Title: Slot Stand Height Post by: slot one on September 13, 2012, 11:13:14 PM Hello everyone. I am building a slot stand for a few machines. What is the preferred height for a slot machine. What do casino's have and what are your personal tastes? All replies are weclome and suggestions would be great. I plan on building it 18 inches deep and 12 feet long to hold 5 machines, Just not sure how high? The machines in question if it matters are 3 S2000 and 2 BB1 Thanks slot one

I've seen recommendations for 22" high and built my first stands at that height only to find out they were too tall for a regular chair and too low for a bar stool. You need a real slot chair @ 22".

(Elite Manufacturing Technology) cabinet right out of a casino. Seems to me the perfect height for sitting or standing. I use a 24 inch chair. :89-

I guess that is the difference right there so go with what you prefer to sit in! I have 2 WMS Dotmations and a Gameking on the 16's and 3 S2000's and an Atronic on the 22's. Only other consideration to me would be the height of your ceiling and whether you see very tall machines in your future (like a Barcrest with a topper) or many of the newer machines. Btw, mine are all ex casino stands so there is no "normal" size I guess. :133-
