Forest Wrekin Log Cabin

Product Details

Wrekin Log Cabin Style and Appearance

The Wrekin Log Cabin is part of the Forest garden range of log cabins. It has the appearance of a traditional log cabin and includes a 700mm covered area which provides some shelter from sun and rain alike. The building is divided into two, and therefore features two glazed double doors and a single privacy door to the front of the building

Building’s Construction

Firstly the timber wall sections are made from 34mm machined logs. Both the floor and roof use 19mm tongue and groove (TGV) boards. The building is supplied with mineral felt shingles for the apex style roof. Both windows and the double doors are single glazed. The utility, or storage, area to the side has a lockable fully boarded door. All three doors are secured with mortise locks
It is vitally important that the log cabin is placed on pressure treated bearers to ensure the timbers are not in ground contact. These timbers are included as part of the log cabin kit. More details are in the building assembly instructions, downloadable as a pdf from this page

Supplied Finish and Painting

All the timber in this Log Cabin has been kiln dried to minimise warping and splitting. The floor bearers are pressure treated with an Osmose timber preservative because they will be in contact with the ground. The rest of the structure is supplied untreated. Consequently this allows the customer to choose their preferred brand and colour of timber preservative. We stock Osmo, Liberon and Ronseal products to treat products accordingly. When selecting your timber finish you will find some low priced finishes are for sawn timber only. Finally ensure your chosen finish is suitable for use with planed and sawn timber if required.
