Hi! Can anyone verify what specific lengths the Cado wall unit "rails" were made in? I recently purchased a unit with 3 bays and 4 rails, and some of the rails do not appear to be from the same original set. I am also trying to verify that the entire unit is made of teak (a challenge). One of the rails is so dark in color, it has me wondering. Also, none of the rails have authenticity markings. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

The dark rail is very likely Afrormosia. The others appear to be teak. The Cado units I

Wow thank you Waldorf! This answers my question. That also happens to be the brochure that goes with the unit I bought (Bar cabinet, 3 drawer shelf, and the larger and smaller cabinets with sliding glass doors). Have a great day!

My last question: Does anyone know if Cado rails will typically have the "Made In Denmark" stamp located on them?

as far as i know, yes.

mostly the stamp is on the backside, but sometimes, like on my z-rails, they have only small paperlables.

Another question: Any idea if the rails with rounded ends are better/more desirable than the rails with flat ends? I'm guessing they're probably just from different time periods but I'm curious. Thanks in advance!
