Extra Vision Display Cases
Extra vision cases use a stepped, multi-tier design so every shelf angles slightly toward the customer, keeping small items visible without anyone leaning over the case. The 6FT-Extravision Showcase measures 20“(L) x 70”(W) x 38“(H) with a 4” kick base and a 34" glass viewing area, built on an all-aluminum frame with three adjustable glass shelves. It ships in Silver or Black, includes a lock and keys, and ships unassembled with assembly support available by calling 361-339-0323. Pricing runs $429.00 to $549.00 depending on configuration, with an LED lighting upgrade available for an additional $75.00 and an extra shelf and bracket set for $29.99.
This is the style to choose when product detail matters. Jewelry, watches, small electronics, and collectibles all benefit from the stepped sightline that extra vision provides.
Economy Full Vision Display Cases
Economy full vision cases prioritize affordability and simplicity over specialized features. Built with tempered glass panels in a lightweight aluminum frame, they use a standard front sliding door with a lockable latch and a single adjustable interior shelf. The Full Vision Showcase 4’ is $249.00 and the Full Vision Showcase 6’ is $275.00, both available in standard widths of 24, 36, and 48 inches. Assembly is a simple bolt-together design that most retailers can complete without special tools.
This is the right choice for small retailers, boutiques, and new stores that need a functional, secure display without a large upfront investment. It is also the category most of Store Display Fixture’s budget-focused customers land in first.
Frameless Display Cases
Frameless cases remove all visible metal framing between glass panels, using tempered safety glass with polished edges for a clean, modern look. The Frameless Showcase - 4ft measures 48“L x 18”W x 38“H with a 32” vertical display area, two 14" tempered glass shelves built from 6mm tempered safety glass, and a sliding glass door with a lock. It is available in Gray, Black, Cherry, Maple, Walnut, or White for $429.00. A corner configuration, the 42"-Frameless Corner Case, is priced at $485.00.
Frameless cases suit jewelry stores, art galleries, and upscale boutiques where the display fixture itself is part of the store’s premium presentation, since the tempered glass is just as durable as framed alternatives despite the minimal look.
Which One Should You Choose?
- Choose extra vision if your product needs a stepped, close-up sightline and you are willing to pay $429 and up for that presentation.
- Choose economy full vision if you need a secure, budget-friendly case fast, and simple single-shelf storage is enough for your product line.
- Choose frameless if your brand image depends on a premium, minimal look, and $429 to $485 fits your fixture budget.
Expert Tips
- Order the LED lighting upgrade on extra vision cases if the product is jewelry, cigars, or vape hardware, since lit product outperforms unlit product in these categories.
- Confirm your color option before ordering frameless cases, since the finish (Gray, Black, Cherry, Maple, Walnut, White) affects how the case reads against your existing fixtures.
- Ask about assembly support when ordering, since both extra vision and frameless cases ship unassembled.
- Use economy full vision cases for secondary or overflow display, and reserve extra vision or frameless for your primary sales counter.
Common Mistakes
- Choosing economy full vision for a jewelry counter where the single shelf and standard glass undersell the product.
- Skipping the LED upgrade on an extra vision case and then wondering why it does not photograph or display as well as a competitor’s.
- Assuming frameless glass is more fragile than framed cases, when both use tempered safety glass rated for daily retail use.
- Not confirming ships-unassembled status before ordering, then being caught without an installation plan.

Which display case is best for jewelry?
Extra vision and frameless cases are both strong choices for jewelry. Extra vision’s stepped shelving shows detail well, while frameless delivers a more premium, minimal look.

Yes. Economy full vision cases use tempered glass and an aluminum frame, the same base materials used across Store Display Fixture’s higher-priced lines, just with simpler shelving and door hardware.
Do frameless display cases cost more than framed cases?
Not necessarily. The Frameless Showcase - 4ft is priced at $429.00, comparable to the 6FT-Extravision Showcase’s $429.00 starting price, though frameless cases typically hold less shelving.

Store Display Fixture’s frameless showcase is available in Gray, Black, Cherry, Maple, Walnut, and White finishes.
Do these display cases ship assembled?
No. The extra vision and frameless showcases both ship unassembled. Call 361-339-0323 Ext. 2 to discuss assembly options for online orders.
Conclusion
The right display case comes down to what your product needs and what your budget allows. Economy full vision covers the budget end, extra vision adds stepped sightlines for detail-heavy product, and frameless delivers the cleanest, most premium look. All three use the same core materials from Store Display Fixture, so the decision is about presentation and shelving rather than durability.
