PALO Vinyl Slide Record Sideboard
The PALO Vinyl Slide Record Sideboard is a low record cabinet for collectors who want closed storage and visible vinyl in one calm piece of furniture. Behind the two sliding doors are two shelves for everyday storage, while the right side has four dedicated compartments for LPs. It keeps the collection close at hand without leaving the whole room on display.
At 41 cm deep and 47 cm high, PALO works well as a low record sideboard, beneath art, audio equipment or a compact listening setup. The vertical fronts and extended base give the cabinet a quiet, architectural line. It is made from FSC-certified natural wood, without MDF or chipboard, and is available in palisander veneer or other finishes from the Pastform sample range. For anyone who wants to organize vinyl with restraint, this is LP furniture that behaves itself.
Finish: The sideboard can be made in PALISANDER veneer or any other finish available in the SAMPLE section.

How do the sliding doors on the PALO VINYL SLIDE work?
The cabinet has two sliding doors concealing two spacious storage sections. Unlike hinged doors, sliding doors do not require additional clearance in front of the sideboard when opened.
What are the dimensions of the Pastform PALO VINYL SLIDE?
According to Pastform, the sideboard is 41 cm deep and 47 cm high. Several widths are available. Check your selected size when ordering, as the manufacturer's size selector and general description do not fully match.
Can I place a record player on the PALO VINYL SLIDE?
The wide top may accommodate a turntable provided its size and weight are suitable. Always check the load capacity and position the turntable on a stable, vibration-resistant surface.
What materials are used for this vintage record cabinet?
Pastform uses natural wood and wood veneer from FSC-certified sources. According to the manufacturer, the furniture contains no MDF or particleboard. The visible wood grain gives each cabinet its own character.
Which colours or finishes are available for the PALO VINYL SLIDE?
The standard displayed finish is Palisander wood veneer. Other finishes from Pastform's sample collection can also be requested, and colour samples can help you choose the right look.
Does the PALO VINYL SLIDE suit retro and modern interiors?
Yes. Its clean lines, vertical fronts and slightly recessed base create a timeless appearance. This record sideboard works well in retro, vintage and contemporary minimalist interiors.
Is the Pastform PALO VINYL SLIDE delivered assembled?
Yes. According to Pastform, the sideboard is shipped fully assembled. Delivery with an in-home carry-in service is available in countries including the Netherlands, Belgium and Germany.
What is the lead time and can the PALO VINYL SLIDE be customised?
Pastform indicates an approximate lead time of 8 to 12 weeks. Custom dimensions and finishes may be discussed. Please confirm the options and current lead time before ordering.
How do I choose the right record cabinet for the size of my collection?
Count your LPs, then choose a record cabinet with enough capacity for the records you own now and some unused space for future purchases. Measure the available width, height and depth, including room for doors, drawers, cables and ventilation. Also decide whether the cabinet must support a turntable, amplifier or television; the AllVinyl collection can be filtered by capacity, dimensions and space for audio equipment.
How many LPs fit in a record cabinet, and why can the stated capacity vary?
Capacity figures are approximate because gatefold albums, box sets, outer sleeves and dividers occupy more space than standard single sleeves. A useful estimate is around 10–12 conventionally sleeved LPs per 3 cm, but records should not be packed so tightly that they are difficult to remove. AllVinyl models range from around 60 LPs per Kiyo compartment to 260 in the listed MOEBE configuration, 350 in the LOIA Digger and more than 400 in Plyphonic Model A.
How much extra record storage should I allow for a growing vinyl collection?
A sensible planning margin is approximately 20–30% above your current collection. Someone with 200 LPs should therefore consider record storage for roughly 240–260 records rather than buying a cabinet that is full on arrival. For collections that grow unpredictably, modular systems such as Kiyo and MOEBE can be rearranged or expanded instead of being replaced.
Can I place my turntable on top of the record cabinet?
Yes, provided the top is sufficiently large, level, rigid and rated for the weight of the turntable. Compare the turntable footprint with the usable surface and leave room for the dust cover, power lead and audio cables. Turntable manufacturer Pro-Ject advises placing a turntable on a level surface; AllVinyl models explicitly intended for turntable use include GRAM, PLAY, Curtis and LOIA Le Meuble Digger.
Which record cabinets also have space for an amplifier and other audio equipment?
Look for compartments with sufficient internal width, depth, height and load capacity—not merely a shelf that looks large enough in a photograph. GRAM has a middle shelf intended for an amplifier, LOIA Le Meuble Digger has open equipment shelves rated up to 14 kg each, and KRON has a central area with cable openings for an amplifier or streamer. MOEBE provides adjustable open shelving, while the Plyphonic models integrate amplification and other audio equipment into the furniture itself.
Do the cabinets include cable management and sufficient ventilation for audio equipment?
This differs by model. LOIA Le Meuble Digger has an open rear and adjustable cable grommets, MOEBE has open sides and backs, and KRON includes cable openings in its central equipment section. LOTV Vinyl Slide also has cable openings, but equipment placed behind closed doors must still have the clearance required by its manufacturer. Denon, for example, recommends around 15 cm above and 5 cm at either side of its AV receivers and warns against blocking their upper vents.
What is the difference between open record storage, closed cabinets and pull-out record drawers?
Open vinyl storage makes the collection easy to see and browse and generally provides better airflow around audio equipment, although records remain more exposed to dust and light. Closed cabinets create a quieter visual arrangement and reduce everyday dust exposure, but access and equipment ventilation require more attention. Front-browsing compartments and pull-out storage make it easier to flip through covers; GRAM and Curtis are designed around browsing access, while LOTV Vinyl Slide combines vertical LP storage with sliding-door compartments.
How should record cabinets store LPs vertically or horizontally, and which record cabinets do it properly?
LPs should be stored vertically, on edge, with enough lateral support to prevent them from leaning. Long-term horizontal stacks place unnecessary weight on the lower records and should not be the main storage method. Both the Canadian Conservation Institute and NEDCC recommend vertical storage for disc media. AllVinyl designs that explicitly provide supported vertical or angled storage include Curtis, the Sinfonic Audio cabinet, Kiyo’s 33 × 33 × 33 cm compartments, LOTV Vinyl Slide and the adjustable MOEBE system.
Are the record cabinets modular, expandable or available in custom dimensions and finishes?
Some are. Kiyo can be reconfigured and extended with additional modules, while MOEBE can grow in both width and height. Display LUNA also uses a modular construction. For made-to-order LP furniture, Sinfonic Audio offers a selectable number of compartments and alternative woods, Curtis can be adapted through custom work, and Plyphonic models are produced to order in selected finishes.
Do the cabinets arrive assembled, and what should I check before delivery?
Delivery and assembly depend on the maker. Kiyo arrives flat-packed and uses a tool-free magnetic connection system; MOEBE requires self-assembly; Display LUNA includes instructions and the necessary tools. Pastform models such as PLAY, LOTV, KRON and GRAM arrive assembled and include indoor delivery in the listed countries, while LOIA Le Meuble Digger is delivered ready-made on a pallet. Before ordering, measure doorways, corridors, stairs, lifts and tight corners, and check whether delivery is to the front door, inside the home or on a pallet.
