that enhances the flavor profile of your cigars over time. It also absorbs and releases moisture slowly, helping to stabilize humidity levels. Avoid particle board entirely — it doesn’t handle humidity well, lacks the aroma benefits, and simply won’t age with the same grace.

2. Airflow Design:

Consistent humidity is the heartbeat of proper cigar storage, and that depends on thoughtful airflow. A well-designed locker ensures the same climate in the top row as in the bottom, avoiding “hot spots” or overly dry areas. Look for ventilation channels, slotted shelves, or integrated distribution systems that work with your humidifier rather than against it.

3. Capacity & Configuration:

It’s tempting to choose a unit that fits your current needs exactly, but cigar collections tend to grow. A slightly larger locker or a model with expandable sections can save you from upgrading too soon. Consider whether you’ll be storing boxes, singles, or a mix — and whether certain members or guests will want larger compartments for personal stock.

4. Door Style:

The door is the “face” of your locker wall. Flat panel doors create a clean, classic look. Raised panels add depth and a sense of tradition. Glass panels — whether clear, frosted, or tinted — let your collection shine, while mesh doors offer a hint of what’s inside with an industrial edge. The style you choose will directly influence the atmosphere of the room.

5. Security Options:

Security is both a practical and a psychological factor. Master-key systems keep access simple for management, while individual keys or combination locks give members more control. In higher-end or busier environments, electronic keypad or smart locks add convenience and a modern touch, all while reinforcing the exclusivity of access.

6. Customization Potential:

 A custom locker is an opportunity to make storage a signature part of your brand. Beyond wood and stain choices, think about integrated lighting, engraved brass nameplates, door panel designs, and even bespoke dimensions that fit your space perfectly. The more it reflects your personality — or your lounge’s — the more it will enhance the overall experience.

FAQs About Custom Cigar Lockers

Why is Spanish Cedar so important for cigar lockers?

Spanish Cedar helps maintain stable humidity, repels tobacco beetles, and imparts a pleasant aroma that can subtly enhance your cigars over time.

Do I need a built-in humidifier?

While Spanish Cedar helps regulate moisture, a humidifier ensures long-term consistency — especially in larger units. Many premium lockers include a dedicated humidifier compartment.

Can I use a cigar locker for wine or spirits?

Yes — many custom lockers can be adapted with wine racks or shelving for liquor bottles. Frosted glass or LED lighting upgrades make them even more versatile.

How often should I maintain my cigar locker?

Regularly check humidity levels, clean surfaces to prevent dust buildup, and season the cedar if needed. For humidifiers, replace filters or refill reservoirs as recommended.

Is it worth investing in customization?

Absolutely. A customized locker not only fits your space perfectly but also elevates the overall atmosphere, making it a key part of your brand or personal collection.

Where Craftsmanship Meets the Ritual of Cigar Storage

A cigar locker isn’t just furniture — it’s a vault for your collection, a piece of the atmosphere in your lounge, and a subtle way to tell your guests you value the details. Whether you lean toward the frosted elegance of a glass-paneled model or the rugged charm of wire mesh, the right locker blends protection, presentation, and personality.
