Industrial furniture that doesn't overpower your room while still making a statement requires the right balance of materials and proportions. The Mercana Gehry Four Doors Wood Sideboard is a 62-inch Industrial style sideboard built for dining rooms that need substantial storage with glass-front display capability, available at LOOMLAN with free shipping to the continental US. This piece combines a graphite black metal frame with solid Indian mango wood accents, creating visual interest through material contrast rather than overwhelming bulk. At 33 inches high and just 16.5 inches deep, it provides ample storage without dominating your wall space, making it ideal for rooms where you want industrial style that feels intentional rather than heavy-handed.
What Is a Sideboard?
A sideboard is a long, low storage cabinet traditionally used in dining rooms for serving food and storing dishes, linens, and dining accessories. Unlike a console table which is primarily decorative, a sideboard prioritizes functional storage with doors and drawers. Also known as a buffet cabinet or credenza, modern sideboards have evolved beyond dining room use to provide versatile storage in living rooms, entryways, and bedrooms. Best for spaces that need both concealed storage and display capability, especially when you want to showcase glassware or decorative objects behind glass doors.
Storage and Display Features of the Mercana Gehry Sideboard
- Arrives Fully Assembled -- No tools or setup required. Ready to place and use immediately, which saves you hours of assembly time and eliminates the risk of incorrect installation.
- Four Glass-Lined Display Doors -- Showcase your glassware, decorative objects, or dishware while protecting them from dust. The glass fronts let you see what's stored inside without opening doors, making it easy to locate items quickly during entertaining.
- Two Bottom Pull-Out Drawers -- Ideal for storing table linens, serving utensils, or smaller items you want to keep out of sight. Drawers provide easy access to frequently used items without the need to bend down and reach into cabinet spaces.
- Solid Indian Mango Wood Accents -- Real hardwood construction provides durability and authentic texture that improves with age. The natural wood grain adds warmth to the industrial metal framework, preventing the piece from feeling too cold or commercial.
- Graphite Black Metal Frame Construction -- The metal framework provides structural integrity while creating clean, geometric lines. The dark finish coordinates with existing hardware and fixtures without requiring exact matches to other finishes in your room.
- Exposed Nail Head Details -- Industrial-inspired hardware elements add authentic character to the design. These functional details become decorative features that reinforce the piece's workshop-inspired aesthetic without appearing gimmicky.
- Horizontal Profile with Rounded Corners -- At 62 inches wide and 33 inches high, the proportions work well against standard 8-foot walls. Rounded corners eliminate sharp edges that could cause injury and soften the overall industrial appearance.
- Mixed Storage Configuration -- Combines open display space behind glass doors with concealed drawer storage. This gives you flexibility to show off attractive items while hiding less decorative necessities like extension cords, batteries, or paperwork.
Room Size Guidelines for a 62-Inch Sideboard
The rule is your sideboard should be no more than 2/3 the length of your dining table. For a 72-inch table, that means a sideboard up to 48 inches wide works well, but this 62-inch Gehry sideboard pairs perfectly with tables 84 inches or longer. In a dining room, plan for at least 36 inches of clearance behind dining chairs to allow passage between the table and sideboard. For living room use, ensure 18 inches of clearance on either side of the sideboard for proper traffic flow. Standard sideboard height ranges from 30-36 inches, and this piece at 33 inches provides comfortable serving height when used in a dining room. The 16.5-inch depth (42 cm) means it won't protrude far into your room -- important in smaller spaces where every inch of floor space matters.
Styling the Gehry Sideboard in Industrial and Mixed Interiors
Position this sideboard against your longest uninterrupted wall for maximum visual impact. The glass-front doors work best when you style them with a curated collection rather than cramming them full -- try grouping white or neutral dishware by height, or display a collection of glass vases with similar proportions. On top, balance the 62-inch length with a large piece of art centered above, or create asymmetrical groupings with a table lamp on one end and a collection of objects on the other. The industrial materials pair naturally with modern lighting fixtures in brass, black, or natural materials. Use this piece as a bar cabinet by storing glasses in the upper compartments and bottles or bar tools in the drawers. In a living room, it works as media storage with the glass doors showcasing books or decorative objects while drawers hide remotes and cords. Consider a jute or sisal area rug at least 8 x 10 feet to anchor the piece in your room layout. The dark metal finish coordinates with dining chairs in similar industrial materials or rich wood tones.
Ideal for homeowners furnishing open-plan dining areas who need storage that bridges kitchen and living room aesthetics without looking too utilitarian. Interior designers specifying industrial or transitional dining rooms will appreciate the authentic material combination and LOOMLAN's 40% trade discount with no minimum order requirement. Well-suited for boutique hotels and vacation rental properties seeking furniture that appears residential but offers the durability and easy maintenance needed for commercial use.
Common Questions About This Industrial Sideboard
- What are the interior dimensions of the glass compartments and drawers?
- While specific interior measurements aren't provided, the four glass-lined door compartments are designed to accommodate standard dinnerware and glassware. The two bottom drawers run the width of the unit and are sized for table linens and serving accessories. Contact LOOMLAN at 833-566-6526 for precise interior shelf dimensions if you need to fit specific items.
- How does this compare to sideboards from West Elm or CB2?
- At this price point, you get solid Indian mango wood construction and a metal framework typically found in pieces costing significantly more at mainstream retailers. Many mass-market sideboards use laminate or veneer over particleboard, while this Mercana piece features real hardwood and metal construction that will age better over time.
- Can this be used as a TV stand for a 65-inch television?
- At 62 inches wide, this sideboard is slightly narrower than the ideal width for a 65-inch TV, which measures about 57 inches diagonally but roughly 57 inches wide. While it could physically support the TV, the glass doors and display-focused design make it better suited for dining room storage or as a media cabinet for smaller TVs and accessories.
- Does this piece require any assembly?
- No assembly required. The sideboard ships fully assembled and ready to use. This is a significant advantage over flat-pack furniture that can take 2-4 hours to assemble and often requires two people.
- Is trade pricing available for interior designers?
- Yes, LOOMLAN's trade program offers up to 40% off retail pricing with no minimum order requirement. Approval takes 1-2 business days, and trade pricing displays automatically after login with no coupon codes needed.
- What is LOOMLAN's return policy on this sideboard?
- LOOMLAN offers returns within the timeframe specified in their return policy. Since this piece ships fully assembled, return shipping may involve freight arrangements, so measure your space carefully before ordering.
- How do the glass doors open and close?
- The four glass-lined doors are hinged and open traditionally. While the product specifications don't mention soft-close hinges, the solid construction suggests quality hardware that will operate smoothly over time.
