Chalet Log Cabin
Available in various sizes
All included in the standard kit with our garden buildings !!
Note: All cabins 5.0 or less wide can be manufactured with a ridge height of 2.5m which allows it to be constructed without planning permission as close as 500mm to your boundary. See our guide to planning permission here.
If you require this cabin to be manufactured with a maximum height of 2.5m, please advise at point of purchase.
All glazing is supplied as "plain" glass. Georgian bars are supplied with the kit and can be fitted as required.
Note :
All our doors and windows can be supplied as "plain" glass, ie with no Georgian bars. The additional charge for this is £220.00 per cabin
We offer you the option to have toughened glass installed into the fully glazed double doors.
All windows and single door units are pre-mounted in their frame. The frame sits in the wall opening and the framing boards then "sandwich" the frame to hold it in position - this allows the wall logs to move independently of the frame. Double doors work in the same way, but you are required to put the pre-cut frame together and screw the corners to hold it together.
Type - 30/40. 70m long
Note - some boards may be finger jointed
Note - Only supplied with 44 and 68mm cabins
Tidies up the join between roof boards and walls

We are currently using Barrattine Wood Preserver to treat the external surfaces of the log cabins. We have been impressed with its properties not least the fact that it is oil based and has a number of colour options, including clear. For this cabin, we calculate you will need a total of litres to apply a minimum of two coats to the external surfaces. We can supply this at a cost of £
The colour swatches are an indication only and representative of the product applied to clean new/pale timber. The final colour finish can vary considerably due to the age, type & condition of the timber being treated. We always recommend carrying out a test area first in an inconspicuous area to make sure you are happy with the final dried colour.
A high-quality, low odour oil/Spirit wood preservative which is deep penetrating. Barrettine wood preserver is used for wood protection against wood destroying fungi (wet rot), wood discolouring fungi and wood boring insects. Provides a semi-transparent matt/satin finish allowing the natural wood texture to be visible. Can be used on pressure treated wood, treated timber or untreated wood. Suitable for rough, sawn or smooth timber, does not require over sealing for wood protection.
No subsequent top coat product required unless for aesthetic purposes. For outdoor use and also for use on windows/frames, external doors/frames (internal and external sections). The Barrettine clear wood preserver can also be used on structural timbers in unoccupied areas such as floor joists.
Application
Can be sprayed using an airless sprayer such as a Wagner or Graco ideally using a minimum 1mm flat fan tip nozzle (9 - 11 thou tip). The sprayer must be thoroughly cleaned after application with white spirit and then oiled to protect the tip and moving parts (as per manufacturer's instructions). This product cannot be sprayed with a traditional pump action garden sprayer.
